Like riding a bike...or if you don't use it you lose it?

It's been over one year and maybe two since I've used my 2stone. Last night  decided to get back in the saddle and whip up a 12hr room temp dough.

Oh the fail.  Only had KABF. Turned one into a calzone. Used clogged propane tank and couldn't get the 2stone past 625.

Result=not my best. Still was a nice change from the pan pizzas I've been making. Hopefully it won't be so long until the next time.

Even your "crashed an burned" can't be THAT bad Jeff.....no pics dude? 

[jeff v]

Thanks for the high hopes. Only one pic, not great quality.

I would do the "sleep walking back again" to get a hit of that pie.....the grass isn't always greener on the other side....
nice job man...

Not bad - certainly not a FAIL.  What didn't you like?

Problems were mostly shaping and loading the pizza, but by the 5th one it was coming back. I planned on baking around 750 so a 58% hydration dough at 600-625 dried out a bit. Pizzas were still good, it was more the other things that were frustrating. And my 4yo refused to eat for some reason.

Thanks. I was out of practice for sure.

Don't take it personally, buddy.  Finicky eaters are hard to cook for.  Sometimes you just gotta shrug it off.  Make the food you like.  They can have peanut butter. F 'em.
