Mission
Make wood‑, gas‑, and pellet‑fired pizza simple, safe, and fun at home—so anyone can serve great pies in the backyard without guesswork.

Who We Are
We’re a small outdoor‑cooking team that has worked in different roles within the StrongMocha News Group—editorial, testing, photography, and audience operations. We bring newsroom discipline to dough science, oven technique, and patio safety.

How We Help Readers

  • Break down dough, fermentation, and hydration in plain English.
  • Explain oven setup (stone vs. steel, flame management, deck protection) so you avoid warping, scorching, and underbaking.
  • Provide step‑by‑step launch and turning technique to reduce failures.
  • Offer safety basics for propane, open flame, and placement clearances.
  • Give party‑flow and batching tips so hosting feels easy, not chaotic.

What We Publish

  • Dough & fermentation fundamentals for same‑day and cold‑ferment workflows.
  • Fuel choices and heat management: gas, wood, and pellet.
  • Tools & techniques: peels, IR thermometers, screens, deck protection.
  • Troubleshooting: soggy bottoms, burnt toppings, blister control.
  • Seasonal hosting playbooks: wind, rain, and winter pizza nights.

How We Work

  • We test outdoors like our readers do—tracking stone temps, preheat times, and launch success rates.
  • We verify techniques against manufacturer manuals and food‑safety guidance.
  • If you buy through our links, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you; recommendations remain independent.
  • We update articles as ovens, fuels, and accessories evolve.

Tools & Resources

  • Dough Hydration Calculator (style, flour, temp).
  • Preheat & Stone‑Recovery Timer.
  • Party Prep Checklist and Make‑Ahead Timeline.
