Chicago-style pizza, a deep-dish, thick crust with ingredients piled on in a slightly different way. Cheese is placed on the thick crust, followed by any other toppings of choice.

This style is starkly different from the thin-crust New York style that starts with sauce and ends with cheese and toppings.
