This is not a …
This is not a matter of “preference”. This is a matter of truth versus fiction. The truth is that no matter how much you like it, Chicago deep dish is not pizza. Its its own (imo revolting) thing, a flatbread that caters to the tastes of obese midwesterners.
There are some excellent flatbreads out there. American Flatbread in VT for instance is wonderful. However one can’t get around the fact that the core concept of deep dish is revolting.

Never heard of …
Never heard of Burt’s cuz I’m not too familiar with the burbs. My pizza of choice is Art of Pizza on Ashland or Ginos on Diversey. Uno’s is ok ay but not end all be all. Giordano’s is better than Uno’s though.

You just used a great word…preference. I’m born and raised in Chicago too, but I love deep dish pizza. I have yet to try Burt’s, but I do love the thing.
It’s obviously a preference thing. It’s especially true for food.
