2017 International Pizza Expo

Demo - Make Detroit-Style Your Style (Room Show Floor Demo Area)

29 Mar 17
1:30 PM - 2:30 PM
Colorado owner-pizza maker Jeff Smokevitch excels at baking pies in multiple styles, so much so that he won the triathlon baking title in the Parma, Italy, championships in 2015 with classic, gluten-free and pan entries. But he’s a native Michigander, which makes Detroit-style a particular passion. This sauce-on-top rectangular pie with its caramelized cheese crust is gaining popularity throughout the U.S., and Jeff can show you proper prep and baking techniques as well as how to add it to your menu without costly equipment purchases.
