Seconded. SoFlo has more in the works. FD's pizza took all the concentration and Busch we could muster.

Got the beer bread cold proofing for that extra flavor.

Shenanigans and more SoFlo tomfoolery to follow tomorrow.

[Bear might even play a game of ass-grab with FD's betterhalf.]
 
Well, I guess I'm defeated...... (sad face)...

But wait! Bitches!.... I give you... The Almighty Chile Juju.....


Bow, NOW!......

It sounds like a heart-stopper, but it really isn't that heavy. I stopped by their place on the way home and had a piece. YUM! It was not greasy or heavy at all. Even with the tater tot, it wasn't totally smothered with cheese, just enough to git 'er done.

Chile JuJu, get your porch light on...I'm Coming Over....NOW!




[edit- ok, so I'm not really coming over right now, but if I hadn't been drinkin' I would be! ]
 
Jeeeebus...there's so much going on in here, it's a full time job keepin' up with it! :mouthonfire: everyone's pizzas look fantastic. I wish we could all get together and do the TD in someone's backyard...like a redneck cook off. (I see some of you already do live by eachother..very cool....I have no chilihead friends...they are all weaklings. :confused: ) So many awesome ideas. I'm going to make some of these, so I can see what's up. If I had enough money I'd recreate all of them before I voted lol.

For my first TD it was a blast making the pizza. Ideas just rush in and take you left and right and back left. (I mean putting fresh lemon zest on top of a pizza...I would have never done that if not for a THP TD. and it was actually awesome. I'm going to have to look them over thoroughly to make a decision. I CAN be bribed ;)

Damn...for a first pizza that looks like the bomb dude. It was my first time too. The crust was the hardest. It tasted good but was a biotch to work with. Great job SS!
