Dave's Pics of Progress

[Ken524]

Hi, Dave!

Funny you should mention moving. We moved from our WFO house about a year ago. Time really flies. I haven't decided what I'm going to do about a WFO at the new house. The family wants one. I don't think I have a full build left in me. If I do it, I'll probably buy an FB pre-built and build the stand and patio area for it. In the meantime, I'm researching pizza stones for the oven.

Hope you're doing well!
Ken

I moved about 2 years ago from the house where I built this pizza oven. I haven't had WFO pizza since.
I think it may be time for a new thread and and a new oven.

Re: Dave's Pics of Progress

I've had my WFO up and running for 7 years now.

It still works great.

I don't use it as much as thought I would.
But it's great at holidays and at a family get-together.
I think my favorite use is during Thanksgiving.

I think if I would have built it smaller I would use it more.
(faster firing, less wood, etc)

But then again, when I'm cooking a turkey, ham, stuffing, and squash all at the same time... I can't imagine it smaller.

Re: Dave's Pics of Progress

I bet it does!

Dang Kemo! I was in Austin a few weeks ago.
I should have asked if I could see your oven!

That would have been really neat.

Hey Frances!

Been busy with other hobbies. LOL

Fish, life, remodels.

I never quit I guess.. I still love the oven.
Learn more every time I use it.

And I think I am finally happy with my dough recipe...

How is life in your part of the world?

Wooohooo, a voice from the past!!!

Hey Dave, how're you doing???

...I feel a bit the same way about my grill. One day it will match the oven, I swear.

Re: Dave's Pics of Progress

Oh! I saw a show about them.. Bobby Flay's cook off.

He challenged a couple of fellows in New Orleans... Bobby got whipped.

I saw that one a few weeks back! I always enjoy seeing Bobby get whipped.

Re: Dave's Pics of Progress

A Muffuletta is a New Orleans specialty. A good one is to die for:

"The sandwich consists of the round loaf of crusty Italian bread, split and filled with layers of sliced Provolone cheese, Genoa salami and Cappicola ham, topped with Olive Salad: a chopped mixture of green, unstuffed olives, pimientos, celery, garlic, cocktail onions, capers, oregano, parsley, olive oil, red-wine vinegar, salt and pepper."

Here's the recipe (includes a bread recipe just begging to be tried in a pizza oven)

Re: Dave's Pics of Progress

Had a little friend over for pizza.

Uninvited.. but there's always plenty of room and food at my house.

Re: Dave's Pics of Progress

Glad you're back!
Mickey Mouse again this year?

No... We're going to Disney in October. Sort of turning into a tradition with us.

My son and I went to the Bonnaroo Music Festival in TN last week, then we all drove down to New Orleans for 2 days of French Quarter fun.

BTW, the French Quarter is open for business and the Muffaletta's are fine!
