St. Louis-Style Pizza feels like somebody intentionally designed a pizza style to start arguments online. Ultra-thin crust. Square slices. And Provel cheese, which melts into this creamy, smoky situation that outsiders either adore instantly or reject with visible confusion.
There is no safe middle ground with this pizza.
Fans defend St. Louis-style with an almost alarming level of passion because they’ve spent their entire lives being told their pizza is “wrong.” That underdog energy matters in a bracket like this. Nobody rides harder for their local pizza style than people from St. Louis.
Compared to Detroit-style, it’s dramatically thinner and lighter. Compared to New York pizza, it barely even behaves like traditional pizza at all. That’s exactly why it works here. Safe contenders don’t create legendary matchups.
If this style makes it deep into the rankings, the comment sections are going to look like a sports rivalry forum. Honestly, that feels correct.
