At Slice, we believe that all pizza is equally delicious, but some places tend to prefer one type over another. Although you can pick up pizza of all types in Columbia, quite a few local chains offer this particular local favorite. Cut into squares or rectangles, this type of pizza was first created in the nearby city of St Louis. It has a thin cracker-like crust that is made without yeast and the sauce has a distinct oregano flavor and an extra touch of sweetness. This sturdy crust holds toppings piled up high, and it can be topped with just about anything you like! However, the cheese is what takes it to the next level. Traditionally, the St Louis is topped with Provel cheese, a blend of cheddar, provolone, and Swiss cheeses. If you are in the mood for Italian food done the American way, order your St. Louis style pizza from one of our CoMo Slice partners.
