    I don’t prebake the dough. Roll it out, add toppings, and to the egg. Use enough corn meal so it doesn't stick. Is it best to roll it out room temp or out of the fridge. My wife and I disagree on this - each with no data - just what we think. I say room temp. All the pizza guys I’ve seen in real life and in movies look like they’re slinging RT dough.
    How long should you prebake? Enough to dry it out or give it a slight crust?
    We get our dough from a local deli and found out today they don’t make. The lady I talked to didn’t know off the top of her head where they got it.

    And since this is my first post today...

    May the 4th be with you!

    ^May the Fourth be with you.

    And, thanks for the info.

    I used to prebake me routinely. But since switching to Wewalka thin crust or Bistro style pizza, I only do it if (a) it's a dessert style pizza with something like a yogurt base, or (b) if I think the toppings might make the raw dough too soggy before it is baked.

    I was wondering about the BGE, since it cooks at a much higher temp than my oven (425 F is what I do pizza in the oven) if the dough would blister before the pizza is otherwise fine.

    The dough might burn some if too hot. Working on variables to limit it.

    Keep it simple. Good French butter, salt, Herbes de Provence. Sautee. Finish with a little cream.

    Edit - since I'm back seat driving on your dinner, serve those awesome shrooms with veal scallopini.

    They are too mild for veal, they have a slight nutmeg flavor to them, Chicken with some fresh fava beans in brown butter, throw the mushrooms in last so they just get warm not cook.

    I like chanterelles with veal so says the wife LOL

    Chicken, beans - great choices.

    Place in New Orleans called Bayona does a goat cheese and mushroom croton appetizer. Yum. Ate there years ago and I can still recall it. One of the best things I ever ate.

    That looks good. Would look better with a solo of vanilla ice cream in it. White bread, cinnamon, sugar, pop in the toaster?!?

    Toaster? You'd make a hell of a mess with all that butter, sugar and cinnamon.

    Do it in the over at 335 for 8-10 minutes and then broil another couple minutes (most of the time), really depends on how done it is. I just remembered I have cinnamon butter from Texas Roadhouse. I'm using that next time.

    My mom used to make this for me many many weekend mornings.

    I make garlic bread in the toaster, but your point is a good one, ya gotta go light on the butter, or you'll have a mess. Or worse, a fire.

    Had salmon burgers (Costco brand) last night with steamed broccoli. A healthy precursor to tonight's Philly cheesesteaks (if I can find the various components).

    Philly cheesesteak sammiches!

    Shaved beef. It was carpaccio thin, but it'll do.

    Sweating onions - sweet and red - and an orange bell.

    Final product. Whiz wit ( onions) and peppers. Wife put the kibosh on Cheez Whiz, so that's Velveeta slices on top.

    Philly cheesesteak? I approve!

    Bolillo was OK. A baguette or Italian bread would have been better. Likewise, if the steak was a bit thicker, that would have helped.

    First time for salmon on the egg. Marinade was really good. I didn’t want to over cook it so took a guess when they were done and they turned out slightly undercooked. The different sizes didn’t help.

    I try a variety of lump and never fully burn it all, so I add some each time. Anyway, it got low and when mixing it around I found these concrete like chunks. They’re about the size of quarters. I’ll pay more attention when adding from now on. Sure this junk will be really hard to spot all caked in carbon dust.

    I'm waiting for my dad to email me pictures of the BBQ contest over last weekend. I'm back to salads since Monday. Dieting sucks. I'm craving a beef taco pizza. Saw a new pizza chain near my house. I googled their menu. They have a beef taco pizza on their menu. Might give them a try tonight.
