What makes it Detroit-Style? It all starts with the crust – deep and thick in composition but also light and airy in taste. Unique shape and one-of-a-kind flavor are given to the steel square pans (borrowed from the car industry). The toppings are laid backward, implying that they lay the gourmet pepperoni directly on the hand-stretched dough. Next comes a generous layer of Wisconsin Brick Cheese, which extends all the way to the pan's edges. The resulting caramelized cheese gives an incredibly crisp crust. The top is finished with racing stripes of tomato sauce.
Detroit-Style Pizza has expanded beyond Buddy's to become a national phenomenon that can be found from Brooklyn to Denver to Los Angeles.
