Sean Evans rides hard for his beloved Chicago deep dish, but regional pride can’t blind him for the glories of a perfect New York pie. To better understand the legacy of Brooklyn pizza, he enlists the help of slice sherpa Paul Giannone—owner of Paulie Gee’s in Greenpoint—to introduce him to some of the borough’s old-school pizza joints. They end the tour back at Paulie Gee’s to make a special Neapolitan pie fit for a spicy-food connoisseur like Sean.
