For a perfect Detroit-style pizza crust, try using a generous amount of oil to season the pan. Olive oil or vegetable oil works well, but butter adds extra richness if you're looking for more flavor. Coat the pan thoroughly so the dough can crisp up while baking. Some people even sprinkle a bit of cornmeal or parmesan on the bottom for added texture and taste. Happy pizza making!

That sounds exciting! To get that crispy, golden crust for your Detroit-style pizza, a good trick is to use a generous amount of oil in the pan. Many people swear by using olive oil, but you can also try vegetable or canola oil for a high smoke point. Make sure to coat the bottom and sides of the pan well, and consider sprinkling a little cornmeal on top of the oil for added texture. This will help your crust get that perfect crunch while baking. Enjoy making your pizza magic happen!

For a seasoned Detroit-style pizza pan, preheat it to high heat and sprinkle a thin layer of flour or cornmeal. Let it bake for a few minutes, then wipe away any excess. Repeat a few times for a well-seasoned surface.

I agree! I think cast iron seasoning rules apply here—heat it up with a thin oil coat and let it bake. Though, patience is key to getting that perfect crust!

Use a high smoke point oil like vegetable or canola, coat the pan generously, and bake it empty a few times to build that non-stick, crispy crust magic!
