Tonights Pizza

[telehort]

Fired up my portable pizza oven in the driveway tonight and made the neighbors jealous :-)
Here is the link for some pics if you want to see. I made a set called Pizza.

Was that a portable in the driveway?

[telehort]

yes it is.
While not in my driveway, here is a pic of the oven

That is some of the best looking pizza I have seen on the site. Can you post the dough recipe, processes and floor temps. I am still experimenting with flours, starters, temps to try and arrive at the place you seem to be.

Thanks,
Jim

thanks Jim for the kind words.
As far as the dough recipe I am currently using Reinharts Neo-Neoploitan recipe from his American Pie book. My deck temps run about 850 or so when cooking. I am using Guistos Peak Performer flour and have had good luck with that for both my dough and breads.

Wow...those are some great looking pizzas! Drooled all over my keyboard.

Thanks!
One more question. What are you using on your peel (semolina, rice flour, corn meal . . .)?

[telehort]

Jim - I use wooden peels to load pizzas in the oven, I have used both semolina and rice flour over the past and like both, but have been using rice flour a bit more lately.

Thanks again, very helpful.

telehort,
I am intrigued by the oven on a trailor (thinking about doing the same over here). What prevents the whole thing cracking when the trailor goes over bumps? or do you just drive very slowly!
