    Finally tried the “Upside Down Jawn” from Angelo’s in South Philly. Every bit as good as advertised.


    Looks right side up to me. You should have flipped her over.

    ^^ :lol: It’s called upside down because the cheese is under the sauce. And it was a thick layer of cheese too. You could feel the “squeak” of biting down on it. Yum.

    One year when they were still in Haddonfield my wife wanted Angelo's for her birthday.  We had a bunch of guests so I brought back something like 4 pies and 2-3 Sammies.

    We ate like hogs for a number of days after

    Shit was not cheap thought, for pizza.
    Yeah, $31 for one pie.

    That pie looks amazing and the pepperoni is cooked to perfection. Slightly burnt on the edges to crisp it up. Wow. What is the actual size of that thing, roughly?

    Well the pizza box is 16”x16” and it went the whole way out to the edge of the box on all sides, so about that big. Not to mention it was well over 1” thick. Even after breakfast there’s still 4 cuts left.

    Hell yeah! Girlfriend ate it cold and I went toaster oven. Might have to be breakfast again tomorrow too, because I’m not sure if I can go another round today.

    That’s a pretty good size pie. Makes sense that half does the trick for a couple people. Thick pies like that are filling AF. When I eat deep dish a couple triangle slices is about all I got.

    Oh yeah. Even Pizza Hut’s pan pizza is very filling.

    Great looking Sicilian.
    The 💩 looks good, as well, but I don't know about the Al dente onions.  Is that an option or just how they do it there?

    That's just on this one particular specialty pizza, regular onions are not that way.

    Lot of good looking pizza! Question...philly pizza was just mentioned. How does Philly stack up against NY/NJ pizza?

    Those thicker crusts pizzas look great in the photos. I am sure they are delicious. But I always have to go with a thin and crispy crust.

    It is in the pizza belt.  From what I have experienced it is definitely good but it has been so long since I had a slice there that my opinion is probably outdated.

    I didn’t realize this. I was a little confused when I noticed the pizza box said “est. 2013” I thought that was odd for such a recent place to be so well known. Makes sense now. Thanks for the history lesson!

    I remember in college we used to go to a place called Lorenzo's on South Street.  I remember that we all used to think it was the greatest pizza on the planet.  The slices were huge!  It was  real serious place, no parm so don't ask. lol
    No clue if it is still there.

    Tried my first ever crack at making made from scratch pies. Went with the basic Margarita style. I love fresh out of the garden basil:

    Looking real good bud!! With nearly 3 acres you have plenty of room to put a pizza oven out back!

    I love that they didn’t have parm! Adding parm is overkill and ruins a good pizza. Kind of like ketchup on hot dogs.

    A pizza oven is DEFINITELY in the plans! Thinking maybe a 14x14 screened in covered porch with pizza oven alongside a fireplace w/ chimney. Complete with a ceiling fan and a TV.

    Nice work on those pizzas!

    Lorenzo's is still there.  They sell at Wells Fargo, as well.  Nothing like watching the two plate slices go down.
    Their spot is across from Jim's, so you can do the Philly Taco.  (Nasty stuff, I do not want to try that)
