You'd never think that much cheese would go into the crust, but as it melts and bakes in, it makes the sides extra-crispy. I usually follow Reinhardt's Perfect Pan Pizza approach, and it's worked very well.

To bring it back to honey, yes, a Detroit-style crust with fig jam, walnuts, caramelized onions, and a light honey drizzle... Some spicy sopressata or chorizo would go well with those...
In my mind...the goal is to get as many of the super greasy crusty corners as possible. I don't think that you are understanding that concept if you use a 12 X 8 pan...the smaller the pan, the more corners...your pan is way too big. Think brownie corners.
Maybe something like this?
