I'm trying to find ways to spend more time with my in laws and my partner together. Her dad has a big Blackstone backyard plancha (so like a giant flat top grill). Any tips on cooking pizza on a Blackstone specifically or a grill in general? I'm a mid tier home pizza maker but I know the basics and I have a baking steel and a stone. Any tips or links are appreciated.

Yes, sometimes a pizza cracker is exactly what I want. That’s a fair fraction thinner than I’ve ever managed. Guess I’m aiming for even thinner next time, because that looks great.

I don't like that for pizza but I do Sonoran burritos with that kind of thickness. You end up having to cook them on a wok because you need the curve to offset the surface area or you won't find a big enough flat surface to cook them. Apparently that's kind of close to the traditional method. It doesn't require yeast though, and I found that getting actual Sonoran wheat flour adds a delicious buttery nuttiness. I'll make a bunch for burritos and my wife will end up just eating them unadulterated.

This looks exactly like a bar near me called Colony Grill, their are highly known and sought after for their take on "bar-style" super thin pizza. Not always what I want, but when I do god drat it does a hot oil and sausage pie hit the spot.

Neighbours chickens are laying like crazy and we get dibs on the surplus so...



Black Olives, egg added for last ten seconds of cooking. The pic doesn't do it justice, the yolk was beautifully runny.



My new favorite, ndjua calabrese and stilton. hosed up the launch but was tasty as hell.



Olive and Oregano foccacia with the excess dough

The bakery job I'm quitting has a machine that can make 1-2mm thick dough circle as wide as a half-sheet pan (18" i think?).

It's small enough that you *could* use it at home, and even runs on a 120/240v cord.

Question on freezing dough.

I usually make NY style dough (flour salt water yeast is all that’s in it) and let it cold ferment for three days in the fridge. Then I pull an hour before cooking and let it come to room temp.

I made a bunch of dough a few days ago in preps of having people over but plans changed. While I can eat 4 pizzas over two days, it’s probably not a great idea.

What’s the process for freezing/thawing/reusing this dough? It’s balled right now but has expanded due to the cold ferment. Not sure if I should squeeze out the air bubbles and then freeze in shrink wrap or something else.

This is the way. I make a batch of 8 every few weeks and freeze them. Very little difference in the end product.

Take them out to thaw in the fridge the night before, and then out on the counter before cooking as usual.

I've gone straight from the freezer to the counter a few times, which just takes 3-4 hours of course. But it still worked OK.

I tend to just freeze the cooked pizzas, that way I can have homemade pizzas in 10 mins for lunch from the normal oven.

And thanks everyone for the kind words and support! I’ll try and keep the thread updated as we get into construction. One thing I can share is our sign that we just approved to build. Took a couple iterations to find the best design vs. budget but we got there!

Motor City Elote pizza…







Brick cheese edge, parkay butter, tajin, and cotija topped with light mozz and wood fired corn. Finished with chipotle aioli and cilantro lime aioli, fresh cilantro, and cotija.

78% hydration dough pan proofed in the fridge for 72hrs, then room temp proof for 8 hours. Dimpling for the first two hours every 30 mins.
Parbake at 500, cool completely, wrap in plastic and freeze!

Light as a cloud, crispy bottom, perfect cheese edge. My best Detroit so far, and I’ve got 4 more frozen ready to go later this week.

How do you distribute the time as far as like how long do you parbake and then how long do you cook on the final cook?

Looks great!

If you're doing this in a normal home oven would I do this on the steel (warmed up for an hour) or just on a rack?

Got an ooni koda 12 for my birthday.

First attempt:

Incinerated, raw in the middle

Fourth one:

Edible!

Had a very hard time stretching my dough. I used KA bread flour at 60%, bulk ferment in the fridge for 48 hours, divided into balls and let rest at room temp fro 6 hours.

Maybe ball it up/separate before you put it in the fridge.

Did you take it out of the fridge, wait 6 hours, and then try to ball/seperate? If so that would definitely explain why you couldn’t easily stretch it. Maybe try taking it out of the fridge and seperating/balling it immediately, then let it rest for a few hours before trying to stretch if you want to keep the bulk ferment going.

I divided it and then let it sit at room temp for 6 hours. I'd stretch it reasonably thin and get it on the peel and it would spring back.
