of course it is, it's the best thing around and new york pizza is only popular because those people have been gaslighted their entire lives. If I wanted a greasy floppy thing in my mouth I would visit long island.
Josephine outshined everyone up there with her personality smile and My Cousin Vinny "two yutes "Joe Pesci accent. Her pizza may not have made the grade among tasters but it damn sure looked more appetizing. Please give her her own show. I would watch/listen to her read a phone book. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I went to high school with a Farideh Sadeghin… but how many Farideh Sadeghins can there be in the world?? Yep, that’s the Farideh I went to high school with 😂 That’s awesome!
A friend of mine named Francesco is the type of guy you don't want to show this video. He'd probably sue america over this blasphemy, he's very intense and loves his italian cooking tradition. I don't know if he loves his mother to a weird extent but aside from that, he's THE italian clichee man and I love him dearly. He linked me to Sebastian Maniscalco and that guy is exactly what i needed in my life
@@annbacerra Bingo. There’s this notion that all pizza in Chicago is deep dish. There are very few deep dish pizza places that have been successful because deep dish is really hard to make in a tasteful way. We definitely have more thin crust pizza places here, pan pizzas, hand tossed… We understand what PIZZA is but a good deep dish pizza is special. It’s usually more expensive and ridiculously filling. On fridays I’ll get normal thin crust or hand tossed pizza. On my birthday or some family celebration we’ll spend money on Lou Malnati’s with the butter crust. Delicious food, whatever you want to call that thing. Like a good steak, I wouldn’t eat it every day. New Yorkers and general east coast people seem to think you can only get basic thin crust there. Hell, when you’re a kid here and make pizza with your mom for fun of course it’s going to be thin crust because that’s easier to make! Deep dish pizza is a specialty pizza and, yes, even in Chicago!
I LOVE Josephine’s accent and attitude!!! I’m from the Midwest, and she sounds like a stereotypical New Yorker, to me, but in the best possible way! GIVE HER A SHOW! And I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. 👍🏾
love the show but wish there was a bit more detail on the cooking side.. don't skip the good stuff for all who want to learn :) .. like how long was Nicole's pizza in the oven for and was it the same temp? and curious about Josephine's double crust.. i'm assuming it wasn't soggy at all but i'm afraid to try that haha .. what about that sauce too.. maybe she wants to keep it secret and i'm ok with that, but i'd rather hear them say they don't wanna give details on the video haha
Josephine and Nicole are national treasures! I love the confidence they have in their own mastery of pizza, but the wisdom and willingness to acknowledge their way of doing pizza isn't the only way. They truly are icons worthy of our praise and admiration.
Man, both of these got my mouth watering. I have no idea who I'd go with on this one. I love deep dish pizza, so I'd have to try both. Yum. One of my new favorite shows. Going to go back through the previous videos and watch them all.
I love this series!! Probably my new favorite series. I adore Nicole. She's so bright and funny. All the guests and judges are incredible. First we feast, you've got me hooked!
I was skeptical about this show when it first started, as I'm not really into food shows (except hot ones), but I really have grown to love this show. Nicole is a very lovable and entertaining host and the guests and creations have been great.
This is such a different and BETTER version of a competition. Two excellent chefs / cooks interacting, comparing, commenting, complimenting one another. So, so, so, so much better than the normal BS you see in competitions. I love it. Cheers!
Deep dish is special occasion pizza - friends in from out of town, a birthday. The every day Chicago pizza is tavern style thin crust...super thin crust, cut in squares, most often topped with Italian sausage.
Yep, I probably only eat deep dish three times out of the year( probably less) besides that I'm ordering classic Chicago tavern style pizza eating my 10 squares worth lol
@@necrogenesis1981 because it is filling, more of a sit down fork and knife pizza. Tavern style thin crust is pizza you can eat a half pizza yourself and is the every day type pizza. There are far more tavern style pizza joints in Chicago than deep dish. Some people call deep dish tourist pizza.
Loved it, the key is that pizza is a food you can get almost anywhere, in any style, in any variety, and it's the variety that keeps it fresh, and new, and just good food.
Lou Malnati’s is a lot less messy than others. Here in the chi we also have Labriola, Milly’s and a few other stellar deep dish spots that make a clean pie.
As a person born and raised in Chicago (I'm 52), the vast majority of people that eat deep dish pizza are tourists. The regular choice for Chicagoans is whatever local place is closest; thin crust and square cut. They now call it tavern style, but back in the day it was just pizza. Yeah, once in awhile you'd go to Lou Malnati's, but your local joint was the best. For me, Marie's Pizza was hands down my favorite. When I visited Chicago back in 2013, I went to Marie's 3 times in the week I was there and it was exactly the same as it was in the '70s and '80s. The tables, the decorations, even the bartender was still there.
ya she's a real live human!! haha i thought the same.. I wanna hang out with her and listen to her talk all day.. would be fun in the kitchen with her i bet!! great episode!!
Always a big fan of Farideh, and Sean, well, he's simply the GOAT. This show, from its pizza makers to its judges, is just so chock-full of good vibes. Real winner here, First We Feast!
Having never tasted this pizza 🍕 miracle before, you just have to appreciate good skills and deep love for this art wherever you can. #FirstWeFeast #PizzaWarsS1 #DukesUp!!! #DeepDishCasserole. #LoveInCompetition. #SeanEvansIsRewarded!!! #PureChefsKiss!!!
They honored Chicago deep dish with their embracing of what it is, and bringing what they love and know about pizza to the table. And it’s a casserole.
Great episode, Nicole Russell's chicken parm pizza does sound magical esp love how dense that crust looked, love Josephine Giordano's personality and like the layering idea she did!
This was the best pizza wars I've seen. I almost lost my breath woshimg I could have some when they both said they were so good. The lady from Lenny's had the funnest attitude and sarcasm of any competitor. Made the show. Great to hear Sean's voice and the other girl judge was neat.
Born and raised in Chicago on thin crust, bar cut pizza. Not a fan of deep dish or pan pizza. I was 20 years old when I first heard about the deep dish pizza.
cracker crust is the real shit but that’s ridiculous. im born and raised in chicago too and everyone at least knows OF deep dish pizza. every single non-vegan chicagoan i know has it at least once a year for some reason or a nother.
@@djsugarc1075 Our go to pizza is still Home Run Inn. We lived a few blocks away from their original 31st location. It's 300 miles away from me now, but available frozen in my local Kroger grocery stores.
So explain to someone who is completely uncultured about Chicago deep dish like myself what's the difference between deep dish and normal is it that because it's deeper it has more substance to it and therefore more filling or is it like the texture is better or is it better taste? But it looks good Giordano's pizza looks good
Both texture and filling are different so in a traditional Pizza it's obviously dough, sauce, cheese, toppings. with a deep dish it's typically dough, cheese and toppings, another thin layer of dough, and then the sauce on top with a little bit of parmesan. If cooked correctly this is going to give you a pizza that is not floppy and soup like (Sean is 100% right those are the bad kind of deep dish), but something that can still hold it's shape when eaten by hand. I prefer a fork cause it gets really hot. I hope this answered your question
Whiplash hit it basically spot on, EXCEPT for the second crust! Pizza like that & what Josephine made are Stuffed Pizzas! Traditional Chicago Deep Dish doesnt have a second crust! Then you've got a 3rd style like Pequods in Chicago that is like a cross between Deep Dish & Detroit style
@@Angelwolfs9 I have no idea about pequods I don't know anything about Chicago I've never been there. I think the second crust is supposed to be a bit of New York style being infused into it. At least I think that's what they said
@@Angelwolfs9 a traditional Chicago deep dish has that second layer of crust. I do sometimes see it where they name differently but Giordano's has it, Lou malnati's has it, all the chains have it including some of the less known pizza places around the city. For example paisans pizzeria has stuffed pizza and deep dish which is just sauce at the bottom a shit ton of cheese and toppings but their "stuffed" is the Chicago one with the sauce on top and that second layer of crust
Josephine is awesome. My brother worked at Lenny's Pizza a couple of years after Saturday Night fever, and I knew the family who sold Lenny's to her family. Spent about 40 minutes on the phone with her talking about the old days a few years ago.
Let's argue: Is Chicago deep dish pizza or casserole?
Shadddupp it’s a pizza!
I'll agree with Farideh.
of course it is, it's the best thing around and new york pizza is only popular because those people have been gaslighted their entire lives. If I wanted a greasy floppy thing in my mouth I would visit long island.
its a lasagna masquerading as a pizza
Thicknesses may varry but pizza is pizza
For the love of god you cannot let Josephine be a one off guest. She is so naturally funny get this girl a show dammit
Get her this show and let her take the place of the super "excited" (to use a relatively nice word) host ^^
Ok I need Josephine in my life. She needs her own show where she makes food and threatens people.
Yes! Like even a learning to cook for ppl show or a competition!
I agree. I loved her personality and wit. So far she's the best thing about Pizza Wars
Brooklyn
Call it "Dukes up, Dukes up".
She’s cool I couldn’t listen to her voice to long. Kinda like Fran dresser but franny at least is nice to look at
Josephine Giordano sounds like what people who aren't from New York City think everyone in NYC sounds like.
Facts 😂
I know more than a couple people here in brooklyn with accents that thick. It really is a bensonhurst-italian-american thing.
Stereotypes come from somewhere. Literally.
True.
Wait are you telling me everyone in New York doesn’t sound like that? My life is a lie?
Josephine, expressionless: "I'm so excited."
Would love to see her in more stuff.
Look up the channel "Josephine from Brooklyn" it's her channel
@@liammeadows9782 Cool beans , thanks for the info.
Same i like her spunk
Josephine passing SEVERAL vibe checks! Hope to see her as one of the FWF regulars in the future.
All the NY accents thus far have been almost as satisfying as the pies
She's hilarious!!
She’d be fun on Hot Ones.
@@worldismyashtray Absolutely! That would be hilarious!
Agreed!
I love that the contestants aren't at each other's throats. They're encouraging of each other and just delightful. Excellent new show!!
Lenny's doesn't need a bouncer.
They have a Josephine.
I'm from chicago and this woman is so Italian she made me think I was the one saying Giordano's wrong
🤣🤣🤣🤣
no, shes wrong. god new yorkers are the worst. source: know the actual family that made giordanos
@@Alex-zi1nb It's literally her last name.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, she’s so Italian she doesn’t even have an Italian accent
Sean's reward for eating those wings from hell every week.
Josephine is like if Claire Saffitz was Italian and chose pizza over desserts.
You spend entirely too much time watching food personality youtube videos.
@@burntvirtue You've mistaken me for someone who cares.
@@burntvirtue says the man in the comment section of a personality driven cooking show.
Omg
I thought it was Claire at first
Josephine outshined everyone up there with her personality smile and My Cousin Vinny "two yutes "Joe Pesci accent. Her pizza may not have made the grade among tasters but it damn sure looked more appetizing.
Please give her her own show. I would watch/listen to her read a phone book.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Indeed!
For real though. She should appear and cook in other stuff for sure
The fact that she had that spot of grey hair reminded me of Joe Pesci's character in Casino which made this comment even funnier
She is funny but her pizzas was not the best of the 2
“If they come knocking at my door I’m not answering”
I don’t even think John Wick would take that contract Josephine
The sheer amount of shade that's flying here towards Chicago pizza is hilarious and i'm here for it
ruclips.net/video/AEkH1dtzItc/видео.html
"I'm gonna roll it out like I'm making a pizza"
I was expecting Sean to ask the deep dish pizza, at least a couple, questions before he ate it.
I expected him to ask "wheres the hot sauce at?" XD kind of surprised neither gal added any
"Now is the time where we do a deep dive on this deep dish pizza!"
I dont think this man wants to eat anymore hot sauce than he has too haha
I read every commas of your comment with a burp because of your profile pic
I love how much they liked each other. And the pizzas looked incredible.
I just like these videos because of how positive everyone is. Less "THaTs NoT A rEaL PIzZa" and more "Man that sounds delicious"
"That's not a real pizza" and "that sounds delicious" aren't mutually exclusive
@@miesenplace me too 😛😛😛
Yeah, it's got the supportive Great British Bake Off energy where everyone is excited to be there and try things.
That Josephine she needs her own show. ❤
💯
I went to high school with a Farideh Sadeghin… but how many Farideh Sadeghins can there be in the world?? Yep, that’s the Farideh I went to high school with 😂 That’s awesome!
Did you have a crush on her then like I do now? 😍
I actually went to school with a Sean Evans bit alas…. Not the same one 😢
"either way we're both winning" yeah no shit, the only losers are us watching cause we aren't able to eat any of this
Josephine can easily be entertaining on her own show.
I can hear the Italians, fresh off hangovers from last night’s football, heading our way to produce some angry noises…
Everyone scarper.
actually in italy we have something similar to deep dish pizza, we just don't call it pizza, we call it torta salata, which means savoury cake
@@gio9789 Sounds delicious :D
@@RedRoseSeptember22 it surely is
😭😭😭😭

I need a Nicole and Josephine show like YESTERDAY. They're delightful together!!!
Josephine Giordano sounds so much like the stereotypical IM WALKIN HERE new yorker ive seen in the movies. love it.
Pizza Wars keeps getting better and better, and its because Nicole is so down to earth and loves to cook!
yep, she's very positive, and talented, but she's also competitive, so it works. I still can't believe she pulled off Pizza in a Cup!
She is too extra and annoying.
I get the impression that new yorkers care more about Chicago deep dish than anyone else on earth
Right? They care more about deep dish than I care about deep dish... I live in Chicago.

Pizzas looked great but it's just good to see Sean in a setting where he's not in constant pain while hosting.
You deserved those slices, Sean.
This is my type of competition! So much love!
Contestant #1: Yours looks amazing!
Contestant #2: Yours looks amazing!!

This is such a different and BETTER version of a competition. Two excellent chefs / cooks interacting, comparing, commenting, complimenting one another. So, so, so, so much better than the normal BS you see in competitions. I love it. Cheers!
As a Chicago native and former Giordano’s employee… that was maybe 50% cheese capacity…
Idk man, but Sean Evans is just amazing
Hence why I clicked on this video. The dude is a straight legend!
He's a bald who asks questions while millionaires eat chicken. You probably don't even like respect firefighters as much as you do this bald.

Highly recommend the burger scholar George motz

Josephine is a perfect matching for First we feast and Seeing Farideh and Sean at the same time, is quite the enjoyable experience
As someone who only understands deep dish pizza because of Eddy Burback I am impressed
Giordano is one of the most if not the most real person. Right in the moment with no judgement. Such a breath of fresh air.
"If they come knock on my door, I won't open"
I pity the one who knocks...
I like when a judge is genuinely quilified to judge their region.
I closed my eyes and imagined a My Cousin Vinny sequel JUST by the sound of the accent. .
....instead of the "two yoots" it was two pizzas.

All these years I thought pizza had a “z” in it. Weird.
Oh No! zz is so much last year 😉
I love Josephine's accent! So New York, such a sarcastic wit!
She had me at Lou’s. Giordano’s not my thang. There is no way the Giordano’s pizza crust was going to be the Lou’s pizza crust. Chicago locals know.
Loved this episode. It was so chill and while it was a competition you both lifted each other up. Good food, good company, good stuff!
