Chicago knows how to make pizza. Chicago style with the sauce on top...nummers! I used to eat Totinos all the time Nic. Great drunk food.

Chicago style pizza isn't pizza. Neither is a calzone. I like both for what they are though.

That's like me saying Memphis style barbecue is not real barbecue. It's completely different from slow smoked brisket, which is my favorite, but it's still barbecue.

Has to be boston butt to be Que and it has to be New York style to be pizza. You just can't argue that. 'cause you'd be wrong.
I could argue your barbecue point all day long. Pork ribs are okay, but that's where it stops. That shredded crap with sauce poured all over it ain't "real" barbecue, IMO. Real barbecue is brisket.
You generally have to go west of the Red river to understand real BBQ. And it's beef brisket, chicken, pork ribs and sausage. I didn't even know about pulled pork until my thirties. Then there's Cabrito and Barbacoa to consider.
I remember going to Uno's in downtown Chicago, quite a few years ago and before they became a chain. I fell in love with deep dish pizza.
