Home made pizza

Granddaddy's Favorite... Pepperoni for the kids, a more complex pie for Grandmommy and me.

That looks kick ass.
 
I did the pepperoni first: I'm heat soaking the pizza stone at 550 degrees for 30 mins. I didn't turn the oven up to broil before putting the pepperoni in, so the bottom came out a little soft. Here's the procedure that worked well: Soak the stone at 550 degrees for a half-hour. Then up it to broil for five minutes or so to get the stone as hot as possible. Bake the pizza on the stone for 5 mins, then turn up to broil again for 3. That's the procedure I used on the second pie and it worked wonderfullly - nice, firm, crisp base and toppings done perfectly.

What's really interesting is all the different methods of getting to the finished pie. Many ways to skin a cat!

The grandkids didn't mind the bit of doughiness in the pepperoni pie, and grandmommy and I got a really nicely baked one.

Pizza looks great! Grandkids are pizza disposal units, they aren't what you'd call connoisseurs. Wife and I prefer a more crispy bottom.

I think that no matter how you go about it, skinning cats is generally frowned upon.
