FOOD THREAD VOL. GRUB LIFE

I need practice on that pizza.

Way too much crust/bread for the Cast Iron. I will have to thin it out next time. Maybe reduce it to 10 oz, or prepare it in a longer pan or something. Dough at room temp is way easier to manipulate

I need a thicker sauce as well.

Took pics but they aren't on my phone.

Will try again this week.

While eating it, I was thinking of things to do next time. I was pissed but I know it was the first time I made it.

We use 22oz of dough for an 18in pizza at my job. 18 is huge too..Maybe you need to use less dough but also stretch it out more?

making dough and then pizza from scratch is harder than you’d think Def takes practice

I bought the premade Doughs from The Trader Joes.

I also used my hand to form it. Should I have used a Rolling Pin.

Any suggestions on your process with the Ledo style pizza you made a few months ago?

Nah rolling pin isn’t necessary
first step is room temp dough
You have to pound it to a rough shape and then stretch that shape

I just wrote a whole step by step but this guy explains it good. You don’t need to throw it tho that’s for show/when you have experience. Just keep doing the stretching technique

Anybody ever tried biltong? Macros are looking on point but I’m not sure about how it’ll taste

 

[nawghtyhare]

Capitol. I'll definitely be back so I'll go to Market and 13th as well. I got the oxtail too. It was thin and tail end sections but they gave 6 pieces. Are their BBQ any good?

It's okay. Used to grab some at my butcher once in a while, but he switched the recipe and the new stuff is too moist for my liking. It was also pretty pricey, so when I feel the urge, I just marinate a flank steak, cut it in strips and put it on low heat in the oven for 5-6 hours. Is it certified biltong? Nope. Is it good enough good enough for me? Yup.

Man I wish New York had better taco spots.

There gotta be good ones in NYC by now, though I know it wasn't that good when I left early 2000s. Matter fact did a yelp search for birria tacos, #1-4 look good as hell.

Yeah it’s gonna take a while to get it how you like it. Maybe 3 tries. Even when I was first making it I was thinking on how to improve it. Normal when tryna perfect a new dish

If you’re set on cooking it in a cast iron, perhaps half the dough because it should puff up and expand a bit

As for the tomato sauce, some tomato paste will thicken it up quite nicely. Or you can start off the sauce using tomato paste and thin in out as a way to control how thick you want it.

jrp44 what brand sausage patties?
DCAllAfrican Trader Joe's pre-made pizza dough, you can do way better. I've bought it once (time constraint) and it wasn't great.

I dusted it with cornMeal and salted it before adding my ingredients to it.

Explain to me what isn't good about it.

Please talk to me like I am 13 and have zero idea about this world, because I DON'T.

Phase 2 happened in NYC today. So for dinner we went to Hair of the Dog and thats what I got.
Double patty, american cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato. The sauce was fantastic on the burger. Idk if it was just a spicy mayo or a spicy thousand island, but it was damn good.
Washed it down with a coors light.

Just rolled out the store dough with my hands. Didn't really do anything "special".

There are definitely some folks in here that can probably provide better knowledges.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Damn those look good.
