That looks a good bit better than mine. What's your setup? Looks like a steel and foil to radiate down?

I've modified the whole thing a bit.
Inside, I've layered the kettle pizza rim with another half circle of sheet steel with tinfoil sandwiched between. I have a nice pizza stone that fills the entire circle of the grill grate, so that's my base layer, where I light the firewood. I bent a little guard for the fire that is held down by the 1/4" steel plate that I use to cook the pizzas on.

I then wrap the dome in tinfoil to help radiate and concentrate the heat back down. It cranks up to well past 800 in about 15 mins. Really happy with my last few pizzas, the best I've ever made. Good fluffy dough on the edges and the right amount of firmness on the pie, with some crispy bits here and there.

Mojo Threepwood posted:

Dang that looks good. What marinade did you use for the chicken?

Just winged the recipe with what sounded good.

The marinade (eyeball it all to the amount of chicken you have. You want to coat it, not drown):
Lime juice
Small amount of olive oil (I had a cilantro/onion infused OO)
Splash of fish sauce
Splash of teriyaki sauce
Red Chilis, finely diced
Garlic, minced or grated
Salt/Pepper
Cumin
Onion powder

Let sit for at least an hour.

I diced my chicken into pretty small cubes, so it cooked up pretty fast and had a nice seasoning char, while still being moist and delicious.

I've never even seen a bone-in, did you grab this from a butcher and ask specifically for it? Must have been great.

Bone-in ribeye are pretty common where I'm at, but I did go to a local butcher and have her specifically cut this piece for me. Melted in my mouth!

I'm a pizza nut like blacquethoven and found a good compromise to the home oven vs. the massive outdoor backyard oven. Pizza Party oven, built by a couple Italian dudes in Venice and shipped right to your door.





Portable as hell and fires up to temp super fast. I'm in the works of running a pop-up pizza stand at a few local events this summer, and this bad boy can churn out a pizza every 2-3 minutes if I'm working fast.

I've been seriously looking into getting one of the bigger ones of those. Can it break 850 and hold reliably?

Absolutely. I can get up to and past 900 in 20 mins. It takes good fuel management and a close eye, but you can stoke it and keep it at good pizza temps as long as you have wood on hand. I bought the 52x52, but definitely am looking at the 72x72 later this year if things go well. I love it, there's a lot of charm in the whole thing.

This is my 4th oven I've invested time/money into, beyond my home oven. Started with an Uuni, but it's too finicky and size limited for anything beyond super small parties. The KettlePizza (2nd oven) is a good idea, and works well - but I had to mod it heavily (3rd oven iteration) to get it up to decent cooking temps, but it was space limited for fuel and could only sustain temps for 10-12 mins before seriously taking a dive in heat capacity.

Paella with shrimp, mussels and chicken. Came out great, even if I got an old batch of mussels and had to throw out more than half because they were open before cooking.

Hot drat that looks incredible. I imagine there's wine and bread just out of that picture.

Also, more of the same for lunch. Small bits of parm and gouda that I scrounged, Humboldt Fog, Merlot Bellavitano, some mustard, soppressata and prosciutto.

Totally fair! I've spent 8 years working on my pizza, and have gone through 5 iterations of oven - this Pizza Party is just a rad oven for the money, I'm very proud of it :) You can see my post history in this thread alone - I've come a long way in my pizza and ovens!

Sorry for the poor quality phone pics but I was drinking heavily and watching my football team lose so I'm shocked that I remembered to take any photos at all.
