Apple, pumpkin, pecan — and pizza pie? A new Thanksgiving tradition has some pizzerias rolling in dough
When Nick Argy celebrates Thanksgiving, it’s naturally all about the turkey and trimmings. But in his case, they’re toppings for a loaded-to-the-max pizza.
Argy is in good company. Across the country, many restaurants that specialize in pizza are also doing their version of a holiday pie . In some cases, the tradition has been building for years. Pizza makers say the pies take a certain culinary savvy to pull off correctly. Most opt to eliminate tomato sauce, for example. “It’s not really in the flavor profile of what we’re looking for,” said Jonathan Haffmans, chef of Industry Kitchen, a New York City restaurant known for its wood-fired pizzas. Haffmans serves a Thanksgiving flatbread — similar to a pizza — around holiday time topped with turkey, stuffing and an orange-cranberry sauce, among other ingredients.
A final factor behind the trend: It’s no secret that in recent years, restaurants have offered outrageous dishes to generate buzz on social media. A Thanksgiving pizza is a perfect “Instagram-able moment,” said Alper Uyanik, a proprietor of two New York City pizzerias, Harlem Pizza Co. and Sliced by Harlem Pizza Co.
