PrintPizza Showdown Winning Reader
Buffalo Spree's November issue features our Pizza Showdown, pitting pepperoni pies from sixteen of Western New York's most-loved pizza palaces against one another in a head-to-head match up.
Last week we asked our readers to weigh in online, as we posted bracket after bracket of our ongoing pizza battle, and you did. We heard that you felt we'd left some of your favorite pizza places out. We also heard the rallying cry of those who pronounced the offering of thin crust pizza as an automatic, disqualification since, in some commentors minds, its roots are downstate.
To discover our winning pizza, pick up the November issue of Spree, which is on newsstands now.
Today we are proud to announce the winner of our uber-foodie pizza prize. The pizza stone, quality OXO pizza cutter and a wooden pizza peel are the tools any good chef needs to make perfect pizza at home.
Congratulations to MIKE IN WNY, who left his own opinions about our regional pizza scene on quite a few of our Pizza Showdown brackets. MIKE IN WNY seems to be be something of a pizza authority, with clear comments left on multiple posts stating his picks with little or no justification. We like a man who knows and loves his pizza and doesn't feel the need to offer much explanation, so the prize goes to MIKE IN WNY!
Now that that's out of the way, when's dinner?

This is a very cool prize. I have been making pizzas at home for years using a perforated pizza pan with good results. I am definitely looking forward to trying out the pizza stone.
You can come pick it up anytime, MIKE IN WNY. It's here at our front desk with your name on it.
