@@ghettochicken8420 proper fox croft lad, love it
This is the first comment on every video that’s not mma 🎉
@@astronut1728 and ill keep it that way
@@astronut1728 Chicago pizza is MMA tho
Chael just in passing mentioning he stole money as he explains why camping is weird to him and transitioning to picking up the uncut pizza is some of his best content in a while.
“Son, do you have something to offer?” Imagine having Chael as your dad. Those three kids hit the life lottery.
Imagine if his son said, “I only offer you this, because”

“It’s a pizza with salad on it” , perfect ! 😂😂😂
Best 7 min review on the worst pizza 😂😂😂😂
lol i was laughing when he lifted it up. bring your own knife, i guess.
2-3 years ago Chael was out of town and did a video telling us he was going to get a deep dish pizza and give us his thoughts on it, we never got that follow up video. This is opening up old wounds for me.
I’m still waiting on the follow up to when his wife hit his car😭
Lol. I thought this was going to be the follow-up..
Edit: Bro... This is the follow-up video
I’m glad it’s not just me 😂😩
Chael to the pizza: i can't let you get close.
Chael describing chicago like going camping has me rolling.
Chael with the Elvis glasses talking about pizza on a Sunday. I’ll take it
"By not cutting the pizza, they are passing that savings on to you" - Badger, Breaking Bad, 2008
Chael you have to do more of these truly. Portnoy has nothing on this. Also this is incredible like always.
Being born and raised in Chicago it's a huge misconception that we only eat Deep Dish Pizza. Deep Dish isn't bad but we have some of the best "tavern style pizza" and normal "New York style pizza" in the world. Very few people eat only Deep Dish
Chael, my Dad who grew up in Chicago (Uptown) in the 50's would tell you Chicago pizza is not deep dish. It's thin and the crust is crisp. Brick oven and cut into squares. Italian sausage, green peppers, mushrooms, black olives when you're in the mood for them, and a little well done. That is a Chicago pizza to us.
Deep dish is for the tourists. We know the real shit
Tell em. Real chicago natives dont even eat deep dish, we all know that shit is ass, italian fiesta thin crust pizza no matter what toppings you get is a hit😭
@@wavxyshaun8799 My wife is from the suburbs and I can confirm this as well. Little place called turnabout in Lemont is FIRE.
But the people that work there are fucking assholes lol
That's bar pizza not Chicago pizza
Similar in Milwaukee, but not over crisp, a little cruch, but you can still fold it.
the bank robbery reference is so funny
Love that Chael’s family is just chillin in the background like dad hurry up so we can go get some new eats 😂
“ Worked and stole “ lmaoo
No way this man just described going to Chicago like going camping 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
You did have the Lori weirdo as your Mayor. Sounds pretty spot on if you ask me!
Camping is muuuuch more nice, enjoyable & is eons more safe than Chiraq with all the demonrat zombies running around playing like they are fair-minded & use an actual thought process.🤖
🏠👹🐀🏠
Going to any big city is far worse than going camping, there's so many human cockroaches you have to deal with.
Halfway through this video and I suddenly realise I'm watching Chael Sonnen talk about Pizza and start cracking up
Lmao man I love Chicago style pizza and camping. I feel like the gangster is singling me out. That or I need to reevaluate my life.
No just your pizza habits
Chael food rants are some of my favorite content.
I live in Chicago and also dislike Lou Malnati's, I've always hated when people say it's the best pizza in Chicago because I know they'll be disappointed, the best pizzas are the hidden gem pizza joints outside of the city, but if you want to go main stream, Giordanosl's stuffed pizza or Connie's deep dish is where it's at
Chicago "pizza" isn't pizza, it's a casserole.
🤣
best rant of all time
When ordering takeout or delivery, Lou Malnati‘s gives you the option to have the pizza cut or not cut. If you don’t cut it it’s supposedly keeps the pizza crispier and more fresh rather than if you do cut it.
You must have been talking to transplants or tourists. No Chicagoan will tell you Lou malnatis is the best for thin crust. You only get deep dish from Lou’s. There’s 1 million mom and pop pizza places in Chicago to get better thin crust.
😂 Chael being a little generous and his son just tells it like it is, “it’s gross”
The Other Place Was Prob Giordanos. both Of Those Are Mid Level Compared To Pequods( Chicago North Side) For Deep Dish Or Home Run Inn(All Around Chicagoland) For Regular Thin Crust Pizza
I like how he pronounces Lou Malnati's as "Luminati" lol
I'm from Chicago, originally. Pizzas always came cut when I lived there. There are tons of exellent pizza places. That's just weird. I'm confused, Lou Malnotti's is well known, as are Duey's and Uno's (3 most famous Chi-town pizzareias). I'm sorry that happened to you guys. What a disappointment that must have been. What a shame.
Thanks for clarifying this. I thought he was saying "Illuminati's."
Isn't Giordino's/Giordano's their top deep dish spot?
@@TheCaliRhino giordanos is trash too. Deep dish sucks. Chicago thin crust Is where it’s at.
I've personally for at least a decade do uncut when I'm getting pizza delivered or carrying out.
It prevents the grease, sauce and condensation (from going to a hot oven into a room temp box) from softening up the pizza.
Uncut helps prevent this saturation so you can still have a nice crispy crust by the time your ready to eat it.
Lou's in the last year or so recommends doing uncut because of what I mention above. If you ever had Lou's brought home they're hot as hell and it basically turns into a steam bath while it waits for you to enjoy it. add the little bit of grease and sauce flowing downward and you have a nice soft pizza instead of that phenomenal crisp.
Id highly recommend pizza uncut if the pizza has to travel. That goes for deep dish or thin crust.
I do know some people who just get off on complaining about how bad something is and that's where the cut pizza comes in. It completely degrades the quality of a traveling pizza leaving someone with plenty to complain about in terms of consistency.
@@bigchedds8389I suppose that make sense, if had gotten an uncut pizza I would have just assumed they messed up.
We actually need more of these uncle Chael 👍🏼
AURELIOS is where u need to go for thin crust uncle chael (Illinois native)
Portnoy blasted Aurelios. I think it got the worst chicago area review of all time.
@@charlesfinnegan7930 I like sweet sauce and Portnoy has a bias against the Midwest did anything in the city get above an 8.5?
That pizza looked horrendous...wow
The last time you did a food video out of a hotel room (spaghetti), 9 people almost died hours later and we became twitter penpals
Walking through my neighborhood. Laughing like a lunatic as Uncle chail explains what deep dish pizza actually is.
From Chicago. Have gotten Lou’s countless times, never gotten the thin crust but never had the cutting issue. Another place is called pequods pizza which has a lighter crust and more of a local known place
The real ones know Pequod’s is the spot to go to.
Pequods is bomb. People from the city go to Burt’s Place in the burbs for pizza also. Even Anthony Bourdain went there.
@@spidey677 Peaquods, Burts and gullivers were all started by burt RIP.
@@charlesfinnegan7930 gullivers pizza in rogers park closed during the pandemic. That place had bomb pizza.
If you're in Chicago, try Ninos, Rosatis, Giordano's, Gino's East, and Mug's Pizza and Tortorice's pizza
How DARE Chicago call that…. PIZZA.
SAID! The New Yorker!
I desperately needed THIS particular piece on content today
Chicago isn’t only know for deep dish, we always have amazing thin crust, do some better research chael
In the famous words of Badger from BB, "they don't cut the pizza and they pass the savings on to you"
If the pizza’s not cut it’s for throwing on the roof everybody knows the rules.
In Italy, they don’t cut the pizza for you either and you’re expected to eat it with a knife and fork like locals
Savages
I can't believe that you made me watch this, Chael you're good 😂
If by some misfortune you happen to be going through Steubenville, Ohio or Wheeling, WV you should try DeCarlos pizza. It's a style called Ohio Valley Pizza.
They bake a full sheet pan of crust and sauce. When you order they cut as many pieces as you like, put it in a box, put all of the toppings on, and send you on your way. It's interesting. I like it. The cheese warms up from the crust but doesn't really melt. It just gets soft.
Fun fact: Deep dish pizza is for tourists and maybe once in 3-4 month thing for locals. But thin pies were on the list weekly for natives. A sad fact i've found is that the pizza quality overall isnt as good as it was back in the 70's - 90's. Also, pizza life, especially chicago tavern style (thin crust) is VERY short. After 13-15 minutes from the oven, quality degrades at an exponential rate....grew up on the Southside of the city
Local here, Lou Malnati’s sucks - everyone who claims it’s the best is speaking of their deep dish slop. Then you have the thin crust which is god awful. They’re quite literally the last place I’d get pizza from in any form especially in the city.
Chael (to the pizza box): Can't let you get closed
Uncle Chael showing his papa Chael side is awesome.
you’re making chicago enemies for life now unc
Cheal should run ufc
Chael done had it with Chicago's shenanigans haha 😂😂😂
Chicago deserves a smack from -Uncle- _Lord_ Chael's pimp hand
Luminati's = Lou Malnati's 😂🤣
Chael my man, Lou's is the best deep dish which you clearly didn't get. The best thin crust is Pallarmos on 95th. Keep up the great videos!
Chael breaking down camping was perfect
Chael if people are talking about their deep dish it sounds like that’s the fair thing to judge them by. You could say it’s a variation of lasagna if you want but it’s still the correct dish to judge off of.
"I didnt get a deep dish bc I didnt want lasagna" is such a great promo to cut on Chicago pizza.
Try Edwardos
Chael too good for camping, I have to reevaluate our relationship
As a Chicagoan, I am extremely offended by this video, yet highly entertained. Proceed….
Just here to say I fucking love Lou Malnati’s lol their deep dish is fire
One of the rare bad takes from the West Linn legend
100%
Look again, Chael has no bad takes.
It might be a bad take but I can't argue that it wasnt a bad experience. I been eating Malnatis and other chicago pizza for 40 plus years and have never seen one that looked that bad. I would be pissed.
As a displaced st louisan I’ve learned Chicago people don’t eat deep dish. Flat crust all the way.
We do eat it but usually at graduation parties or work outings etc. For friday night pizza thin crust always.
After speaking to you for 30 seconds, they decided not to cut your pizza and probably gave you some free extras you didn't want.
Uncle Chael did the right thing with the thin crust but you went to the wrong place lol
Lesson learned. Don’t let Chicago pizza get close.
CHAEL YOURE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT 👍
I have "heard" that deep dish is for tourists in CHICAGO. Thin crust pizza is the real chicago pizza. And Parlors is the place to go.
Chael’s going to start reviewing the top pizza spots in West Lynn after all the positive feedback on this one
A moment of silence for chael's kids having a dad rant extend to the interwebs
If you want to piss Chael off, tell him that he's going on a camping trip where he's forced to eat pizza that isn't pre-sliced.
"what he's trying to say"= dads rambling again
There's only NEW YORK Pizza and nothing else
NY Pizza sucks. If I am going out east, CT is where.
@@charlesfinnegan7930 oh please. You know you're capping
@@Platypus-Dreams CT pizza is better in every way than NY. They both focus on crust but CT uses better ingredients for the sauce cheese and toppings.
@@charlesfinnegan7930 I've been to CT. You don't know what you're talking about.
someone needs to invent pizza scissors
Just use a pair of Fiskars like a normal person.
Tinsnips do the trick.
Chael out here like a rapper dropping a dis track on Chicago
They might have a high crime rate and bad Pizza but at least property taxes are low .
My god… I’m actually caught up watching a chael pizza review.
He did it in another video to, but I love the camping reference. Why am I going to go from my place to a less nice place snd call it a vacation.😂
having it uncut is an option at Lou’s. Your friend must’ve ordered them that way for you.
The whole time I thought the pizza place was called illuminati 😂😂
At this point, Chael is just a vlogger.
😂😂😂
Always been
lol this has to be a promo, uncle chael is fighting someone from Chicago 😅
Chael 100% puts ketchup on his hot dogs
This is why we subscribe this is there content we want people!
Remember you're in the midwest Chael, that's a pizza casserole lol
It not being cut is cracking me up lol
Chicago deep dish pizza was originated in Poland, settled very well in Chicago as as there's huge Polish community.
im so happy to be from the north east. the " Pizza Belt".. Cheal i have traveled the country and it isn't even up for debate.. the north east has the best pizza per capita by miles and miles and miles.
lous is gas. native tip: get butter crust and scoop a tiny bit of the sauce of the top before you eat it (with your hand. dont be a nini)
Hope all is well uncle Chael
Why would you order any other pizza besides UNO if you are visiting Chicago...I am questioning your judgement here Unc!
Ive never seen a hotel room half that size. Must be the Godfather suite
P.S. if you ordered it via mobile phone, you choose to have it cut or not.
No one but tourists eat stuffed pizza and say Lou Malnatis is the best. Chisago style pizza is pub style thin crust pizza. So tired of lazy media not investigating.
This content is, as always, top tier.
The Bad Guy Reviews Pies….the natives of Chicago owe Chael for getting their pie situation sorted.
I love that he called it "Loomanahtees". Same misprononciation as my lovely wife. Undefeated, undisputed.
For what it's worth...I like Giordano's better than Loomanahtees
Lol plot twist Chaels son is the real GOAT
The circle pub style square cut pizza is the pizza Chicagoans hide from the tourists. Get that style next time!
Might be a losing battle, but I wouldn't let the kids walk barefoot on a hotel carpet.
Chael, your first problem is asking taxi drivers. Youre obviously not a midwest city boy. Tax drivers are going to take you to tourist traps and they probably get a kick back from the restaurant for dropping you off there. What you need to do is find a heavy set local and ask them where the good pizza joints are. Many are the hole in the wall spots. You also get the most bang for your buck at those.
Honesty baby!😂😂😂
in no way, shape or form did that even come remotely close to a good pizza, I award Chicago no points, and may god have mercy our soul.
