The dough at Feral Pizza ferments for nearly two days, and we assume it spends that time pondering the true nature of life, love, and what it means to be a crust. The end result is a crispy, chewy, and distinctly sour base that pairs especially well with tomatoes, cheese, and meat. This speciality at this tiny trailer in North Loop is New York-style pies, with an ultra-thin layer of sauce that provides sweet, tangy flavor without overpowering the crust. You’ll also find thicker grandma-style pizzas, a weekly Sicilian special, and a rotating dessert. The whole operation takes place behind a convenience store—it’s mostly a takeout spot with a few picnic tables. As a result, pies can take a while. Order ahead online or cozy up at a bar nearby while you wait around for a text like you’re back in high school again. If the dough can hang out that long, you can wait an hour without going feral.
