So much hate in the comments😢. Keep going bro...dnt mind the haters. They just jealous.....you living the life that they want to live.🇿🇦🇿🇦

Proof your yeast next time before adding it to your flour and use King Arthur bread flour. Last one I made was an upside down pizza, grease your skillet, add your meat and vegetables, add the cheese, add the sauce, stretch the dough over the top and bake. When the crust is golden brown it’s done, take it out, let set 10min then flip the skillet upside down on your cutting board and it’ll slide right out.

[@mariannlyda9509]

What?? No beer with your pizza???

Love your videos. Keep up the good vids. We started watching for the camping and now we watch for dinner! Thanks for letting us live vicariously thru your journey! BillsMom

Great job Chef Jonathan👋 Love the way you measure everything. Now that I'm hungry for Pizza, have to go. Travel on and really enjoy your adventures.

Mmm looked great. My mom makes homemade pizza 🍕 with her sourdough bread leftover starter discard. We use big cast iron like you and oil it so it comes out like a pizza hut or BJs "pan" pizza 🤤 hope your issues arent too serious. Take care 🤙

[@LiusLine]

Seeing you make pizza in your van in the middle of a forest in winter looks so cozy and nice. It really inspires me, and I think I might try it too. The winter here in the Northwest is always so wet and dark; something warm like this could make my days better. Thank you so much for sharing your day with us!❤

[@georgiaval1]

Jonathan I appreciate your content I.e., your adventures, cooking, fantastic nature shots and everything about your channel. I especially appreciated the hard work you put into the other camper. You worked so very hard, but knew it’s limits. Forget the negativity and keep on being you my friend.

[@janisg7409]

❤ the pizza making, beautiful scenery and the music!

[@DznyNrd]

You have inspired my husband and I! We are taking our truck camper out next weekend and we will be making pizza in our cast iron skillet!!!! Love your channel!!!

[@ryancook8917]

Every video you say you were gonna do something but you couldn't because something came up or you couldn't do it. Don't tell us! Talk less, just create the content when you can and we will enjoy it. Look back at your earlier videos, you just got it done and it was great.

Nice work on the pizza Johnathan. I may try this on my indoor oven while i'm recuperating. Drat, i'm out of comission but love being able to watch all you youtubers. Thank God for this channel. I t has seen me thru a long protracted illness. I love your show and my wife thinks your very cute. TeeHee. We're in our mid 70's so i don't think i have anything to worry about. Otherwise she might be looking for a truck camper doer!!! Thanks for a great show.

When you said from scratch, you meant it! Hope whatever the “things” were are now ok. And, that’s a great looking pizza!

[@marcl5048]

Look out Dominos; Jonathan is in town!

[@genespell4340]

You can always toss a little more cheese on top and put it back in the oven for a minute. The residual heat should melt it tom perfection.

[@WHavriloRT]

Bro I wanted to hear the crunch. Turn down the music.

[@a.leehilliard4716]

Tips - 1/2 the amount of yeast, one tab only of paste, no need to oil the top of your crust before toppings unless you want toppings to slide off.

[@williamthawley9251]

Jon, my wife uses nan bread to make pizza at home.

[@randyrowett7998]

What a great way to get out into the fresh air, and make a great pizza, takeaway the stress of the week. Great video Jonathan. A great camper also. Enjoy.

[@michelle14749]

The pizza looks good. I really like your truck camper, looks so comfy.

We had a very mild winter here in Michigan as well. I heard that the groundhog didn't see his shadow this year so spring is suppose to be coming early!!!! Love the videos!!!!💜💜💜

[@rtyria]

Howdy neighbor! Winter this year has been just a slightly colder and drier version of winters we had growing up in New Jersey. It's nuts.

[@ellengoodman1297]

No real snow here in New Hampshire either. Just endless gray days! You're such a good dude, always enjoy your videos and your gentle spirit 🙂

[@cooltrkin]

Sprinkle your pan with corn meal it will keep from sticking.

[@marviesadventures8638]

I live in a motorhome and use a propane stovetop and oven. I have been struggling with the oven temp not being accurate. I bought a thermometer and its just wonky, how does your oven fare with this?

[@youngblood2]

To get your RV oven to work like home, buy a rectangular pizza stone, put it on the bottom rack, and leave it in there at all times. The pizza stone soaks up the heat, and illuminates hot and cold spots. You can thank me later.

[@marviesadventures8638]

@@youngblood2 awesome thanks 👍

[@LiusLine]

Hey there! Last night, we went razor clamming on the Ocean shore, WA. The weather was stunning, and we scored some decent clams. However, when we cooked them for dinner, they turned out awful! I was thinking, could you create a video of our clamming adventure but with a better outcome? Just a funny idea! 😅

[@Rob_430]

Nice pizza! When using cast iron, it’s better to preheat a little before the oven as it takes too long for the pan to heat up. The crust doesn’t cook well. You can start it stove top. Beautiful country up there. I was at Ft Lewis, on my way to Japan and Korea. It was November, cloudy, damp and chilly and I had a cold.

[@glendapolich7549]

Ok. So I'll be making pizza today!......but I won't be going to the forest to make it ......because I don't have a camper to cook in. 😄😄😄😄

[@simonagree4070]

The dough-rising pot was too big for the dough ball; you need a smaller bowl so the dough can climb the sides and air up a bit. What's the weirdest thing you've ever put on a pizza? For me, it was canned fruit cocktail, with chicken and cheese. No tomato sauce. It was surprisingly good.

[@terryl.cooper]

He ate all of it but two pieces and the taste made his eyes roll into the back of his head. I'm sure it was fine. @@

[@simonagree4070]

I'm sure it was "fine". I'd eat it, and enjoy it no doubt. Just adding my two cents worth of 40 years experience handling yeast-rising doughs.

[@isdits]

Looks good man, just missing a few more pepperoni.

[@coleengoodell7523]

Pizza looks amazing and of course my OCD was fed with your cleaning and organization skills. Hope everything is working out. Take care and God bless.

[@domalash]

if you ever want the nice round domino edge just put 3 middle fingers together on each hand next to each other so you have 6 fingers together in an arch.. pull the top edge of the pizza in an arc down and kinda tuck it in to bottom inner edge.. move fingers to next section and repeat until you go all the way around.. the trick is you do this when it's still a ball or a somewhat flat ball.. so you end up with something that looks like a bowler hat with a round lip.. then slap the inner section slowly until it's flat.. just go slow until the middle fits your hand easy... so you don't mess up the edges.. once you have room for your hands it's really easy to slap back and forth.. wonder if there's a video on it.. probably

[@ronaldwarren5220]

Yum

[@geri9839]

Hello Johnathan enjoyed your video. Home made camping Pizza look delicious .

[@rtyria]

Once I was one pizza shy of what I needed for supper for everyone, so while the remaining store bought pizza was baking in the oven I whipped up homemade tortillas and used that for my thin crust pizza. Instead of dividing my dough into 8, I divided it into four. Rolled each of the four out to the size I needed and then stacked them on top of each other. Pricked it all over with a fork, basted it with some Italian seasoned tomato paste and the usual toppings. By the time the store bought stuff was done it was ready to go in. It was surprisingly fantastic.

[@JonathanYentch]

Yeah the hot water will get ya! Thanks for the support 😄

[@simonagree4070]

If you put your pinkie in it and it feels hot, it's too warm. I use a programmable electric kettle, but that's not necessarily an option in a camper.

[@alvinmousseau1100]

Great video

[@georgemacdonald8899]

Nice pizza! Couple of other things to try: Mixing in different flour(whole wheat, bread flour, different grains...), adding mixed Italian herbs to dough(I put them in some hot water for a bit and use when cool enough), adding some finely chopped green/red pepper to dough, add grated cheese to dough. Other things for toppings, I like red onion, cheddar cheese plus the usual mixes. Breakfast pizza is an idea I have not tried yet...
