Announcing a new "Mobile Wood Fired Catering Experience"
Flirting With FireSo I have Really done this, its official, and buckle your seat belts it is Taking off !! I grabbed the Name from Pizza Police when someone else was looking for a mobile name and they did not take it. Something about Fire and flirting that allways interested me
After hanging around here for 6+ years and working with my home WFO I have developed a passion for producing, serving and eating
Neapolitan pizza. My logo is "Bringing Pizza to the People" I know I have heard it and its probably around here somewhere? but who cares. I also use "We're Fired" on my card.
I do not posses the intimate knowledge of many of the members here, and the countless new members like PizzaNeapoletana, nor do I claim to be any kind of Master but I know based on the reviews the product is definitely edible
After doing 3-4 paid demos for my friend who is selling those barrel ovens and people begging for cards and More pizza, and pushing me to go for it. I decided to give it a go. I am not giving up my Day Job ! I have paid for the equipment and that allows me to do what I want when I want. Its meant to be a small business, focused on private catering and special events. I do not want to do huge 2000 people festivals although the money would be nice its just too much work! After doing it for a month now I realize How much work it is just to do a 40 person Party, and I do not want to sacrifice quality for $$ profit (I know yet) No premade skins, par bales or rolling pins .... Like a Mini PF Taylor I am doing it all myself for now ( up to 25 no problem) and with 1 helper if needed.
As other mobile operators have mentioned its really a lot of fun ! Everybody is allways in the party mood and So many questions, and so much information to share. Fire Brings Friends together! Its great to hear in the background "oh my god this is soo good!" or " Hey you gotta try this one" or like most other woodies here "this is the best pizza I have ever had" Honestly this is why I am doing it. I love it! so why not get paid!
Anyway I will keep my posts on events and info here if OK with the moderators, and I thank everybody for the info thy have shared over the years. It Works! This is such a great Place.
I researched mobile ovens for months and came up with a local builder Peter de Jong at Fired Up Kitchens and he built an an oven that I can get into back yards, pool parties, but really kicks !@#$%# when you crank it up! The oven has 40" hearth room and plenty for 3 if need be. I dream of a 48" hearth someday but I really like what I have for now.
Here the pics I have been taking. more to follow as we begin the journey!
