    Mad two giant pizzas.  Gave slices to 4 different neighbors plus snack sticks... 
    It looks mighty fine brother. Reminds me rectal ampulla 👍

    @FarmingPhD. Thanks!  

    I mostly cook them in the oven cranked all the way up - 550F convection on top of a baking "steel".

    It's not really steel but some aluminum or magnesium alloy.  Almost 0.5" thick.  

    My work was junking an instrument called an inductively coupled plasma spectrophotometer, which probably cost a quarter million back in the 90s.  Anyway, I grabbed the optical backbone and cut it up on my table saw.  Likely the most expensive baking steel on the forum.  B)

    I have a Roccbox, but I probably use the oven 75% of the time.  I make a different dough for the oven.

    Thanks Nola, our weather is turning here and got hankering for pizza and thought you were maybe rolling yours in the oven.  Might try tossing the pizza stone in the oven next week for a few pizzas now.  

    That plate of yours sounds cool, definitely good heat transfer.

    @caliking This made me think of you. (Actually I’m guilty at times)

    This made me chuckle :) I'm usually waiting for it to "look" right when I'm cooking Indian grub.

    Not been cooking much the last week or so. I had prepped a few easy freezer meals in anticipation. 

    Fired up the Mini Max last night for a simple dinner. Chili cheese dogs and stovetop Mac hit the spot.

    I’ve been to the elevator (camp cargill) twice today and sat in line for a combined 3.5 hours. I’ve read the whole internet and patiently waiting for someone to post something interesting

    Changed both sets of car tires to winters today - and broke my torque wrench in the process - and am now at round two of raking. I’m projecting a total of roughly fourty-ish bags this year.

    Updated my iMac to "Big Sur".  It failed the first attempt, and prompted me to try again; I did so, and the progress bar made it 1/3 of the way across, and froze there for 4 hours.  
    A buddy suggested unplugging it, plugging it back in, then powering up in "Safe" mode (hold down the Shift key while powering up).  It worked!
    Not a happy feeling, having a crash during an OS install....   :o

    Those are nice pies.

    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...

    Not cheap but a frozen Franklin brisket gets a good review from Mad Scientist BBQ.

    Ouch! not knowing how you use yours, no offense, I pamper my torque wrench and use it for final tightening only; use a cheap breaker for loosening and initial tightening.

    @Eggpharmer Pies look great. Is that ooni pro? is the burner L or U shaped? I used to have an uuni 2s that ran on pellets, great for first few pies but a PITN when it was time to add pellets.  Ooni has come a long way.  I now have an Ardore and happy with it.
    edit: looks like Koda 16 with L shaped burner.  I was wondering if it's U shaped it could be a challenge rotating the pie for even heat.
