Cheesesteak Calzone16 viewsOnce you know how to make perfect pizza crust, you can take classic sandwiches and turn them into calzones. I've had Philly cheesesteaks. Guess what? A cheesesteak CALZONE is better.

Slicing the Pig27 viewsNote the desperation in that lady's eyes. These pigs make people crazy.
Cubans break off pieces of the crispy skin and pass them around like candy.

Smoke Box Preparing for Test23 viewsThis is what it looks like inside. I welded three tabs of steel inside to hold up the mesh. There's a smaller piece of mesh in the bottom to keep charcoal up off the steel.
And no, the mesh doesn't collapse when it gets hot.
Cutting the mesh with a grinder was no fun. Use a plasma cutter.

Used Butter to Fix Grocery Store Shredded Cheese11 viewsI had a bag of Sargento low-moisture part-skim mozzarella, and I NEEDED a pizza, but I knew the cheese wasn't that great. It burns and tastes like vinyl. I added 3 tablespoons of butter to 12 ounces of cheese (by weight), and I worked a miracle. There was very little burning, and not much oiling off.Jul 17, 2008
