    Sir if you came up with this you need an award. I have been making pizza at home for years and this never crossed my mind. It's perfect for when my kids have friends over.
    My starter is being fed post haste! To the Man cave Robin!

    Very nice idea! As a native Chicagoen, I would sprinkle cornmeal in the muffin tin before adding the dough. I make Chicago style pizza often, but we fill it with spinach, most often. I would probably have to add it to the sauce here to keep it from being too wet. This looks great though. Will certainly use it for a party.

I was compelled to return to my original comment and add that: the details in Chef’s technique are freak’n fabulous, and, even prior to my first attempt at this recipe, I can see that Chef John REALLY TRYS to ensure our collective success on our first attempts! He IS the best at conveying his ideas and techniques to me and my fellow “home chefs” world wide!)

    Just so you know, you can do something very similar with canned biscuits from the store. Flatten them out, put them in a muffin tin, and put whatever toppings you want in them and bake. I use leftover casserole in them. Great way to use up leftovers.

    Your pizza sauce recipe is literally the BEST. I always keep some in the freezer which makes it 10 times better. I wonder if you reheated these for a party the next day you could first oil the muffin pan and pop it into a 500 degree oven for a bit before putting the cold pizzaitas in and heating at 350. Maybe fry up that crust a bit for some crunchiness. I'm gonna try that.

    Hmm! Deep dish pizza! Delicious memories from a short trip to Chicago that I made in 2009. Strangely enough, ever since I had that kind of pizza, I became a fan of green bell peppers as a pizza ingredient (which I wasn't before). It does add a very tasty touch to it all. Cheers!

    Perhaps I am in the minority of viewers, but I mostly watch videos of recipes I intend to use. To wit, I hope the recent popularity and proliferation of impractical, novelty-hunting cooking channels does not unduly influence this channel. Because some of your shortest videos showcasing some of your simplest recipes have brought such joy to our home!
    Your honest approach, showing every step, has done so much to demystify cooking. You empower in the truest sense by sharing knowledge and teaching skills. And I am not commenting on this recipe in particular or any other recent video necessarily, but I hope that the fickle UA-cam algorithm which seems to increasingly serve and reward the worst natures of the UA-cam community does not doom you to making the kind of silly, overly elaborate, entirely impractical, best only watched and not recreated recipes which sadly seem to be the new hotness around here.
    Sorry to express my gratitude with a side of negativity and implied demands, but I guess what I mean to say is: I still think you're the best! And I hope you never change!! May you forever be the Sid Vicious of unpretentious but delicious!
