Description

A wood-burning oven is the centerpiece of this restaurant, quite popular in Edwardsville and worth the trip across the river from St. Louis. From that oven come thin-crust pizzas both simple and sophisticated. The "Prosciutto" is an elegant pie with fingerling potatoes, roasted garlic and rosemary joining the cured pork. The "Jerk Chicken" is more playful, a tasty variation on barbecue-chicken pizza. The wings, roasted in the oven, are excellent, whether as an appetizer or an entrée.

  • 2012 | Best Pizza (Thin Crust)

    You don't have to look very hard to find the secret to Peel Wood Fired Pizza's success. Really, you don't have to look at all. It's right there in the center of the kitchen, visible throughout the restaurant: the oven, which reaches temperatures of about 800 degrees, fueled by hardwood logs. This intense heat gives Peel's pies a gorgeous, gently blistered crust, its flavor lightly imbued with smoke, and it reduces the slabs of fresh mozzarella on the margherita pizza to beautifully molten...
