food The Last Great Pizza Thread

Hell yeah, I would crush that pizza Jay. As long as therenot TOO much Kimchi, but it doesn't look like it. It looks well balanced.

Listen to me, who the heck do I think I am talking like that, Guy Fietti? Guy Ferrerri? Guy Feterri?

You know who I mean.

Love the topping choices, although I have a love/hate thing with pepperoni. Even if it is the good stuff I want it at the edge if being burnt and all crispy. Limp pepperoni is kinda nasty.
 
Especially when they are paper thin and limp, I like it thicker with a crisp edge but it can still have chew, unless those thin cheap ones to save $ lol.
 
You can also dice your own pepperoni, tastes great diced on a pie in fact. Like bacon bits.
 
What's worked for me is baking the dough just until firm, pulling, putting the toppings and stuff on and then returning to heat. Otherwise they don't bake right at the lower temps. At least that's what has worked for me. Especially when using something oily like pesto. Otherwise center gets all soggy. 
 
pre-baking the crust is nice, I guess depending on how thick it is. I have mine out ready to be baked in an hour, will put the cheese on once its baked so not over cooked. Have Spinach in their with fresh tomatoes on top, that should prevent them from burning lol.
 
Salami & Basil Pizza
 
Cooked this pie in late November(In the Blackstone), but completely forgot to post it.

Once it was out of the cooker, I added some fresh basil:

Couple of slices on a plate:

For the last year or so, I've been going with a 50/50 ratio of sliced provolone and grated mozzarella. The provolone gives it a fuller flavor, has a nice "pull" and browns quite nicely.

It was mighty tasty!

Do you preheat the stone?

For oven pies usually 8 minutes is the sweet spot for me. If it is soggy, could be too much sauce or dough needs to be stretched thinner.


Haven't made a pie in forever.
