New proofer. And pizza

The mad shutter-bug turned his back and the family descended like a bunch of vultures

They sure did! I should have made another. The grandkids acted like they never had pizza before.

Jeez, I’ve been fighting off the Ooni urge, now you bring this up…..I also just bought a book on bread because noboundaries has me itching to do bread. I thought I’d be pulled into sausage making first, but it’s looking like bread and pizza may win

Incredible looking pizzas, they have me drooling!

That's a fine looking pie Steve! I don't know what a proofer is, nor will I look to find out. The Ooni seems to be dedicated towards the Euro thin crust version of pizza, limited toppings. I'm from the old school yankee way of loading them up with everything imaginable, thick crust but still a crunchy bottom bite. Jury is still out on the Ooni, but that pizza sure does look fine!

Thanks Jed! I plan on making bread this coming weekend. I've always had issues with proofing dough. This sure worked well with the pizzas.

Doesn't work. Don't ask me how I know!

Thanks Ray! You can get a fairly loaded pie from an Ooni. Just have to keep rotating it.

Maybe we need a support group like A A.
Me: "Hi, I'm Dan and I'm a compulsive kitchen gadget buyer."
Group: "Hi, Dan!"

I own the Oooni Koda 16.
You are right that the Ooni is dedicated to Italian style thin crust pizza.
Even on low flame settings the heat is to high for thick crust pizza. It will be burnt on the outside while still raw at the inside.

However. It is a "hack". You can turn the dial slowly against the off position to get an ultra low flame suitable for longer baking times and thick crust pizza

Yup. That's how I do them. Look at my first post.
Another pizza that comes out great. Pretty well loaded to.

Overloaded Pepperoni Detroit-style Pizza

This maxed-out Detroit-style pan pizza is topped with both large flat disks and small cup-and-char circles of pepperoni.
