Venturing to Chicago for the real deal, we return to the test kitchen to make our own pie worthy of its namesake, as well as a chopped-salad accompaniment.
Chicago-Style Deep-Dish Pizza
Deep-dish pizza was born in Chicago, where it boasts a distinctively rich, flaky, biscuit-like crust. The problem? No pizzeria in Chicago would tell us how to make it.
Mediterranean Chopped Salad
We wanted complementary flavors and textures in every bite—not a random collection of bland, watery produce from the crisper drawer.

In a world overshadowed by blueberry, apple, and pumpkin fillings, cherry pie is a vividly fruity pastry worthy of revival. We perfect our own recipe, then move to the stovetop, where we prepare the ultimate Skillet Apple Crisp.
Sweet Cherry Pie
Cherry season is a mere blip on the summer-produce radar. For a juicy pie with the best fruity flavor, we’d have to look beyond the cherry tree.
Skillet Apple Crisp
Apple crisp invites a devil-may-care attitude: Slice up any old fruit, sprinkle on a topping, and bake. Perhaps that’s why it’s never on anyone’s A-list.
Ice Cream Scoops
Almost every ice cream scoop can do the job—but we demanded ease and comfort.
Supermarket Vanilla Ice Cream
Twenty-one Cook’s Illustrated staff members sampled eight national and regional brands of vanilla ice cream plain in a blind tasting, rating each on vanilla flavor, texture, and overall appeal.

Memphis-Style Barbecued Spareribs on a Charcoal Grill
Memphis pit masters pride themselves on pork ribs with dark, crusty bark and distinctive chew. We wanted the same bragging rights from our own backyard.
Best Charcoal Grill-Smoked Pork Chops
To achieve juicy glazed pork infused with deep smoky flavor without a smoker, we couldn't let the chops lie down on the job.

Our light and chewy Rosemary Focaccia can compete with any bakery’s, and it makes a pleasant pairing with our authentic Cacio e Pepe, or spaghetti with Pecorino Romano and black pepper.
Rosemary Focaccia
The dense, greasy bread bricks populating most bakery shelves don’t deserve their hearth- inspired name. Could a little patience—and a hands-off approach—lighten the loaf?
Spaghetti with Pecorino Romano and Black Pepper (Cacio e Pepe)
Whole-Wheat Pasta

Inexpensive Charcoal Grill-Roasted Beef with Garlic and Rosemary
Grill-roasting seems like an easy way to flavor a less-than-perfect cut of beef—but not if the roast comes out chewy and dry.
Smokers
Though plenty of rib and brisket enthusiasts convert their grills into makeshift smokers, proper lower-temperature smoking is best achieved with a designated appliance. Right?

We reveal the keys to two grilled dishes: Stuffed Chicken Breasts with Prosciutto and Fontina, which has a stuffing that stays put inside moist and smoky chicken, and Grilled Tuna Steaks, which have hot exteriors and cool centers.
Charcoal-Grilled Stuffed Chicken Breasts with Prosciutto and Fontina
Taking a stuffed chicken breast recipe and adding the smoky flavor of the grill sounds like a good idea—if you can get past the leathery exterior and oozing, flammable filling.
Charcoal-Grilled Tuna Steaks with Red Wine Vinegar and Mustard Vinaigrette
Ideally, grilled tuna should combine a hot, smoky, charred exterior with a cool, rare, sashimi-like center. So how do you make fish that’s both very hot and very cool?

As the beef capital of the world, Argentina boasts mouthwatering steak dishes in its cuisine. We replicate one dish, Grilled Argentine Steaks with Chimichurri Sauce, and then look eastward to Spain and demonstrate our recipe for Creamy Gazpacho Andaluz.
Charcoal-Grilled Argentine Steaks with Chimichurri Sauce
With Argentine beef and a wood fire, cooking churrasco in the backyard would be easy. We were stuck with American supermarket steaks and a Weber kettle.
Creamy Gazpacho Andaluz
Most Americans know gazpacho as a chunky liquid salsa. In Spain, the most famous version is a creamy puree. But to get it right, we’d need more than just a good blender.
Canned Diced Tomatoes
When most brands garner comments like “sour, old, sad,” we just had to ask: What does it take to produce good canned diced tomatoes?

We prepare two breakfast dishes worth getting out of bed for: buttermilk waffles that come out crisp yet fluffy every time, and French toast that’s crisp on the outside and soft—not soggy—on the inside.
Buttermilk Waffles
How do you get waffles to come out crisp yet fluffy every time? Step one: Stop treating them like bumpy pancakes.
French Toast
For French toast that’s crisp on the outside and soft—not soggy—on the inside, you need to do more than just throw milk, eggs, and bread into a bowl.
Waffle Irons
Our old favorite model has been discontinued, so we reopened our search for the most efficient performer.
