Old Forge pizza is an American pizza variety originating from Old Forge in Northeast Pennsylvania. This former mining town has a unique style of pizza that's baked on rectangular metal pans, and the crust is lighter than a typical thick crust. The pizza is crispy on the bottom, while the center is chewy.
A whole pizza is called a tray (not a pie), and there are no slices, only cuts. There are two varieties of Old Forge pizza – red and white. The red one has a slightly sweet tomato sauce and sometimes contains diced onions, while the toppings include a blend of cheeses such as American cheese, cheddar, and mozzarella.
The white variety is stuffed (dough on top and bottom) with lots of cheese and any fillings that the customers choose, such as broccoli and spinach. No sauce is allowed inside the white pizza, and the top layer is sometimes covered in thin onion slices and herbs such as rosemary.
