I recently tried the "Malnati Deep Dish with 15% Semolina" recipe posted by BTB on the pizzamaking.com website (thanks for turning me onto this Barry) with a few minor modifications. I cooked it in the oven, but next time I will try my gas grill or Weber. Growing up near NYC, this is not something I would call a "pizza". However, I really like these deep dish pies!
