Detroit-style pizza is a square pizza characterized by a thick deep-dish crisp crust and inverted toppings. Cheese is applied directly to the top of the dough, followed by a thick tomato sauce that is seasoned with garlic and spices. The most common topping is pepperoni, put either on top of the sauce or buried underneath the cheese.

Detroit-style pizza can be traced back to Buddy's Rendezvous in 1946, and thanks to its popularity, it is now available nationwide. This dish is best paired with beer or wine.
