Â*So I've got this dough in the freezer from my last pizza - it worked
swell the first time so I now make double batches and freeze half . And I've got enough pizza sauce to do two calzones or one pizza ... And I'm thinking that I'm going to give it a whirl . The wife can't have dairy , so it works out well , I'm thinking shrooms , onions , beef , black olives , and pepperoni , maybe some ham too . Oven I think will be the same temp at 450°F , but on convection since I want the crust to brown nicely - I'll also have the pizza thingy (stone? but it's ceramic or something)in there , I like what it does for the bottom of the crust . -- Snag Ain't no dollar sign on peace of mind - Zac Brown |

Sounds like stromboli, either way, it's delicious. I do an egg wash on stromboli to give the nice browned appearance. nancy |

That convection oven is dandy for browning stuff . I'm still learning it's capabilities . -- Snag Ain't no dollar sign on peace of mind - Zac Brown |

Great idea... I like calzone better than pizza... only so far I've not eaten calzone without cheese. I've not eaten pizza without cheese either. Add some good Genoa salami too Let us know the results. |

I'm so shattered ! Dude , I've cooked for large groups and nobody complained - except when we ran out and they wanted more . To date , NOBODY has refused to eat my Q because it wasn't cooked to your standards . You just go ahead cooking yours so the result is a tough chewy piece of meat dripping fat all over , I'll keep cooking mine so it almost literally melts in your mouth and all the grease ends up in a drip pan underneath .. It's called "pulled pork" because it's so tender you can shred it with a fork - I usually use a plastic fork to make the point . -- Snag Ain't no dollar sign on peace of mind - Zac Brown |

I generally run between 185°-200° , nowhere near the 300°+ Squirtz is recommending . As I said , this is how I've been doing pork butts and shoulders for over 20 years . He apparently has had a bad experience with dry/tough/unsatisfactory smoked pork , and thinks that cooking faster means juicier . That ain't so , IF you use a good rub mix .. The brown sugar in my SnagRub forms a crust or glaze that keeps the meat moist during those long cooking times . The only times I have had complaints is when I tried to do it (sorta) his way with higher temps and shorter cook times . Ended up with tough and greasy meat that I didn't like . Quality takes time , and there are no short cuts . -- Snag Ain't no dollar sign on peace of mind - Zac Brown |

Quality takes time , and there are no short cuts . I do pork butt and brisket at 225F and they couldn't be juicier. The butt slides apart. I don't see any point to just have the smoker running for 13-18 hours to stand around and drink beer and feed the smoker. I'm just sayin' times have changed,. For safety sake, it is better to get meat and poultry up away from bacteria heaven. Why on earth would you want a smoker to go to 500F? Janet US |
