When folks think of pizza, usually states like New York and Chicago come to my mind. Increasingly though, Michigan is becoming top of mind for pizza enthusiasts. For two years in a row, Detroit has been named the top pizza city in the U.S. 

The Mitten State has a rich history with pizza, with national chains Little Caesars, Domino's, Hungry Howie's, and Jet's Pizza all getting their start here.

Here's a look at one of their most popular pizzas, the Supino, with roasted garlic, black olives, chili oil, ricotta, and mozzarella.
