There’s pizza, and then there’s pizza pie. This Chicago-Style Deep Dish Pizza earns the name with its 1 1/2"-tall crust, which cradles layers of cheese, sausage, and pizza sauce in a substantial, sliceable pie. Baked in an 11" deep dish pizza pan, it makes a spectacular centerpiece straight from the oven.
