How I Make Grandma Sheet Tray Pizza

Frankie's Sheet Tray Pizza Recipe
Recipe for two 14x20 Sheet Trays.
8C Flour
0.5TBS table salt OR 1TBS Kosher Salt
4C water
2TBPS Olive Oil
1/2tsp instant yeast
Steps:
Combine the flour, salt and yeast in a large pot, mixing bowl or clean plastic storage box. Mix with a wooden spoon.
Add the Olive oil and the water, and mix with a wooden spoon until homogenous - about 5 minutes (the mixture should be wetter than your average dough).
Cover with plastic wrap or a tight fitting lid and leave at room temp for 12 hours.
After 12 hours, it should have doubled in size, punch the dough down and mix it around a bit more, cover and allow to rise for another 12 hours.
After the 24 hour period, repeat the steps above, and transfer the dough to the fridge - if it won’t fit in the fridge, follow the same steps above for 24 more hours (48 hours total).
1 hour before making the pizza, turn your oven to 450º, remove the dough from the rising container and split into two equal sized loafs, cover with a rag or plastic and allow to rest for at least 40 min.
Gather your cooking vessels. 2 sheet trays, or one sheet tray and a cast iron pan, or one sheet tray used two times.
Pour 2tbsp olive oil into the pan, take one of the dough balls and roll it out with a glass bottle or rolling pin. Stretch the dough out to the size of you pan, and place it into the pan.
Open the can of tomatoes and pour 14oz into a bowl, crush the tomatoes by hand, then with a large spoon spread them all over the dough. Sprinkle Mozzarella all over as well, add a generous sprinkling of salt all over and feel free to add any toppings you may have.
Bake the pizza for about 15 min or until the crust has begun to turn brown.
Repeat with the second dough log.

It cracks me up that you're making this in a field.

Came from watching Frankie Cook's years ago on NYC TV channel 25. 💙💚💛💜💙💜💛💚

[@jojo21609]

Frankie, I’m so glad I found your channel. You’re an awesome teacher. Thanks for sharing your recipes with us.

[@mikaelmikael200]

He has a few shows that are awesome too! He's truly an unbelievable chef!

[@notsosure5924]

Whoaa 2010 Frankie looked like a baby 😂😂😂 continue to age like wineee man 🍷 Thanks for this recipe!

[@JeffRebornNow]

I just started watching. He doesn't look like he's aged at all.

[@Experiencethehack]

This video was awesome man....super fan ...keep it up. Doing this recipe/routine for sure 👍

[@SaminSays]

Love the throwback clips to young Frankie!

[@TheSingingBoy1234]

He’s aging like fine wine 😍🥰

[@killrkittn]

Frankie! I like the number 420 as well... You're a man of fine knowledge. I like that 😉

[@SuperHomick]

That 0:32 throwback made me relive so many good memories. Thanks for everything you've done and still doing, Frankie.

[@MsSheilaC]

I grew up w my (Italian) mom making sheet pizza every friday, non fail. Pizza Fridays. : ) And OMG - when I asked (later when I moved out) how to make the dough, she said eaxctly that! "Just use 'enough'....no measurements haha

[@kungfukaity]

I’ve been so into making homemade pizza lately, it’s so therapeutic!

[@anitraahrens905]

Thanx, Chef Frankie! This pizza is my friend Jeff's absolute favorite pizza.

[@ashawilliams4683]

FRANK! you genuinely taught me most of what I hold dearest to my heart when cooking. I started watching you when I was 14 and I'm 22 now, almost 23, can you imagine! I just started watching you again after a little break and i feel just as inspired as ever! I've been losing some of my cooking spark and that is a strange thing when I'm still so young. I don't ever want to stop cooking and you always remind me of that. :)))

[@loufancelli1330]

I love to experiment with pizza so this will definitely be something I try. My dad used to make pizza a lot and he always did it "grandma style" in the pan. I typically make mine with a peel on to the stone, but seeing how this is a cross between focaccia and pizza I need to give this a go!

[@judee5370]

I love how you were sitting outside making pizza dough, it’s the authentic Frankie way. But seriously, thanks for this great recipe, it’s looks delicious! I’ve got to try this🍕🍕

[@msj.randel1496]

Love Frankies World making pizza! LOL looks yummy!!

[@damned_1]

I use me sheet pan for pizza too!! Thank you señorito 🥹🫶🏽

[@Dozbik]

Honestly, it feels like I've learnt more about pizza dough from this one video than in my entire life up until now. Thanks a lot, I will definitely try it out in the next days and won't skip the long waiting time anymore seeing that stunning result!

[@damaelegante1]

He is so interesting to watch! His humor- love it! So cool but funny.

[@Yesica1993]

Oh, man! I could eat this every day for the rest of my life and never get tired of it!

[@babyblossom7143]

I always love watching your videos and feeling more of a connection to my Italian background - my dad is Italian but was adopted so I didn't get to grow up with that culture. Your videos make up for it though ❤️

[@heavenlee1965]

You have a touch of Alton Brown man. So good!

[@christelize69]

I made this tonight for dinner after following your instructions exactly and patiently waiting for my dough baby to ferment for 2 days. OMG it was soooo delicious! I can't believe I made pizza that good! Crispy and bubbly and chewy perfection!

[@debC1953]

I'm so glad you mentioned your altitude. We are at 5200' here in northern Colorado. We've been here for 9 years and I am still learning how I have to cook differently than when I was in Indiana.

[@peterfriswell2875]

Your photographer friend made me laugh.....agony to ecstasy..... with the hot pizza. Good description.

[@JohnyScissors]

Ain't nothin like making dough in a field

[@brandonwhaley9017]

Oh, and I'm really loving grandma right now!!!!!!

[@brooklyn177609]

I love your energy and enthusiasm! I can’t wait to try this crust. Thanks for teaching me to cook Frankie.

[@yshemesh]

You are a breath of fresh air!

[@ruthkiser9693]

BEAUTIFUL field and BEAUTIFUL pizza!

[@winged_wheels]

Omg. This is definitely food porn. ...but such satisfaction can't be gleaned anywhere else.

[@kelleep535]

Is it important that we have our spatula in the dirt before mixing? Like natural yeast or something? 🤣🤣 Seriously, this looks delicious and I am 100% kidding. I love all things Frankie makes.

[@sarahm4820]

[@FLN62]

Amazing 👏 good dough does take time but it’s so worth it 🍕❤️🇮🇹

[@risenandreturning]

My Italian husband asked me to stop watching this as he sat across from me in the living room.... he said it was making him so hungry he was going to eat my phone! 😂

[@penniecormier8770]

I always thought you were outstanding in your field. 👍

[@gabrielcanales2901]

Great vid frankie! Im a big fan

[@lisatheaffiliatept]

Luuuuv Idaho! I had a chance to spend 3 weeks summer there in 2015 :)

[@jcools310]

Did he say he’s in Idaho??

[@Moriahkrause]

Yeah same

[@cocoacam0930]

Wow! That looks delicious. Will definitely give this a go.

[@IanWhizz]

You’re the best thing on KZbin! I’m obsessed with watching you’re vids since I stumbled across them the other day. I hope your channel goes from strength to strength.

[@Pt0wN973b0iI]

Get a black iron pizza pan, you can check eBay for used ones that will be pre-seasoned. The crust will come out even better!

That looks perfect!!!! Also, you are so handsome. 🤷🏻‍♀️❤️❤️❤️

[@hannahkistemaker756]

i swear this is all you need in life... this kind of pizza

[@ElizabethSoliday]

Thanks for posting this! My boy LOVES pizza but plain cheese frozen has been hard to find in the store. This would be a great opportunity to get him into the kitchen and get him make his own (with help!)

[@brandonwhaley9017]

First of all, thank you! Second of all, YES!!! Third of all, I feel bad for all the other foods that will be neglected because I am making this ALL THE TIME! I'm going to have to take up swimming again so I will not develop a pizza gut!

[@JulieStokes1970]

I have made this dough about 6 times and it is always a hit! Thank you!

[@tinad8561]

Does it freeze?

[@sirjohndoeofpa3292]

Dude, that was amazing!!! Thanks bruh

[@katsleggsful]

Okay, so I think you should come back to the East coast and do this again ... Ya know, so we can see if the dough rises the same here and stuff ... Lol! Glad you're back on YT doing your thing from anywhere Frankie! MUAH!!! 😘

[@superspeederbooster]

2:15 see you including some wild yeasts from that spatula hahah;)

Oh my! I can’t wait to make this.

[@carolinagalvez643]

420 I like that number

[@Pt0wN973b0iI]

Salt in contact with yeast kills the yeast bacteria. Also, I heard some people use distilled water instead of tap. Distilled water has no chlorine to kill the bacteria..

[@briannemorna4268]

I love the kitchen. Mine is also red and blue

Great! Now I want pizza lol. Looks yummy!

[@jaypermenter6289]

Hi Frankie. I saw a video of yours on how to make pasta putenessca. It was hilarious and the recipe was awesome. That was about a year ago and now I can’t find that recipe on KZbin again. Can you provide the link? Thanks! Jay

[@craigconway4093]

Awesome :)

Cant wait to make this for the fam

Going to have to try this...I have your bagel recipe in the fridge right now, going to bake them tomorrow, this will be the next one I try

[@RobertVincelli]

Frankie, that looks amazing! I live at altitude as well and I find all my baking is different than when I used to live at sea level. Any tips or adjustments you recommend? Thanks again for the great content 👌🇮🇹

[@kTot257]

Must have made the 2010 green man dough 300 times by now. Going to have to give the granny version a try.

[@FrankieCooks]

Love that you call it the “green dough man”

[@kTot257]

Frankie Celenza that suit leaves a lasting impression. Seriously tho, going to toss the dough in the fridge the second day and see how it goes.

[@classycassi20]

Aghh the childhood memories😋

[@amateurepicurean8168]

Yummmm. I haven't made homemade pizza in forever, but now I'm going to. Thanks for the inspiration. This recipe is similar to the one I use. I've had good luck keeping it in the fridge for up to a week. The color changes slightly but it's still tasty.

[@monizdm]

Frankie, what the hell are you doing in Idaho? You need to come back to the city that loves you.

[@Chris_Kwon_Do]

Did Frankie neither confirm nor deny he is down with the devils lettuce!! My guy!!

[@winged_wheels]

Plenty of hints as to which green he might prefer.

[@Chris_Kwon_Do]

@@winged_wheels in this video or others?

Mostly this one but there could be others. *shrugs*

[@marialuisabezerra8670]

Hey Frankie, loving all your videos! Could you show us a good tomato sauce for a pizza like that? Love from Portugal!

[@FrankieCooks]

As boring as it sounds. High quality San Marzanos, hand crushes till smooth with salt is all you need

[@stephaniejzhu3046]

frankie likes 420 eyyyyy

[@polish2x91]

I'm not going to measure it, I'm going to do it the Italian grandma method. Then he measures everything.

[@Janine.Najarian]

What do you think about shaping the dough on the pan itself?

[@Caleb-zz8sg]

I had no idea you were making KZbin videos on your own Chanel can’t wait to binge this shit

[@caroletsengouras7570]

I’m very new to ur channel and after one video, I’m totally addicted! You r awesome, very talented, and knowledgeable. I hope u stay safe and keep doing what ur doing. Omg! and u play Tennis, so awesome. Question can u also use bread flour instead of ap flour?

[@damaelegante1]

Why cover the dough with the towel? I never understood that? Also what did you put in the sauce?

[@BriNguyen]

I could hear the exhaustion in that 5 lol

[@shauyana8836]

Out of curiosity who records the videos?

[@rachelbilka832]

Would this work with gluten free flour?

[@cmaur811]

I have been using your 10 year old recipe- tried your tatemade one with sugar added. Its still rising. Do you feel this one is better?

[@alyssamcbride8857]

Hey Frankie! I was wondering what kind of cold bean salads I can make with a can of mixed beans? Mine has kidney, black and pinto beans. Thanks for the help!

[@shannonjoseph3164]

Guess ya gotta blaze it in the oven ya know?

[@lorirussell6679]

I may be crushing on you, Frankie Celenza!

[@srb1855]

Frank, the basil goes on the pizza only after it comes out of the oven...otherwise it burns to a crisp...

[@FrankieCooks]

Sandro Balestrino the napoletani would disagree. But I’m down for both ways

[@GroguSlayer69]

fit for a kid

[@meekbleek102]

[@april4244]

Frankie... how do you make your pizza sauce?

[@ricksolari9570]

Even if that much yeast is $5.00 today, it's a bargain. Where'd you get it?

[@shenlun]

So Frankie create a woodfired grandma pizza

[@Janine.Najarian]

AYYYYYYY

[@solopaty1020]

Omg you looked so young

[@hlegler]

Did you add baking soda to the tomatoes?

[@hlegler]

BTW, I just made the dough...now to wait 48 hours! I love how your crust turned out. Super dreamy!!

[@FrankieCooks]

@@hlegler no baking soda anywhere!

[@hlegler]

@@FrankieCooks It must have been salt that you added to the tomatoes. (P.S. Sometimes if canned tomatoes are too acidic, I add a pinch of baking soda to tame them.)
