We have a local pizzeria here, Big Joes.  They have some great pies and some really interesting specialty pies.  We had two, the chicken parm pizza and a lasagna pizza.  They were both excellent.  So Friday night I decided to try the Philly cheesesteak pizza.

I walk in just as they're finishing up the pie.  As a final touch the squirt some ranch dressing on it.  RANCH DRESSING??!?!!?  Who the [BLEEP] puts ranch dressing on a Philly cheesesteak?  Sacrilege!!

I’m torn.  Pizza is a different story.  I’ve used ranch to dip my crust many times. Never had I used it on a cheesesteak.  I also haven’t heard of a restaurant putting ranch on a pizza as part of their recipe. Since its pizza, the only thing I can say is I hope all the flavors complete each other and the pie tastes good.  Any cheesesteak pizza I’ve ever bought had their “white sauce” or whatever.  Pizza has expanding flavors. Like you, I don’t expect a cheesesteak while eating a pizza so much the flavor.  Ranch isn’t anything I’d add naturally.  But in the end, if it tastes good…I’m certainly open to it despite the name given to it.
