Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today
-
@Chap My friend has the Ooni Koda and we just bought one for my sister in law for her birthday. I have only used my friend's one once but from that experience I would definitely recommend Ooni. Ridiculously quick and to a great quality, super easy if you have the gas ones and very portable as well!
Cool thanks @AdamC I probably will go for one that can do both, wood and gas. I like the idea of doing wood stove pizza

Making a ton of chicken stock today, to get through the next month or two of cooking. Bought a new freezer to keep in the garage, so looking to stock it up (hehe) with some extra staples.

@Chap pizza looks very good
Perhaps you also want to check Lotusgrill, which are portable and pretty useful, fast heating-up charcoal grills. They can also be used with a 'Pizzastein', but I haven't made Pizza on them, yet.

Looks brilliant, @Chap
Are you using your kamado for that? What kind of stone?
Also, is your process to parcook with sauce, then top and finish? Looks that way, just wanted to confirm.

Thanks @mclaincausey

Didn't do it on the kamado this time, but tried before. My rangecooker in the kitchen generates faster higher temperatures. I use a simple round pizza stone that I preheat for about an hour.
Also, is your process to parcook with sauce, then top and finish? Looks that way, just wanted to confirm.
Yes excatly. Prebaked the pizza with tomato sauce for about 4 minutes then added olive oil, mozzarella and other toppings. I do pizza as Ken Forkish described in his book: The Elements of Pizza. Can highly recommend that book if you want to go deeper into pizza.

In fact I have the spiral-bound version of that book! Thanks @Chap

Thanks @endo that's a nice portable little grill but I think it won't work that good for pizza. You need a good isolated cover or closed grill to let the heat circulate. Otherwise the dough would be well baked due to the hot stone within a short time but the cheese won't melt.

@Chap It looks like you could be in competition with the pizza van at the Fallen Acorn during the anni party. Pizza looks great by the way.

Yesterday I smoked a meatloaf for 4 hours. Today I sliced and seared it, and made a handheld on a tapioca flour tortilla with lemon aioli and sliced cornichons. It was way better than it had any right to be, and we are running it back tomorrow night with the last of the meatloaf.
Also spent time making mini breaded crab cakes for a party.
