Binging with Babish: Chicago-Style Pizza from The Daily Show

Someone get Trevor Noah to go on a rant about low-carb protein bowls, I'm trying to lose some weight over here.

i'm waiting for the brisket from the marvelous mrs maisel

Babish: *uses pre-grated Parmesan*
Comments: you have become the very thing you swore to destroy

I watched this video earlier this morning. It’s night now and I want deep dish

Wow he really gotta say that to California pizza. But Chicago pizza is better though

I am a European and I say that's blasphemy!

*Stands up*
NY STYLE ALL DAY

Canned onions, wot...

This looks like a Marinara sauce and cheese tart. I'm pretty sure you can't define that "a pizza".
Ps: we italians basically look at NY pizza the same way newyorkers look at Chicago pizza

The only thing that’s not pizza is St. Louis style pizza, I live in stl and I despise stl style, pizza is the only thing Chicago does better, we’re a more dangerous city with shitty pizza

if its not Italian pizza its not pizza its a diabetes ball of cheese and sugar.

I worked in 3 pizza places between the ages of 17 and 24. Chicagoans don't cook the sauce.

So Babish just always has his apron on anytime he goes somewhere.... he deserves the golden spatula for being so dedicated

This man went out , in the streets , with a jacket over the apron . That’s dedication !

I don’t really care about deep dish or New York style pizza I like my pizzas thick, firm on the outside, soft on the inside, and with cheese and pepperoni 👌🏻

Me, a proud Californian: You got a problem with California Pizza?

...just kidding, I don't really care that much about pizza opinions. Pizza is pizza to me, no matter how you slice it.

Literally the best pizza in existence

That tomato paste (not because it’s in a tube) looks like Paint it’s so red

Chicago is stuffed pizza... Detroit is deep dish...New York is a flat pie....and any pizza made in Canada is a "Manitoba sauce bread".....it's simple folks, you're welcome, no need to build a statue. It's a Civic duty

"It's not pizza, therefore it sucks." - Jon Stewart
By *that* logic, prime rib, a French omelet cooked by Jacques Pepin, cheeseburgers, burritos, donuts, pulled pork, smoked salmon, fried chicken, macaroni and cheese, etc. all suck too. Deep dish pizza may or may not be pizza, but whatever it is, it's delicious.

I bet your kitchen smells like Rosati’s.

Real New Yorkers love all Pizza but hold New York style to a higher standard, so no shame here.

Here from Spider-Man 2

This is why Seppos are fat 😂

i don't really get the hate between new york and chicago. if you like both pizza styles, you just have more pizza!

You should make a book called The Clean Plate Club and fill it with your clean plate club members, whether they’re from the show or exclusives to your own tastes. maybe even get some interviews with chefs you love about the dishes in their restaurants that have earned a spot.

Been wanting to make one of these for a long time.



Finally did it!


Came out very good.



Didn't have a cast iron pan, so used an all-clad.



Had trouble getting the dough to stick up on the sides; kept sliding down.


Could not get the pie out of the pan in one piece. Ended up taking it out slice by slice.


Will make this again indeed.

*Gino’s has entered the chat*

All pizza is good even New York style, HOWEVER Chicago style deep dish is the best pizza there is

Thank God outside Pizza Huts, we don't have this kind of Abomination here in Europe...

Im from illinois, not chicago tho. And lemme tell ya, sweet sauce annoys the crap out of me for some reason. I have no idea why.

Anybody know how he measured the flour? Top of scale or cup?

Are the dry ingredients for the dough measured by weight or volume? (This is a perfect example of why we just need to switch to metric.)

New York pizza > chicago deep dish

Most controversial pizza? When I was in Japan we went to a Cajun-themed pizza buffet place that had a mayo pizza. Maybe its just that I can only at best tolerate mayo, but I found the idea pretty terrible.

After deep dish pizza
Italian people : this is personal attack on us

Detroit style for the win! :)

As a Californian... yeah you ain’t wrong. But at least we got good Mexican and Asian food.

If you could try making Michigan style pizza which is the complete beta pizza out there

He totally liked it

New York wants to know your location

Italians must be thinking what they have done

All this time people ignore what Detroit calls pizza

Listen to him speak like a successful Bob Belcher, both food and terrible dad jokes

3:56
I never knew that he can make that kind of sound

I'm sorry but that legit looked like a cake when you took it out

St Louis style pizza so much better

Babish: Ight whiz hungry
Friends: what’s on the menu
Babish: some fat ass deep dish pizza I got from a tv show
