Chicago residents are beginning to accept Detroit-style pizza, which features caramelized square edges and a buttery crust. These pizzas include Wisconsin brick cheese and take inspiration from traditional Sicilian squares. Unique to local offerings, enhancements like fennel-forward sausage set the pies apart. New eateries like Pizza Pushers use a focaccia base for their dough, while The Beer Temple partners with Middle Brow to create distinct artisanal pies. Both establishments highlight the growing appreciation for Detroit-style pizzas within the city.
