The All New QubeStove 16.5” Rotating Pizza Stone Oven / 3rd Attempt at Pizza! Success or Fail?

[@michaelmollica7178]

The key is to get the stone to 850-925 drop in the pizza and drop the flame down to half bottom will be brown the top will be just right in 2-2 1/2 min. ...get the stone up to 900.. then drop the flame down some

I love your videos on the QubeStove, thank you. A friend of mine has another brand of 16” pizza oven. He learned to fully preheat the oven to over 900 degrees and hold it at 900 until the stone is really hot. Turn down the flame as low as possible and launch the pizza, check it every 15 seconds, it turns out perfect. The same thing may work on the QubeStove 16.5.

Hey Tom - my trick is to use long metal tongs to keep checking the crust underside without picking it up. They're also handy for stray pepperoni:) Once the crust is perfect, I then hold the pie up an inch off the stone using the peel for 15-20 seconds, which finishes the top . That's with a stone temp of 750 with a front exhaust stack pellet oven. Cheers!

Are you VITO IACOPELLI ?

Thanks for watching!

Looks great Tom. They are all a learning curve. I mentioned in another video about the homemade dough… using Caputo 00 will help. But I also like to make life easier. So, if you have a GFS (Gordon foodservice store) near you then buy their frozen pizza dough balls. They have two sizes. 16 and 10 oz. The 10oz are perfect for 12 inch thin crust pizzas. They have gone up in price but they are perfect everytime and are made in NY… so you get that real NYC pizza flavor. Cheers! And Thanks for all the great videos.

Thanks for Watching Phillip! I do have one of those nearby, I’ll be checking it out! Thanks for the info!

[@thegalleryBBQ]

Awesome Job Tom. Once you master it the skys the limit!!

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Tommy! Gotta master it first…

[@curtisrogers4190]

Hey Tom, I'm on the same learning curve as you. I have the Ooni wood and gas combination pizza oven and I have cooked 5 pizzas and have not got it right yet. I have figured out that you have to be light handed with sauce and toppings and let the stone get really hot before launching a pizza. I have been fighting the fire with lump and wood. I think when I switch over to gas it will be a little smoother. Good luck and don't give up on it.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Curtis! Good to know!

[@jaybooth4815]

Half the fun is the learning curve Tom. The other half is eating the pizzas in that process! Yeah that little pepperoni was driving me nuts too! I’m enjoying the ride Tom! Cheers!

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching Jay!

Hey Tom...Wher edid you get the table the oven in on...Looks like the right size..Just ordered my 16.5"

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching Ron! It’s a Weber table, not made anymore. Congrats on the new pizza cooker

[@davidhelsing545]

Hi Tom, have you ever used lava rock or ceramic briquettes on a gas grill? What do you recommend?

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching! I have not used either

[@chrishonerkamp5979]

Great video! I've thought long and hard about these pizza oven and I think I'll stay with my 980 for pizza. I'm probably going to get the auto kimato for my open flame and sear cooks. Thanks for another great video...

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Chris!

[@WeberEnthusiast]

Nice demo Tom , hope this comes out nice 👍👍

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

As do I! Thanks for Watching!

[@jakehoward5416]

It's a learning curve from what I have watched. Got me a $170 Amazon prime day pizza oven only used once but like it. So far

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Jake!

[@lisamenet1450]

Hi. Which one is it?

[@thomasihle2279]

Why not just use an oven like the Breville Smart Oven set to 475 degrees with the preheated 13” Breville pizza stone on the rack? Works perfectly for me and I do not have to go outside. In about 6 minutes the pizza is ready, giving me time to get everything else together. So much simpler!

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching Thomas! Appreciate the feedback

[@WeberEnthusiast]

Did you know Weber have released new qware . Just bought some more 👍👍

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching! Still trying to dial it in

[@randomactsofcooking]

Getting close Tom, but for me I'm done with these top heat pizza ovens. I'm the only one in our house that eats pizza and to have to wait an hour to get the stone hot isn't going to work for me. If the Blackstone Pizza Oven makes a comeback I'm in for that one and sell the others.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching Mike! The new Blackstone is due out this year yet, can’t wait!

[@paulroueche7003]

Keep at it. You will get it just right.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Paul! Appreciate the support

[@BBQPITDOG]

It looks good to me when you were tasting it Tom. Once you hit the sweet spot....it'll be game on!

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Rob! You are correct!

[@BillyJ10]

👍

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching William!

[@TheTrueAdonis1]

Walmart Expert Grill Pizza Oven at 99 dollars is still a BETTER deal and does the job. The Rotating Base is not necessary and I bet will be a piece that fails. I can see it breaking very easily....

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching! Time will tell….

[@gflowers_]

Practice makes perfect Nice try Tom!

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Greg!

[@francescocampisano2226]

Tom; you put too much toppings on. You need to use less sauce.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching! Ok

[@leestadnyk5573]

not affordable from what I saw the 12 inch version is 450$

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for Watching Lee! Appreciate the feedback

[@zkore20]

I think he throw this one never make a new video of this definitely the product is not good..

[@pizzaguyaz]

Wanted to like this, but I'm out. Watched 5-6 videos on this and haven't seen a decent pizza yet. It's not just you.

[@TomHorsmanAmateurBBQ]

Thanks for watching!

Please keep your hand out of the shot. So distracting.
