Great video, just a few hints from using this oven myself. 1) get a perforated peel. Lets all that excess flour fall off. You don't want all that burned flour on the bottom of your pizza, it's very bitter. Use a 50/50 mix of semolina & flour under the pie for stretching and on the peel. Make sure it isn't stuck before you try launching the pie in the oven. 2) get grilling gloves. 3) get an IR temp gun. You want the floor of the oven to be over 700F. The temp gauge on the top is not the temp you want. Let the oven preheat at least 20 minutes so the stone gets hot. 4) NEVER put your cooked pizza on a cold stone, instant soggy bottom. Get a cooling rack, like a cookie rack or pizza rack and let it cool on that for a minute or so, then put on a cutting board and cut. Enjoy!!!

Thank you for all the advice!!! I still have not perfected my pizza, I will keep practicing with the tips you gave!! Thanks for your support!!!!

[@brfam1977]

Corn meal works great too. I always give mine a quick scrape between each pizza.

If you let the stone heat up more then bottom of your pizza will be more brown. Also if your pizza gets stuck just get a pizza pan flip it upside down on the top of the pizza then flip the whole pizza with the pan and the pizza peel then flour the bottom of pizza and the peel. Then repeat the process. Flip it right side up and adjust the toppings and you should be good to go to put it in oven.

Thanks for demonstrating this little oven that punches above its weight. Good for you not editing out your mistakes. Humility is a virtue. I've watched several videos on the Expert and it will indeed reach over 800°. I just got mine along with the accessory kit like you have. Can't wait to get started.

parchment paper on your peel... Pizza on that... Slides right off... then just grab and pull on paper and it pulls right out 1-2-3...SIMPLE and works every time

[@boatdesigner12]

Add some chunks of wood on top of the charcoal for even more flavor

Excelente video amigo te felicito

[@Joe-ht2zy]

Looks great for your first time!!

[@brentmattson2784]

I think if you let the stone get hotter before you put your pizza in you would get some better blistering on the bottom. Looks awesome tho and it’s hundreds of dollars cheaper than competitors!

[@maczfamily7258]

Yes you are correct, letting it get very hot is the key, Its been fun using it, just have to keep playing around with it to make better pizza, Thanks for your support!!

[@alexivalencia6235]

For starters, never use store-bought dough with a high-temp oven. Sugar burns at high temps and burns your crust (burns - not leoparding).

[@joseph-ow1hf]

When the price dropped to less than $100, I decided to try. I don't think it is insulated enough to really get as hot as the more expensive rivals. I even tried replacing the thin stone w/ a steel, but can't get either up to the ideal of close to 900º F. I might try wrapping it with the insulation hot rodders use on engine headers. But I've only tried a few cooks. Not saying it's junk....it does work ...sorta. But not a discount Ooni. (or equivalent) Also....the legs don't fold for easier storage. Next year.....I'll spend the money for one of the upmarket brands.

[@joseph-ow1hf]

Ok, instead of header tape, I ordered a high temp ceramic fiber, foil faced thermo blanket. Thinking secure to oven by using pieces of wire twisted at bottom. I have some left over aluminum flashing that I can cut into strips to use to cinch down the exposed fiber cut edge. Will post with results. What the heck, why not try for $30? I really think the problem I have w/ this oven is the lack of insulation. Oh......you have to use wood chunks if you want flame.

[@paulgeek]

The dough is raw on the bottom stone never got hot enough

[@williambelott1897]

NICELY DONE!

[@jamesaka007]

It's been proven that along with semolina, cornmeal, or whatever on your stone JUST BEFORE putting in the pie...USING a wooden peel first...THEN using your metal peel to rotate and pull it out when it s done.

[@maczfamily7258]

One tray last about 3 pizzas but you have to put wood to make it last longer and it makes the temp go up. Thanks for your support glad we can help!!!

Cornmeal or semolina flour is like ball bearings under your pizza… will glide right off the peel.

[@maczfamily7258]

Thanks for the advice!! I will try cornmeal!!

[@TekFred87]

I think the wife and I will get one, I’m just wondering if it gets to 700+ degrees how much heat pours out the chimney? I like to cook on our front porch with a 8’ foot ceiling with vinyl drop ceiling panels. I don’t want to melt a hole from the updraft of the chimney. Great video, thanks guys! As always keep on Grillin’ & Chillin’ my friends 👍🏼😎🇺🇸. Much love from WV!

[@maczfamily7258]

I dont think it gets that hot to melt it but I would not take that chance, try it first with no ceiling and go from there. Thanks for your support!!

[@hiflyer53qwc]

You are just going to be safer with a propane unit without the chimney.

[@mwatwell67]

[@colinbutler2552]

truth be told,, you can achive the exact same thing on ANY grill.....

[@HeathRho]

no you can't. the fire above the pizza is what cooks it through... can you get a nice blistery crust on a grill? sure, but your toppings won't be cooked through.

[@chrisgoble4620]

Where did you get the pizza peel? I have a few but they are way too large. I bought my pizza oven today and I am currently lighting the coals.

Thank you for the vid. Does the bottom of the legs get really hot? I wonder if I can put it on a glass table

[@maczfamily7258]

The legs do not get to hot but I would recommend putting it on the glass table because some of the charcoal ashes fall out when you open the back. Thanks for your support!!

[@josephnardino1678]

For being as cheap as this is, I'm pretty impressed with how well insulated it is. Was totally fine on my glass table.

[@josephnardino1678]

@@maczfamily7258 that's my biggest complaint really. It's impossible to top off the fuel without hot embers escaping. I put a little galvanized flower pot under the back and they helped. Now that the warm weather is here, remind me not to make pizza in flip flops!

Nothing but good stuff about this oven. It's currently on rollback for $97. I use Trader Joe's pizza dough instead of trying to make my own.

[@Grayald]

Got a serious question for everyone. I haven't seen a single good review of this oven yet. All the pizzas look really bad. And I can't tell if the oven just sucks, or if it's because the people that buy it don't know how to make pizza. Not trying to be an asshole. This is kind of an important thing to know if anyone's considering buying it. I'm leaning heavily to no.

[@Jxordan]

Running into the same issue. What did you figure out?

[@Grayald]

@@Jxordan nothing. I just decided to leave it be. I'm assuming there's a reason no reputable channels are bothering with it. They all know better. So the only people getting this are suckers who don't know any better and don't know how to make pizza who just assume that this oven will improve the crappy Pizza they're already making. Personally, I can get something close enough to neapolitan pizza from my home oven, and I can get perfect New York style out of it, which I prefer. If I were going to buy a pizza oven though, this one's off the table. I was looking at the Halo before I decided not to bother with a pizza oven.

[@Jxordan]

@@Grayald thanks, I was hoping to expand past my home oven as well. I was looking at videos about cooking on a charcoal grill and came across this. Probably easier to not have another piece of equipment anyways. Can easily rotate between my charcoal grill and propane grill in the summer to avoid heating the house... In the winter the oven is great

[@hiflyer53qwc]

I made a dome to fit in my bbq. I had great hopes for it because I had been making pretty good pizzas just on the grill for years. It just didn't work and neither will those cheap non insulated pizza ovens.

[@HeathRho]

all evidence points to the contrary.
