Never insult Jersey pizza: Here’s where listeners say the real best slices are

We asked the question about the pizza in New Jersey.

It all started when I realized that I missed National Pizza Day. So in perfect contrarian form, let's talk pizza on the day after, of course.

I committed a bit of a faux pas in Jersey media, mentioning the coal-fired pizza at Frank Pepe's in Connecticut being among the best in the world.

Jersey guys had something to say about that.

Here's a partial list of some of the best pizza in the Garden State, which rivals anything being served in those other states:

Chris in Westfield's recommendation - Salerno's Pizza III in Ewing

Mike in Atlantic City's recommendation - Palermo's II in Lawrence

Lari in Lebanon's recommendation  - Millie's coal-fired pizza in Morristown

Buda the comedian's recommendation  - Kate and Al's pizza in the Columbus farmers market

Leon in Linwood's recommendation  - Carluccio's in Northfield

Jimmy in Browns Mills' recommendation  - Mateo's in Hainesport 

Maria in Edison's recommendation - Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza in Menlo Park
