As most people know Santillos burned down in January. I told Al that whenever he needed me and Barstool we'd be there with funds to rebuild his iconic pizzeria. He is finally ready to start. We put tshirts on sale and started a gofund me for him. 100% of it goes to Al Get a tshirt here: store.barstoolsports.com/products/santillos-brick-oven-pizza-tee?variant=41685521006689 Or donate to the GoFundMe here: www.gofundme.com/f/rebuild-santillos-a-pizza-icons-return?lid=6cu29l31m2qr&B4904-welcome-wp-v5
As a (partial) Italian-American, full-blown pizza fanatic and true New Jersey native, I'm honored to help Santillo's rebuild. Thank you for organizing this.
As a guy that likes pizza and lives in a town lacking decent options, I would like to make the 800 mile drive to do my part. Going to break the rules and take more than 1 bite though.
Since 1918 man you gotta respect that!!! The end of World War I... People were still in horse and buggy, cars were just starting to be popular, nobody showered, children worked in factories, gangsters were everywhere, The West was still pretty much wild. 106 years damn...
Yes we need this relic rebuild.. That man takes pride and the love of pizza for the world .. God bless him and everyone at barstool for helping.... much love Dave
This is a legit baker as it brought back memories of us as kids being taught by our dad to use burlap bags to clean our oven slate decades ago.- Memories of baker’s son.
As a North Jersey guy and someone who adores everything about Al and Santillo's pizza, I wanna say thank you to Dave and everyone at Barstool who are leveraging their platform to help Al rebuild a New Jersey institution, and help get the resident artisan master baker/pizzaiolo back up in the saddle doing the thing he was put on this planet to do.
Ive had the honor of trying Santillos pizza one time in my life when i met Al’s brother Vinnie at a physical rehabilitation center. Bless Vinnie i think he’s passed away years ago. We never stayed in touch. He was a great guy and his sister is a wonderful woman.
Dave Is A Great Advocate For Small Pizza Shop's And AL Is A Gem 💎 Of A Pizza Maker Please Find It In Your Heart ❤️ To Donate To A Great American Pizza Maker !! 🇺🇸💪
One slice everyone knows the rules. It’s amazing how pizza has so much diversity. There are so many variables to making a pizza and so many different types of pizza that different people like.
the organic interactions you have with bystanders and people coming by, it’s awesome. some of my favorite moments over the years from your reviews have come from some of the conversations or things you see 😂 and we can all appreciate your willingness to chop it up and even offer a slice instead of pushing people away
One of my all time favorite reviews, it’s on my bucket list to go to this place and meet this man in person! Pure passion and the outcome is beautiful art
And that ladies & gentlemen is a real pizza oven. U know his dad and him have gotten it down to when the pizza needs to come out and is ready over the years, especially with that type of oven that pizza is made in .
I wish I could give so much more, this guy is so funny, my sons and I say that “give it to me Guinea shit” to each other all the time because of this video. Good luck to him and thanks Dave
I would imagine they can't insure an oven like that because it's so old and a risk and also you can't replace it? I mean if that isn't the reason then it has to be ignorance right?
Insurance companies always fuck mom and pop businesses like this. I'm sure they nickle and dimed their way out of paying their fair share of the policy.
I have a 20 year old Porsche 911 to replace it will cost $30-35,000.00 if I wreck it State Farm will give me $12-15,000.00 Having Insurance doesn't mean they will replace what you already have.
Couldn’t he have saved some of the money from his exorbitantly priced pizzas? Could he not have invested some of the money like the rest of us? I don’t understand why we have to give him money so he can replace his business only to go back to overcharging people for pizza? Am I missing something here?
@@ahf5471 you don't have to give him money bro. some people like to pay it forward hoping that if something horrible happens to them, others will help them out in that situation.
Great work Dave,and the t-shirt is fire,got me a large for the cause.Hope Al in the future has a son or a good apprentice to learn over 100 years of experiance in the game,3 generations needs to go on even if its not a family name but willing to work hard and 1 day buy Al out and keep the buisness and name the same to honor the Santillos legacy.
Al is such a real deal class act! The man you see is real and he’s an absolute legend in the pizza community. Nothing beat the time I ordered the focaccia with fresh mutz and San Marzano… Al told me it looked so good that he would have to make one for himself - the ingredients POP on the focaccia. It’s so special. Thank you Dave for everything you’re doing for the community and Al! That oven bakes some of the greatest breads I ever ate around the world. Man’s an artist and a legend of a dying breed. Looking forward to coming back when it’s all good
This guy is straight up Jersey . His story is great and it’s nice seeing him succeed in family business . If u. Like that thin pizza then I’m sure it’s great but it’s gotta have thickness to be really good imo lol.
I'll. Be chipping into the gofundme from Hong Kong. I watch all your reviews, love everything about you and hope to see you in HK, and meet you here some day Presidente EDIT: DONATED USD500 TO THE GOFUNDME. LET'S GOOOOOO BARSTOOL, LETS GO PRESIDENTE
Just donated, how could you not help a fellow out, especially one who has given his life to make something right, this is why people respect Dave, Dave helps out the little guy
In our day of private equity buying up everything and inserting robots in craftsman places, this is refreshing, hope to heck he gets going again, having said all that, it will be nice to have a new mop and bucket swishing around in the new oven....oy vay.

Awesome Dave!! Respect 👊
I'm gonna donate some real guinea shit
Ive never bought from Barstool but this hit me...love the guy needs some employees...GIVE IT TO ME!!
Zero arrogance detected. Pure passion and conviction. What a guy. Everyone knows the rules but only a few people have the ability to write them.
hey shut up
Lool ZEROOOOO. He was just spitting straight FACTS. Lol he’s the real fuckin deal man.. Real Deal master pizzaiolo … true to it not new to it ! 🫡 😂
What a terrible AI bot comment. People are so dumb to upvote this drivel.
🗣️LET EM KNOW
The guy got an 8.3 and said “all other pizza is below me”😂. The guy is the definition of arrogant.

One of the top 10 iconic reviews, everybody knows the rules. And that's a perfect looking pie, R.I.P old school pizza oven.
the oven was salvaged, rest of place could not

8.3 for the pizza, 9.5 for the business and owner.
Are you crazy? He acts like Italy is the best. It's an American style pie made in America.
"Italy is the best." So move back.
@@jayfreedman5186
Who cares?
I would say that Piza is higher than 8.3 but I grew up around people like this and some are my family and for the most part it’s insufferable.
@@jayfreedman5186😂😂😂😂😂 you good bro? You need a fuckin hug? Pipe down
Only thing bigger than Dave's balls is his huge ❤. Keep up the work champ! The small business community needs you and ppl like you more than ever.
Stop simping for the tiny hat guy

Saltillo is an absolute pizza legend. Glad he's back and everyone is helping that man. Can't let an artisan like this fade into oblivion. No way
Such a legend you can't spell his name 😂
@@Neckoyawow you pointed out a typo on the internet, you’re a real winner

Since 1918 man you gotta respect that!!! The end of World War I... People were still in horse and buggy, cars were just starting to be popular, nobody showered, children worked in factories, gangsters were everywhere, The West was still pretty much wild. 106 years damn...

This guy is the pizza yoda , that pizza looked and sounds amazing, that oven is incredible,a life time of dedication to the craft, respect.
Yes we need this relic rebuild.. That man takes pride and the love of pizza for the world .. God bless him and everyone at barstool for helping.... much love Dave

Nice! Don’t forget to shop at your local ones too. Soon all we’ll have is target Walmart lowes Home Depot etc
This man knows da rules..... Old school perfectionist.. Dyin breed
they don't make em like this anymore true gem of a guy
I remember going to this place. It was fantastic. Good luck guys

“Squeeze that. That’s why I’m here.” That didn’t work as well on my wife, but that’s a golden quote.
God bless Santillos. A true neighborhood joint. Good man Dave!!
These reviews are just so full of joy. What a great thing Dave has done elevating these small businesses. The backbone of the country.
Hands down best review of all time. Santillos owns the pizza game, I mean the guy cleans the oven with a pair of old pants!
Top 5 review. Al knows his shit.
One intersting bite, Dave has a huge heart ❤, lets all donate $1, evetyone knows the rules.
That pie looks 10/10 Everything about it, what an OG he is! I need to try that pie so lets help a real one out!
When you are good at what you are doing, that’s the kinda confidence you have. Awesome!
Presidente.... You did it! You reached the FINAL BOSS! Fuckin live this guy!
The paintings over the oven were CRAZY legit!!!
One of my all time favorite reviews, it’s on my bucket list to go to this place and meet this man in person! Pure passion and the outcome is beautiful art
one of my favourite reviews, this guy is a legend
And that ladies & gentlemen is a real pizza oven. U know his dad and him have gotten it down to when the pizza needs to come out and is ready over the years, especially with that type of oven that pizza is made in .
This dude is HIM in making pizzas holy shit man respect
This is the best pizza video of all time. Thanks for re-posting this classic Dave!!😊
Al is the best. Our favorite place when we lived in Elizabeth. Did not know that it burned down. Tragic.
I wish I could give so much more, this guy is so funny, my sons and I say that “give it to me Guinea shit” to each other all the time because of this video. Good luck to him and thanks Dave
Swirling the old pair of jeans to clean the oven is genius lol
That was hilarious. That guy really appreciates what Dave does.
It was a classic from 5 years ago ...guy is a legend
This is awesome. Your 9.9 on the guy is right on.
Santillos is one of my all-time favorite pizzerias, and Al is a legend!
But how in the world did he not have insurance on his business?
I would imagine they can't insure an oven like that because it's so old and a risk and also you can't replace it? I mean if that isn't the reason then it has to be ignorance right?
Insurance companies always fuck mom and pop businesses like this. I'm sure they nickle and dimed their way out of paying their fair share of the policy.
I have a 20 year old Porsche 911 to replace it will cost $30-35,000.00 if I wreck it State Farm will give me $12-15,000.00 Having Insurance doesn't mean they will replace what you already have.
Couldn’t he have saved some of the money from his exorbitantly priced pizzas? Could he not have invested some of the money like the rest of us?

Great work Dave,and the t-shirt is fire,got me a large for the cause.Hope Al in the future has a son or a good apprentice to learn over 100 years of experiance in the game,3 generations needs to go on even if its not a family name but willing to work hard and 1 day buy Al out and keep the buisness and name the same to honor the Santillos legacy.

A true legend! I just donated, encourage you all to donate as well!
I love the pride he takes in his craft. I sincerely hope he gets back in the kitchen as soon as possible…
I still believe the 8.3 is criminally low. Santillo is beyond category - HC.
Got the shirt. Sincere best wishes to Al on the rebuild… 🍕
An all time classic. 🇮🇹
One of my favorite pizza reviews. Help Al.
I'll. Be chipping into the gofundme from Hong Kong. I watch all your reviews, love everything about you and hope to see you in HK, and meet you here some day Presidente
EDIT: DONATED USD500 TO THE GOFUNDME. LET'S GOOOOOO BARSTOOL, LETS GO PRESIDENTE
Donated USD500 to the GoFundMe
I love this place. The first review was legendary.
Planes trains and automobiles 😂in the background
Just down the road in Newark you do have a seaport, airport, train and light rail and an interstate.
Wish i could donate. Businesses like this (small mom and pop shops family owned and operated for generations) deserve to stay around.
its sad that these gems of ppl making pizza the right way are a dying breed
Shirt ordered. Even if I never make it over to Al’s rebuilt shop, America needs him turning pies.
Just donated, how could you not help a fellow out, especially one who has given his life to make something right, this is why people respect Dave, Dave helps out the little guy

Those jeans are cutting his circulation for sure
Brutal,but I was going to post the same😂
Can’t get used to Scott in that chicks winter coat.
Calm down Nancy this was 5 years ago....😂😂😂
Atta boy Al ! Elizabeth represent baby ! Sending ya love from Britton St !
Al is like an Uncle to Dave now. Definitely family vibes 👌
My Father said "If you can't make a good loaf of bread, what the hell good are ya?" That belongs on a T-Shirt Dave.
Dave Pageviews: 8.9 human.
Omg..what a story..Dave you are doing some awesome stuff man. Keep it up
He looked still so young despite being 62. Hope we get enough money together
And sadly the oven is probably gone and you can’t recreate that
He does it by eye, then the timer goes off 😂😂
Yes haven’t heard that phrase in a long time and then proceeds to take another bite love it
Could hear that crunch from Jersey to LA...
1 hr already sold what a great community
This guy, this guy is an OG, He makes me wanna buy a plane ticket
I wish Dave would have tried the Sicilian pie. Been going to Santillo’s for 37 years and in my opinion the Sicilian blows away the regular pie.
I've been on a Sicilian run lately myself. I get in these moods and nothing else will do for awhile.
Ordered my shirt glad to help out. I lost my business to a fire in 2013, I was devastated for months after.
My Father said......! If you can't make a good loaf of bread. What the hell good are you...!
Dave is the man
What a guy, that’s the real Ginny s&#t GIVE IT TO ME! 😂 amazing
Really love the reviews with history. Great job
My favorite pizzeria live 5 min from there ,we will forever be greatful to Dave out here in Elizabeth Nj
What a guy ... wish there was more a him about ! The real deal
Donated! This man deserves a new pizza place! Greetings from The Netherlands.
Just donated. Rooting for you, Al!
This guy CARES ABOUT your pizza! Each and every persons pizza!
Unbelievable it burned down he needs to get back in action ASAP
Much respect sir.
Literally watched the video yesterday from NJ News (5 months old) and said oh no! I hope Dave knows about this! ❤
Dave getting hit with the stick is gold haha
