Pizza in the WFO

[scarbelly]

I have been so busy trying to finish up with my dad's estate that I have not had much time to play with the oven in a while. We had some friends over for a pizza nite and to test a "pizza sprinkle" invented by a friend from another site. 

Oven management is about as difficult as fire management in a smoker. Still working on managing 3-4 pizza's in the oven at one time  

Since we were serving 8 we needed a lot of dough. This is one of two pans we made

Assembling pizza's 

This one was the overall favorite 

Smoked Chicken, dipped in wing sauce on top of 3 cheese mac and cheese

These cook in about 3 minutes at 750-800*

Adding some arugula and parmesan 

Adding some basil

The dark crumbs on the outer crust is from the "pizza dust" - it just changed color but still tasted good

Buffalo Chicken - 3 Cheese mac n cheese out of the oven - this was a HIT! 

Time for dessert 

And since dinner came out so well - why not have one for breakfast the next morning 

Thanks for looking

Great looking pizza

.You are certainly running that oven hot,thats real fast food. Once you get the dough right you are more than halfway there. At those temps you could do cook on the rundown.If you have dough sorted out you could do bread if of course that interested you or oven dry tomatoes. Not a dry bit of firewood in my neck of the woods so wont be making pizza anytime soon.

Look great! What dough recipe you using?...JJ

We are still experimenting with dough - this run was 3 different dough recipes - one wheat -one quick rise and one sourdough.  All 3 were OK.  I just bought a bakers scale so we can start making dough using % instead of measurement and I think that will step up the dough considerably. From everything I have read 65% dough's are where I want to be

We did a chicken and some bread after it got down to 400 or so - love the ability to use the oven for lots of stuff

I still can't get over how great those pizzas look. Just one more peek at them!

That would be so awesome to have one of those, but I'd walk out and find a kid, dog, cats, bears, coyotes or such in it!

Anything but the kids and dogs and I'd fire it up! There's so many feral cats running around here and can't do anything about them.
