What do you mean by "American Style"? Do you mean deep dish, New York style, or some weird California flat bread thing?

American style is nothing to rave about.
It's just a clusterfuck of calories.
It's good if you're really stoned because it's so unhealthy.

all pizza is American-style

I haven't tried chef john's personally, but it's a starting point at least

>>11403372
Read the fucking filename you fucking newbornfaggot.

>>11403380
i cannot stand this guy's speech. it's so fucking frustrating i want to tear my eyes out

Use butter to lube the pan not oil. Lots of cheese around the edge. Seriously it helps keep the bread from sticking and tastes good when it burns. Cheese sauce cheese topping order.

>>11403364
this is a type of thing Americans usually order out, very few will have experience cooking it

>>11403364
>what kind of tips you can give me?
paint brush for the grease.

Detroit

>>11403364
its just pizza cooked in a cake pan. sure you can get "real detroit" pans but any decent rectangle/square metal cake pan will do. any flour/yeast/sugar dough will work. when the dough is ready you need olive oil and just grease the the fuck out of the pan, like really good, especially along the sides because that's where you want the cheese to sort of burn to the edges. just brush oil all the over place in the pan like your painting a house. throw the dough in and stretch the dough out to the edges and top with a good, thick, crushed tomato sauce then cheese and pepperoni. you want to bake in a hot as fuck oven, 500 degrees at the bottom rack, until done. takes about 20 minutes or so depending on the size of the pizza. make sure you really grease the pan because you want the cheese to stay intact when you go to get it out of the pan. loosen up the edges with thin metal spatula or run a knife around the edge can work too.

nobody will read this trash post.

>>11403364
Lol Detroit style. Might as well eat in the sewer.

Why don't you try Somalia style next?

>>11403364
That's literally the worst style of pizza in the US. Even Chicago thin crust is better.

>americans use pepperoni
>americans are too gay for pineapple
>americans don't eat chocolate pizza with cheese

Why would you want to eat something so boring?

>>11403364
tomato sauce, mozzarella, parmigiano reggiano and pepperonis on some thin yeast dough, bake at high temp

>>11403901
>American style pizza
>parmigiano reggiano

>>11403364
Just remember that Detroit is total nigger town

>>11403364
All American pizza is bad.
Detroit pizza is just normal pizza but square.
NY pizza is floppy uncooked cheese tomato bread.
Chicago tomato soup with cheese tastes good but isn't pizza.
Also they have a hard on for pizzas with no toppings, like pepperoni only or cheese only. Total bunch of manchildren.

Yes, yes, we get it. Someone always says it anytime John is so much as even just mentioned.

True Detroit style would be difficult to replicate without brick cheese.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brick_cheese

But you could do a close approximation with a recipe like this in a cast iron pan.

>>11403364
Just cram dough in a skillet or something and bake it
Use lots of butter

>>11404129
Maybe try actually eating NY pizza before saying these absolute bullshit lies you filthy mongrel

>>11403372
This picture is Detroit style you ignorant faggot fuck.

>>11404129
lol look at this retard. Are you American? You seem like an ignorant one posing as a European. I'm an American and I know that in Italy many pizzas are incredibly minimalist. Sometimes they only have a little cheese on them, sometimes they dont even have cheese at all. Its funny how 85% of people on this board dont know shit about food or culture yet pretend they do. Im american btw.

>>11404217
Also I'm an american if my post didnt make that clear.

>>11403364
Hey Finn. I live in the US and just made pizza.

Steps are make your bread using a simple like see 70-75% hydration dough. When you're ready to cook everything get your skillet pan on medium high.
I recommend doing it in a skillet on a stove top unless you have an oven that can get hot enough, like 550 and a pizza stone.

Get your dough out of the fridge after it has had enough time to proof.
Punch your fist through the middle and start running your hand along the edge and let gravity pull it down. Try and get it into the shape of a circle.
Also, your pan diameter will determine how much dough you need. I had 250g for a 12 inch pan.

You want your dough, wants you've stretched it out to be a little smaller than your pan.

Oil the pan lightly. Cook one side for just a minute so it will brown ever slightly. Remove the dough. Sprinkle flour and something like cornmeal an do ground up flax or something in the pan. Return the dough to the uncooked side so the slightly browned side is up.
Add your topping which is a Marinara sauce or any kind of red sauce, mozz, and a protein.

Cover the pan and let that shill out at medium to medium high with a cover until the cheese has completely melted.
Then you can move to an oven that's preheated to like 450 for 10 mins.

To finish you can broil and add fresh basil.

>>11403901 I agree with >>11404000
For American style, you need this bad boy

>>11404363
Should be more like
>80-90% real parmesan cheese and 10-20% plant fiber to prevent caking and increase shelf life

>>11404167
It's absolutely horrible though, I can't stand his videos at all.

>>11403364
you should already have the pan you need for this (metal cake pan), so look up a recipe, at least for the dough. For the sauce make or buy regular pasta sauce, add sugar and some extra oregano. I wouldn't buy only because I have no idea how Finnish red sauce compares to American

I think your problem is going to be finding pepperoni, especially the kind that cups like that. If you're not dead set on pepperoni you should be able to get pretty close

>>11403390
Sounds like something Charlie Kelly would make.

>>11404509
>buy regular pasta sauce, add sugar

>>11403364
That is Sicilian style pizza, not Detroit.

>everyone calling OP's pizza Detroit style even though Detroit style is round and the sauce is on top

Fucking retards

Add more yeast
Like twice as much
And more sugar
Let rise for an hour
Don't roll flat

>>11404700
He wants American style you dolt, not "authentico"

>>11404171
>brick cheese

That like government cheese?

>>11403372
Fucking idiot. Look at the picture dipshit. Does that look like New York shitty pizza?

>>11403472
I have and may try this later

>>11405232
No, it's cheddar but softer.

>>11403793
What is wrong with Detroit?

>>11407015
>What is wrong with Detroit?
all the white people left in the 70s and now it's a hellhole, or an 'ethnically diverse paradise' if you're an idiot leftist.
their food is just as shit as the city.

>>11407043
Hmm ok

The key is the caramelized crust, which needs to be baked at a high temp in a well oiled pan

To achieve this, you do not leave a "crust" or "pizza bone" like most traditional styles of pizza have, you make the entire dough uniform and flat topped, and cheesed/topped ALL THE WAY to the edge, the edges need to crisp and caremalize in the burning oil (earl)

>>11407043
I'm from Detroit, lived here for 30 years. You're an idiot from Wisconsin who's never even left his farm.

Detroit style pizza is the best pizza style. Detroit vs. Everyone. We'll kick any farmer or coaster ass straight down to hell. Our pizza is best, our coneys are best.

>>11404750
This is also true, it needs to be yeasty, very yeasty

T. worked at Jet's Pizza

>>11407208
>picking on Wisconsin

I thought you guys hated Ohio more than us. Anyways, Detroit (the city) may suck ass, but the pizza is sublime. We've got a Detroit style pizza joint in Madison that is to die for. The crust on Detroit pizza is out of this world. Don't know why it isn't talked about as much as Chicago or New York style.

>>11403364
Just buy a little caesars hot and ready like a normal person you mincing faggot

>>11407429
Little Caesars is the lowest possible tier of pizza

>>11407043
>all the white people left
the part your forgetting is that it was white flight...and it started earlier....1940s-50s blacks migrated to be apart of industry boom....they were redlined into shitty neighborhoods and when the racist whites decided to flee it fuced up the economy becuase the remaining population had too little money and power to maintain the inferstructure......detroit wouldnt have gone full shit if racist whites hadnt been pricks

>>11407043
by 1970 nearly half of detroits population, the bulk of its wealthy and middle class whites litteraly ditched .....white people ruined detroit

>>11407429
>>11407434
do they even have LC in Finland?

>>11403364
You have to use a cast iron parts tray seasoned with motor oil from a 80 year old car factory to get the correct flavor

>>11407526
It is ALWAYS the white man’s fault, there are no exceptions

>>11407571
They also build it.
