There is such a thing as bad pizza even from the most common ingredients.

Never ate a pizza with pineapple until I was older. Basic tomato sauce, roni, and pineapple…with chewy crust thin or thick, any style…anything is allowed except a flippy & floppy crust, crust browned in the oven as well as the pineapple and cheese needs browned…I tell you is a Grand Slam even if it is different from your average pizza.

I’ve eaten some fantastic Greek “white” pizza that I thought I would hate.

Love basic mozzarella cheese slices whole and thick, as well as ripe tomatoes and sun dried tomatoes, fresh basil leaf, and good red gravy under it all. Roni, and sausage always welcome.

Never had coal fired pizza, but I could use my coal stove if someone would give me some tips. I have a pizza stone and could make a bracket to go across the brick retainer in this Hitzer 354.

I’m sure all the coal should not be black but glowing red???

Ive laid rerod on top of firebricks and cooked on a rack inside (not a pizza). I have to be honest, it didnt taste much better than using my oven. And i probably ended out eating some ash. But it can be done. Using wood, it tastes a lot better if you use a smokey wood.

The only smell I ever smell with anthracite is sulpher or oil that was put on the coal. Maybe Im missing something with the taste part of it. Im not someone that does much fancy cooking.

My mom always made pizza using Jiffy muffin mix. It sure was good. She’s make them in big rectangular sheets. Every one loved them.

Jiffy muffin mix. YUCK!! Worst sweet corn bread I’ve ever eaten. Pizza crust. Nope!

But you know what, different tastes is what makes us all so unique and special. I’ll try anything once…just about anyway. :lol:

Lol. It wasn’t the corn muffin kind. It was some other kind.
