According to the NY Post, New Yorkers are going wild for a Thanksgiving pizza that looks like it was built in a fever dream — and people can’t stop gobbling it up.
Pino’s Pizza in Deer Park has gone viral (again) for their Thanksgiving pie, a $34.99 slice of holiday chaos loaded with roasted turkey breast, gravy, sausage, apple-cornbread stuffing, and a drizzle of cranberry sauce. It’s basically your entire Thanksgiving plate dropped onto a pizza crust — and somehow, people love it.
Owner Joseph Barbieri — everyone calls him Pino — told the Post he’s had customers driving in from places like Toms River, New Jersey just to get their hands on one. He’s already sold more than 300 this month, and the biggest question he gets is, “Can you ship it?” (Short answer: not yet.)

The craze started last year when he posted a video making the pie. Within 48 hours, it had millions of views on Instagram and TikTok, and more than 500 pizzas flew out the door. The whole idea came from a turkey mix-up at one of his markets, which left him roasting birds at 4 a.m. and improvising his way into pizza history.
Since then, Pino has doubled down on Thanksgiving everything — calzones, stromboli, even empanadas stuffed with the same holiday ingredients.
So, the real question is: Would you eat this New York Thanksgiving pizza?
I would eat this all week and twice on Sunday and I don’t know why. I’ve always thought the Thanksgiving menu was severely overrated but almost anything in pizza form is better.
