Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy has become kind of a self-appointed pizza aficionado, and now he’s bringing three dozen pizzerias to the One Bite Pizza Festival in Brooklyn on Sep. 23.

Why do we care about a pizza festival in Brooklyn? Because ten New Jersey pizzerias will be cooking pies there.

According to the Asbury Park Press, these are the Garden State pizzerias that will be there:

🍕 Angeloni’s Restaurant & Pizzeria in Caldwell
🍕 Artichoke Basille's Pizza in Hoboken, Jersey City and New Brunswick. Sister restaurant Sally Boy's is in Red Bank.
🍕 The Brook Tap House in West Caldwell
🍕 Brooklyn Square in Monmouth & Ocean Counties
🍕 Calabria Pizzeria & Restaurant in Livingston
🍕 Coniglio's Old Fashioned in Morristown
🍕 De Lorenzo's Tomato Pies in Robbinsville Township
🍕 Federici's Family Restaurant in Freehold Borough
🍕 Nellie’s Place in Waldwick
🍕 Santillo’s Brick Oven Pizza in Elizabeth

Here’s how the One Bite website describes the festival:

In his one-bite pizza reviews, Portnoy takes a single bite of a slice of pizza from a different pizzeria and gives it a rating of 1 to 10. He is known for his honest and often critical reviews, and he has become a cult figure among pizza lovers. He has reviewed dozens of New Jersey pizzerias.

Tickets for the festival are $220 and include all-you-can-eat pizza, an “Italian Dessert Village,” and live music. Tickets are available here.
