Over the course of two days (Sat and Sun) I did two types of dough. First was fermented caputo 00 blue bag pizzeria dough 70% hydration that took about 20 hours. Dough came out really good but I learned that this recipe was much better done at home since it was colder at the cabin so the hydration was a bit much. Also at 6000ft elevation it took a while to warm up the oven. What usually took 15-20 mins at home I waited over an hour until it was at 800* ish for me to cook the pizza
I did an al pastor style pizza
Pretty darn good but the cold + the elevation didn't let me reach my intended product
As I got ready to launch my second pesto, grilled chicken pie below, it went down hill and a failed lunch due the dough sticking to the peel farked everything up :tsk: I tried to recover but made an even more of a mess, with cheese, dough and ingredients all inside the Roccbox. :shock: So I took out what ever I could and let it burn everything to a crisp, shut 'er down and called it a night. At least I had one pie in so it wasn't too bad.
Sunday morning I cleaned the Roccbox, blew out all the residue, char and ash and got her set up for another go :becky:
I made a new batch of dough with caputo self-rise flour this time. I froze the dough balls from the night before for another time.
Al pastor style pizza again
Better results but my dough from the night before was far more superior
Next I did the pesto grilled chicken pizza again
No accidents this time around and pretty happy with the results. Damn, if you think brisket is hard playing with dough will give a run for you money. Only thing to do is keep trying. :becky: Thanks for looking and many more cooks on the way to get it where I want it. I left the Roccbox at the cabin so it'll my toy up there since I have the Blackstone at home.
