Please wait...
I've decided to start smoking.
Specifically, my family got me a Pit Boss 1150 pellet smoker for my birthday.
This thing is freaking massive. Looks like we're having barbecue this weekend.
...and yet you still have not invited all of us over for cheese steak sandwiches as you promised you would several years ago.
Wed Jun 02 2021 14:31:58 EDT from Nurb432Tonight's attempt: Pizza using semolina flour instead of regular bleached white.
That sounds better than what I had attempted: Pizza using cauliflower blenderized and mixed with egg beaters to hold it together like "crust".
The final step in the recipe should have said "scrape it right into the trash".
Make that tomorrow or Friday. I got home later than planned not going start a batch of dough at almost 8PM when i have to get up at 5AM. Going to make the dough in the morning and let it sit a while ( perhaps overnight instead of same day ) since i screwed up today.
Normally i take it right out of the mixer as i want it 'now', but i hear its better to let it sit in the fridge a few hours. or days.
Wait. how did this thread about experimental pizza tonight end up here, i thought i was in the food room.

You really have to get all the moisture out of cauliflower to do anything with it. I forget what I attempted with cauliflower, it didn't turn out well.
Anything with it would turn out poor.. nasty tasting stuff :)

Wed Jun 02 2021 12:25:59 PM EDT from IGnatius T FoobarLunch is at 12:30pm today (US Eastern time). I will make a philly cheese steak sandwich for anyone who comes.
Well at least you finally made good on your original offer. You weaseled out of it, but you made good on your offer. Very Trumpish.
As for the cauliflower, here's a good way to eat it: cook it (broiled or steamed), add butter and salt if you like, and then put it in your mouth.
That's how you eat it. Don't try to turn it into dough. Ugh.
The other day my oven flipped out at ~400 degrees. ( its a gas unit ) Normally we cook things at 350 but wanted to run it at 400. The temp senor freaked out and shut it down about 20 mins later ( sensor.. like my damned fridge that broke @9months... and ironically the same brand ). Tho at least this gave an error code.
But tried it at 350 later and it works. So i guess we now have a limit, unless i replace the sensor or entire thing. Its old, so getting a new one isn't out of the question.
I like my cast iron round griddle better than my pizza stone. I make the pizza right on the grill, don't have to worry about sliding it on to the stone.
Yes, I have made pizza on the grill.
Cauliflower dough is terrible compared to real dough - but it is better than no pizza if you're on a low carb diet.
I used to have a friend that used to say bad sex is like bad pizza - still better than none at all.
No, i have had pizza so bad, none really was better. :)
I didnt hold out more than about 6 hours of the dough in the fridge. I caved. Did what i would consider thin crust. Used the spring pan instead of a flat one so a bit of dough sticking up form the edges.
Didn't turn out bad. it is different using Semolina flour. Cant say its 'better' but its not 'worse'. Just different. It is firmer.

I suppose I've never had either, by surprise, while in prison - so I can think of at least one case where none might be better...
