    Here is another great recipe for buns. I like these as well as Joshuha’s recipe. Remember to watch the size, 100 gr or less, 130 gr is a very large bun

    I have thought about vac sealing them but wondered if they would flatten out when thawed?  I guess you would just take them out of the vac bag to thaw 🤓

    From your earlier pizza threads I know you like thin crusts. Without rolling them with a pin which is the reason I thought you wanted the Freezer-Tite then I’m curious how you got them thin using sticky dough in the past. BTW those were beautiful pies!
    I would previously stretch them out by hand.

    Ron, unfortunately it ended up chargrilled and New Orleans style oysters instead of anus. Still a treat 👍


    Nice, just a notch down from eating a char-grilled oyster from a shaved anus.  Presentation is under-rated.

    Ron, unfortunately I didn’t get to test out the new carbon steel Detroit pizza pan due to time constraints. With that said, thought I would have the oysters one more time 👍



    On a side note, if I had 1/64 of your money I would eat things like this way more often. Must be nice having unlimited money my friend. Unfortunately I will never know.

    That shouldn't be an issue. The frozen buns will occupy the same volume of space in the bag when they thaw, as they did when frozen.

    Guess I R corn fused! Do you bake these first and then freeze them? Or divide and roll the raw dough into balls before freezing…then thawing…then baking?

    If you're planning to freeze some, I would bake --> wrap individually--> freeze--> vac seal--> back in the freezer. 

    The usual MO this side is to bake them, let them sit out at RT for 2-3 days, then refrigerate. They're usually gone in a week or so.

    We eat them first day and wrap and freeze the that evening. They taste fresh after thawing

    Ron, the meatballs are not homemade, the sauce is a mixture of 3 different jar sauces, the cheese is out of a bag and the dough mix is out of a bag. But here it is right off the BGE. Detroit style pizza out of the new “blue steel” pan.

    For anyone interested in the Detroit pizzas, here is the steel pan. Another popular pan is the Loyds aluminum pan.
