I seen you went a pizza shop and he made his dough that day. Can you make a dough that is good and usable that day? Everything I see is wait three days before using the dough. I want to try pop up in the Philippines but I don't have a cooler or anything to chill the dough for three days.

Great video Charlie. Coming from someone who works in kitchens and has run a pizza shop the scale you speak of doesn't necessarily improve your margins. Labor and cogs should be kept below or at 55% and the rest of your overhead will eat into any residual cash flow so it ends up being relative. Professionally my advice would be when you're ready to open a brick and mortar find a turnkey operation or an owner willing to finance the sale. Then when you set up with a broadliner (SYSCO, GFS etc) do plenty of product research to find the best balance of quality vs cost. You will inevitably need to determine what you're willing to compromise on in order to appeal to the MOST customers on average not the ones willing to spend the most. And again keep in mind labor will be your largest expense after all that. Hope that helps and happy to chat with you if you ever want to spit ball. Love the passion! #pizzagang

Charlie, Have you considered scaling by pre-making uncooked pizzas and selling them uncooked "Papa Murphy" style? No boxes, just a sheet of round cardboard and shrink wrapped fully pre-cook topped. I'd do a solid instruction sheet, with a QR code linking them to your Facebook page, where they can access a full "Home cook" video on KZbin, here you can address the post-cook toppings and have multiple videos for different equipment. They can buy a slice, and take home a pizza to cook later. Give it a think. You might be able to turn a $5/6 sale into a $25 sale without the bottleneck of tying up your oven. This will also increase your interactions, and customer participation. Once they have followed you to learn to cook a pizza you made them, they are more bought into you, the process and the brand. You can alert them to events, and specials.

@CharlieAndersonCooking

Yeah I'm not sure how places justify such high prices. Even the best slice shops in NYC only charge $3-5 for a plain slice, and their expenses are a lot higher than any other city, so it's kind of crazy the prices some of these places charge. Part of my mission when I open a brick and mortar is to bring high quality pizza at a reasonable price.

Usually these pop-ups are sort of the 'sink or swim' phase of pursuing an independent shop. Of course there's no way to just do it for the money; there isn't any. The equipment, time, food cost, breakage and repair, unexpected expenses/losses, yada yada will eventually put a pop-up out of business. The point is to decide if you love it enough to keep going and to see if your product is capable of serving a larger customer base, e.g. opening a full shop. But the adventure isn't over then. You have business loans, massive taxes, and everything else that goes with starting a small business in a competitive field. But if you love it, you can endure that first 5 years of struggle before things start to smooth out. Appreciate the video, would love to try your pizza sometime.

As someone who built a brick pizza oven in my back yard and now host monthly neighborhood pizza parties, I can tell you have the same passion of creating something that others enjoy. Even though it's a lot of work to churn out 20-40 pizzas, being able to share your passion with people and have them enjoy it is amazing. The topic of opening a pop up/restaurant is always brought up whenever I make pizzas but I'm always afraid the monetary/business side of things would ruin the enjoyment for me. As a fellow pizza nerd wish you best in your adventures!

Hi Charlie, Charlie here, I have been working on developing my pizza technique here and there over the last 10 years. I only finally invested in a stone, because I was never happy with any of the pizzas I was able to create. It has improved them quite a bit, but next I'll be getting a pizza steel just to maximize what a 550F home oven can do. I'm still figuring out what I want to do for my dough, tuning my sauce, finding good mozzarella, and we'll see. I plan to be making pizzas all through the fall/winter and probably into the spring, until it gets warm out again. Pizza is my cool weather jam! It will be fun to be able to make some b0mb pies. Anyway, thanks for sharing your experience and journey for us :]

It's definitely able to keep up with multiple pizzas! After I baked about 3-4 pizzas in a row, I might have to wait like 2-3 minutes for it to recover but at that point, it's was basically good as new. I even found that if I didn't have a pizza in there for 5 or more minutes, it would get hot enough to burn the bottom of the next pizza. So I didn't even have the bottom burner at max heat for most of the night.

I came across your channel recently, I have been making homemade pizzas again. I live in Shaker Heights and I see you will be at Bookhouse on Oct. 11th, that's my birthday, so I need to come and have some pizza and beers that night. I have a question for you. I made 3 pizzas last night using my baking steel and did not get that nice spotted crust I have in the past. I preheated my oven to 550 for 90 minutes. My infrared red thermometer said the steel was 565, I ended up cooking the pizzas for 8-10 minutes and still did not get that desirable crust. Dough hydration was 65%. Any thoughts as to why? Is that a fermentation issue? Anyway, I really enjoy your channel, as I have the homemade pizza bug again. PS, one of the three pizzas I made was your white sauce pizza recipe, it was our favorite pizza last night. Thanks again!

But hmm, yeah there could be a lot of factors to it but my first guess is that it was either over-or under fermented. That can often cause the dough not to brown properly

So you need an employee for 7 hours and you need to at least double pizza sales to 50 x $25/p/16inch =1250 -$600 over head making you $650 and if you can 3 day pop up your cost come down . Like thurdays friday saturday. And if you can bump up pizza to 75 with top quality you would really have it dialed in. That might just be double oven or larger oven .

Whoa, it's a lot of work, but the pizza looks great! Might want to consult with the Pizza Czar(Anthony Falco) when you go brick and mortar...

You rock! Does your new oven still need a steel? I’m gonna guess not! I wonder if the screen method could be used in a regular oven with a steel.. always sucks to mess a pizza up when making for friends

Yeah this one definitely doesn't need a steel! That would likely be overkill and just cause the pizzas to burn. I have tried the screen method at home with a steel, and unfortunately it doesn't seem to work as well. I find the pizza often sticks to the screen, no matter how well seasoned it is, because a home oven doesn't get quite hot enough

What software/app do you use for the pre-ordering? And what do you use for the payment processing?
@CharlieAndersonCooking
@CharlieAndersonCooking 3 ай бұрын
I use square for both! I have a mobile square reader I use for taking orders at the events, and it has a receipt / ticket printer built-in which is nice

Ive been casually practicing with an outdoor charcoal pizza grill for about a year. My goal is to emulate the New Haven style. Man it's tricky. It takes finesse and I think I finally got the dough right with the gluten built up without adding any(gluten). Now I just gotta work on the shape and getting it on and off the peel. For now, I'm just constructing the pizzas on the peel. Practice Practice Practice!

Where’s that “good pizza” hat from? I’m always hunting for good, crushable black hats haha. I dig the good pizza hat!

Haha I got those custom made for my pop up! If you're local to Cleveland, you could pick one up at one of my events but I don't currently have them available online. Maybe at some point though!

@@CharlieAndersonCooking never been to Ohio myself. I’m a Chicahhhhgo-LAND Native. Looks like you’ve got some good stuff over there! Maybe when the wife and I finally make our drive towards Pennsylvania we missed a couple years back haha Thanks for the recipes and emails by the way! Haven’t gotten to yours yet. I’m new to the Pizza community and was lacking ingredients for your Detroit style. The information you provide is great for a new dough maker! I intend on your Detroit style and New York Style to be my next homemade ZA’s!

I looked at that oven and ruled it out for the voltage requirements. How do you deal with that at the brewery? Did they run 220 just for you or have it already? Seems like the limiting factor if trying to go on the road

Very impressive labor of love!!! (... especially considering you are not making any money at all, you are losing LOTS of money... never even heard of a "pop-up.") But, it will pay off once you get financing to open a real pizzeria.

That's awesome, pizza looks great, I started launching pizzas in my roccbox on wire mesh trays also and just pull them out when it sets and I don't have to cool down all night just to clean it 😭😂
Is this ingredient the secret to perfect pizza dough?
