I'm wondering if deep-dish pizza, which is a type of pizza with a thick crust and toppings, can actually be considered a pie. I mean, pies usually have fillings enclosed in a pastry shell, so is deep-dish pizza really a type of pie?

Deep-dish pizza stands out from other pizza varieties due to its distinctive crust.

Unlike New York-style or Neapolitan pizza, the crust of deep-dish pizza is notably thick.

This thickness gives the pizza a bulky appearance, making it resemble a pie more than a traditional flatbread.

The depth of the crust also means that there is more dough in deep-dish pizza compared to other types.

As a result, deep-dish pizza often has a more filling and hearty texture.
