Found a cheap deck oven and had pretty low expectations, but it said it went to 400°C (true!) and it was large enough for a couple 12×14” steels. I got them to 290°C before baking for about 6 minutes. I guess the idea is to cook one at a time so that the other steel can recover.

I used a 100% poolish at 62% hydration, all trumps flour. It’s kind of a New York-Neapolitan hybrid. Best-tasting crust I’ve ever made.

    That looks really damn good. I worked in a pizza shop with deck ovens for 10 years and always loved the way they cook. For the price that’s crazy.

    Nice. I also appreciate the attempt at scaling to tell how big it is, but the gold standard is to use a banana. People vary too much in size to get a good read. A banana though, pretty standard sizes.
