I’m not surprised. New Jersey has always been known for its top notch pizza. It’s the sauce, right? Or, is it the dough? It has to be the cheese. Whatever it is, it’s the best. I have friends who grew up here in New Jersey and moved away. When you ask them what they miss the most about the state, they say the pizza, and then they complain about what other parts of the country think is good pizza. Ha ha.

Pizzerias were judged on ingredients and atmosphere

So, what makes these award-winning pizzerias on the new list so great? When the judges first made this list, they just chose pizzerias in Italy, but then realized they were missing out. So, now the judges travel all over the United States looking at things like quality of ingredients, pizza dough, atmosphere, and more.
