Loui's Pizza was founded by the godfather of Detroit pizza himself,
Head Chef Louis, who originally got his start at Buddy's PIzza.
Depending on who you talk to, some people might tell you that this is the best pie in Detroit.
Detroit-style pizza, from what I understand,
It's a pan pizza, and they got this brick cheese they use from Wisconsin,
They usually do it kind of backwards,
Where the pepperoni goes on,
The cheese goes on,
Then – here it is.
Thank you so much. Beautiful, wow.
There's a little slice here, but you can see that it's underneath the cheese.
Anyway.
What are you doing man? We gotta get this to go.
I'm hungry as fuck, though.
Let's hurry up then.
♫ ♫ ♫
Decisions, decisions.
Go hot?
Both of em.
(phone ringing)
Hello?
Matt, what's the deal?
What up Ray?
We're gonna get some corn beef right?
Asian corn beef?
Yeah. Asian's.
Shit. I'm there.
My guy. Kwan.
So, I gotta go meet up with Fat Ray.
He just hit me up, I haven't seen him in a minute.
Could you just got pickup a pie at Cloverleaf? Cool? Alright.
♫ ♫ ♫
We are so hungry today. You know how it gets mid-week at work...

(John) 44, so...
(Jack) Yeah, he was at this place called Buddy's.
(John) Got it.
They found some pans, don't ask me where,
I never asked my dad that question.
I should have, right? Ya know, why they got em?
(Jack) You go to any Polish market here in Detroit you'll find brick-cheese.
(Jack) You won't find it in Italian stores, or other stores at all.
(Jack) When I was a kid we didn't have all these machines –
(Jack) Shredders, graters, this, that. We used to slice the cheese on a slicer.
(John) Oh yeah?
(Jack) Yeah, by hand, because they weren't automated back then,
(Jack) We cut two different types of cheeses and then we stacked each one, and interlocked them all.
Sounds like hard work, cutting all that cheese.
(laughs)

It's like being home!
According to legend,
Buddy's was first a speak easy,
But in 1946 Gus Guerra made a pie here.
He used tomato, basil, red sauce from Sicily,
Baked in square pans first used by auto workers to hold nuts, bolts and car parts.
(Waitress) Picking up or dining in?
(Customer) We'll dine in.
Buddy's pizza.
I got 'em.
You okay?
I've been better.
Come here.
♫ ♫ ♫
(knock)
What up Doe.
(Dez) What's up? Somebody order a pizza?
♫ ♫ ♫
Kat, so what is your inspiration for today's pie?
(Kat) I just love cooking, and this is just–
(Kat) Detroit style, you know–
(Kat) This is just how I get down.
How do you feel about Faygo?
(Kat) I grew up drinking Faygo.
(Kat) You get you a bag of red hots,
(Kat) Better made chips and a red pop, and man, you're in heaven.
(Chuck) My mom used to take an apple, put it in a bowl,
(Chuck) Pour red pop over it, and then microwave it.
(Kat) Oh my goodness! Oh, candied apple!
(Chuck) Candied apple right?! You know about that shit.
(Kat) Yup.

Thank you Facebook for tuning in.
Alright, so we got the Buddy's pizza,
My man, right here, what do we got?
What up doe.
It's ya man K Illa, aka opposite ordinary on Instagram.
What we have here is a Pink Panties gourmet-tailored,
medicated pizza.
I am the first one in the D to do this shit and I am the best,
So when you're fucking with this, you are fucking with the best.
Alright, dope.
Watch this.
He opens it.
The amount of THC is fucking ridiculous.
Alright, who's doing the honors?
Dez' gotta DJ.
Wait, so if I eat a slice of this what's going to happen?
You're going to die.
(background) You're going to end up wearing pink panties later holmes!
Alright, Chuck is going to have a piece, I'm going to have a piece, too.
Alright, Chuck.
Hungriest MC in the D I'm going to take a slice of that pink panties, too.
(Chuck) Hit it up.
Mmmmhmm.
And just in case y'all looking for me,
We are called Pink Panties, where our slogan is,
"A little trim in every box."
♫ ♫ ♫
Medicated pizza, that medicated slice was fire, bro.
If you ain't get one you played yourself.
Triple-cheese-medicated-slice, that boy was heavy.
Turkey pepperoni.
Fire.
Turkey pepperoni, bro.
Fire. Banana peppers, bro.
It was life, bro.
I'm gonna admit man–
I'm from Detroit and I never ate a Buddy's pizza before.
I never had a Buddy's . . . but I brought a Bob's Pizza, coming down here from 7-mile.
Hungry Boys' bringing down another pie
New pie alert!
Here we have, Detroit's own, Loui's pizza pie.
It's a Loui's pizza pie right here.
Make sure you get one of these while its still hot.
New pizza alert, Loui's pizza.
Hungry Boys.
♫ ♫ ♫

Real soulful, steppin' kinda whatever.
Grown-folk shit.
Um, Hungry Boys,
WDEZ,
Please share this,
I see some of y'all must be doin' whatever y'all doin',
But, thank you to everyone that is tuned in.
♫ ♫ ♫
What was your favorite pie from today?
Man, I got to give it to Buddy's.
You know, that crispy crust defintely set it over the edge,
But, definitely Loui's and Cloverleaf on the same level and tied for me,
And they all deserve a special mention in my book.
(John) I agree.
(John) What was crazy though was at Dez's we had so many different types of pies,
Not just the square style.
It was incredible, it was an incredible testatment to the creativity of the city,
We had the Phat Kat pizza,
And we had the Pink Panties Pizza which knocked everyone out.
Yeah.
Anyway, I want to give a special thanks to Dez Andrés for hosting us,
To Fat Ray for starring in the episode,
Phat Kat, Rick Wilhite, Chuck Daniels, and everyone else who came through.
Thank you all for coming.
So anyway, signing off,
I'm Matt,
I'm John,
We'll catch you on the next food tour.
Peace.
