First cook on the Ooni 16”.
Was much easier to launch and rotate the pizza and temp held real nice.
I did flop the **** out of my 2nd pizza. Not enough flour and it stuck on the peel. Salvaged most of it.
First was a no red sauce and me cheese breakfast ingredients for wife. Last was Italian sausage.
Thanks for looking.

Thank you,
Darian

     Wow! That's your FIRST attempt?! 

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Your stand makes me really nervous, lol. 
    Coleman, Texas
    Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...
    "Bourbon slushies. Sure you can cook on the BGE without them, but why would you?"

    It’s kinda similar to the Karu I got on kick starter. Cooked on it once with wood and once with the gas burner. 
    This Koda 16 cooks much easier.
    These were 260-270 dough balls and still cooked in less than 2 minutes.
     Thanks

    I love LORA to death but your pizza looks so much better.

    She doesn’t like tomato based sauce on pizza and allergic to dairy so no cheese.
    So it’s basically a dry sandwich.
    I think this cooker is going to be great for shrimp, fish and oysters.

    How about a Naples style marinara pie (tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil, oregano, fresh garlic, fresh basil, sea salt), but sub the marinara with pesto? I'll bet that would be great!

    Yes please!

    Darian, did you take a pic of the underside? Curious about leopard spotting.

    No, didn’t get a bottom crust photo this time. But it was cooked nice on bottom.

    Thanks. Pls post a pic next time. I like the look and price of the Ooni 16, the size too, but before I buy one, I gotta see leopard spots! I just watched a YouTube video by the head dude of Ooni. He made two pies, but still didn't show the bottom. Looking for this...
