Slow Cooker Deep Dish Pizza- This Chicago-Style deep dish pizza is so easy to make in the crock pot. Lots of cheese, sausage, and pepperoni make this crock pot pizza hard to resist. Until I tried this recipe, I had no idea pizza could be made in a slow cooker. This pizza is not only easy, but wonderfully delicious as well.

 
I love how thick deep-dish pizza is. There’s a thick crust, lots of sauce and tons of cheese.
This pizza takes 2 1/2 to 3 hours on HIGH or 4 to 6 hours on LOW.  You have a wonderfully golden brown and cripsy crust with lots of gooey cheese.

The crust won’t get browned and crispy without the paper towels. You want them pulled tight under the lid so that they don’t hang down and touch the pizza.
