The 007 is a baking machine!

Yes it is Keith.

Im enjoying "learning to bake"

Lets face it, i have mastered bbq the challenge is gone.

Seriously though, its fun learning all this new stuff. I still learn stuff from bbq cooks but not so much with every attempt. When i bake something i have no idea how things will turn out....so many things to try for the first time.

That looks great! I can't wait to try that myself when I finish my "007" conversion.

To answer your question at the of the original post....yes, all the time. I also drink my coffee immediately after it's brewed.

Definitely happens to the best of us. ....after the dough is rested though it's ALL GOOD!

I'm in with the corn meal crowd,,cant be to bad,i cant stand grit's,corn bread,any of that stuff but it's fine under pizza :)

get a peal,for real.

hot pizza is why they make beer !!

I use Kraft/store brand cheese and usually get slices to stack and dice, rather than using the pre-shredded. But what makes it for me is using a 60/40 mozzarella/provolone combination, then sprinkling lightly (lightly for me) over the top with freshly grated parmesan.

Something I'd forgotten that OP made me remember is that I like pizza best two different ways: 1) after sitting for a good 5 minutes so it can gel really well, and 2) sloppy molten right out of the oven so it burns the roof of my mouth. Each way has its own rich charms.

Nice pie, I use corn meals and burn my mouth everytime

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks "this farking pizza is too hot to hold - so I'll quickly shove it in my mouth!"

Nice pie!

Been having good luck with corn meal between the dough and the peel.
I used to dust the stone, but it burned too fast and left too thick a layer of char on the pizza. Looked really pretty with the sheets of flame washing over the stone though.

Does anyone else eat hot pizza knowing they are going to get cheese burns on the roof of your mouth but do it anyway?[/QUOTE]

I use a screen for about the first minute or so (depending on how hot) then just slide it off.
Having said that...asymmetric pies are far superior to symmetric pies.
Believe me when I tell you this thing.

Ha I forgot to answer that question. When I'm hungry and there's hot pizza logic goes out the window and ive definitely been burned a few times.

I have one of these and it makes putting on and taking off the pizza too easy.

I do this to transfer my pizza crust to the stone from my cutting board. I saw it on an episode of Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives and gave it a try. Works great.
