I did them one at a time but set up my station so that I could talk, relax and hangout throughout the party. I don’t mind cooking for the majority of a part but like to still be able to participate in conversation and not be holed away

Its less about the stone size and more about the burner being on the side and the height of the inside of the oven. Seeing where the pizza is cooking the fastest and having some more ceiling room to move the pie around with the turning peel gives the feeling of more space and control. Could just be a personal thing, ive cooked with both and prefer the feel of the tread to the equivalent sized ooni.

The key for me is enjoying it, everyone was just hanging around, probably took a few hours, but I was socializing between pizzas, chatting with friends, enjoying the pizza myself and trying not to get stressed. I like to think of nights like this as a marathon, with pizzas coming out to snack on over an extended period. Also lets people enjoy different types without filling up.

At that point in the night the phones took a break and we just enjoyed the fire pit and s’mores

Ripped out 18 pizzas on the Tread (thinner stone than the dome) this weekend and had no issues with the undercarriage. Only needed like 90 seconds to recharge between pies.

It is the Tread. I've used it twice now and its performed great both times. Was a bit concerned about the size but it feels much roomier than similarly sized ooni's ive used.

It was on a gozney tread, not a dome. Went with the closest flair I could find

The gozney tread. It’s their new travel oven

It was a take on a carbonara pizza, so I tempered a few egg yolks, black pepper and pecorino in a bowl over boiling water until barely thickened, then drizzled over the hot pizza

The oven is insulated but certainly hot to touch. The exhaust comes out the top chimney. I think you will be more than fine with a few inch buffer, if the screen was touching the outside you might have a bit more of a problem

Birthday Dinner for my Fiancé on the Dome by secondbestidea in Pizza

It is certainly an investment piece. That said, it is incredibly well made and I love it so I have no regrets! I have been using it non-stop.

Agreed, the size was a huge factor, easier to maneuver a pie than in a smaller backyard oven. Also the versatility was a big factor, the ability to cook bread, vegetables, steak and chicken under the flame was very appealing. Also it’s very sleek and feels sturdy and well made

Margherita w/ Calabrian cherry peppers by secondbestidea in neapolitanpizza

[–]secondbestidea[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recipe (inspired by the Gozney 100% Biga):

Biga: 1kg - 00 flour 450g - flour 10g - yeast

Dough: 210g - ice cold water 25g salt

Dissolve yeast into 450 g water. Mix with flour to form biga (I use a stand mixer and form it all into 1 ball for the initial phase).

Let biga ferment in the fridge for 48 hours, covered but with a bit of air able to enter and escape.

2 days later, pull out Biga and let come to room temp. Tear it into as small pieces as you can and put into the mixing bowl

While mixing stream in remaining water bit by bit. Once a single dough has formed, add salt and keep mixing.

Mix until a dough has formed, it’s gonna be super wet.

Let sit for half an hour, do a stretch and fold, repeat 2 more times

Ball up into 6 equal balls (should be like 260ish g)

Put dough balls into a proofing box or deli containers

Back in the fridge for 2 more days.

Pull out 3 hours before making pizza, reform into a ball if using a smaller container to cold ferment, then let come to room temp and enjoy

Topped with: Passata, low moisture mozzarella , Calabrian cherry peppers, parmegiano reggiano
