Going with the perfectly cooked pie that delivers on flavor and heat, and looks like a work of art...

Essegi!

Look at those colors! So often people forget how color plays into what we eat. Look at the bright purples and greens. Oh yeah I love Sicilian olives. You could have easily gone with black olives and white onions but nope. The reds, oranges, and whites of the sauce, meat and cheese. Buffa mozz? Sure win. The fresh green basil, not just garnish, rounds out the fresh flavors.

Love how the onions melted into that pie. I saw your trick. Marinate in olive oil etc. one hour. You didn't saute them you just let them marinate and break down. Man they really flattened out and melted into it, not one raised onion. Love that trick. Stealing it.

Garlic on the base. Naples pepperoni for the meat lovers. Veg for the veg lovers, and perfect balance. Fresh, cured. And heat. Trinidad scorpion peppers. Awesome! A pie that delivers on heat.

The new kid on the block is my new pizza favorite.

PIC 1 thanks for making one of my favorite pies, the grandma. You did it justice.

DTS - Kudos for not cooking the prosciutto! You know the deal. You don't crisp a meat that's been aging a year. I do it just like you. The hot pie heats it up just enough to sweat it.

frydad4 gets the innovation nod!

All look good, for real. But one did it for me. That's my kinda pie.
