Wood 🪵 Fired 🔥 Pizza 🍕

The kids got me a wood fired pizza oven for Christmas 🎄 and it took me until May to put it together.

The maiden voyage was tonight while the grandkids were visiting and it has me interested.

Lawson and Kenlee hanging with Dubs and Nana.

I used kiln dried wood from Huck’s Gas Staion ⛽️ and also discovered you can get a big box at Sam’s Club for a better price.

Smokin! 💨
Tonight we went simple with a Pillsbury crust that we pre-baked in the oven for five minutes with hopes that it would be more firm and slide in easily.

We used Great Value sauce, pepperoni from a bag and mushrooms from a can. Not fancy, but easy.

I put some flour to help it slide off the big pizza spatula that came with the oven. It helped a little. You slide the pizza onto a stone that also came with it and was preheated.
Voila!

Although it got a little black on the bottom, the crunch factor was its redeeming feature for me. We will get some better ingredients and branch out as I get more comfortable with how it works. One thing I especially want to try is cooking a 🥩 steak in a cast iron 🍳 skillet, as well as potato 🥔 wedges and 🥕 carrots when the the steak is done. ✅
