Food & Wine named this wood-burning pizzeria the best pizza in North Carolina

North Carolina is one of the sneaky best pizza states in the country, and one of the biggest food magazines just named our best pizzeria. The wood-fired pies from Mission Pizza Napoletana have been named the best pizzas in North Carolina by Food & Wine magazine. The famed Winston-Salem spot has a stack of national accolades, including a James Beard semifinalist nod for Best Chef: Southeast for owner Peyton Smith. While pizza is now and forever the star at Mission, Food & Wine notes that Smith makes much more than pies, including his popular “Pizzakase” dinners, a prix fixe meal of dishes. “His Pizzakase experience includes a multi-course pizza tasting menu that celebrates all things pizza (i.e., techniques, ingredients, preparations, etc.) around the world, while his à la carte menu changes frequently, always including wood-fired pizzas with an airy and chewy crust and thoughtfully sourced toppings,” Food & Wine wrote in a blurb. Mission Pizza opened in 2014 as Winston-Salem’s first Neapolitan style pizzeria. In the years since, Mission has collected worldwide acclaim, including the highest ranking of any pizzeria in the South (outside of Miami) in the Top 50 Pizza list, an international rating agency considered the top voice
