More pies tonight in the Bighorn pellet pizza oven. Homemade sauce with tomatoes from our garden.
 
Anyone have tips or a recipe for a deep dish crust baked in a cast iron pan?Found a few online but I find myself trusting you folks moreso than a random.

Are you talking about a Chicago style pizza or just a thicker crust cast iron pizza? If it's the latter then I make this one from ATK, and it's fairly good.

We make this regularly and it’s become very popular with our family. In fact, my sister and nephews are coming to visit in a couple weeks and have already requested it.

Pretty sure i became aware of it from this thread about 5 years ago when that article was published.

It’s not Chicago style deep dish, I’d say it’s actually closer to Detroit style pan pizza.
 
Finally took some photos before diving in this time. Cheese, motz with a touch of cheddar and a swirls of chili oil, and one with Kalamata olives and banana peppers

If you haven’t found it already I highly recommend Pizza Quest from Peter Rhinehardt (sp?), this is the NY style dough using honey and is some of the best pizza I can make in the home oven

The remains of last night pizza or a picture of today and tomorrow's lunch, 2 cheese and 2 sausage. Pizza cooked on a pizza steel in the home oven at 450.

My scale was on the fritz (or the operator), the dough felt too dry when I went to knead it and the total weight was off. I added an extra 50gm of water which made a sticky mess so I did a no knead first rise once I got it mostly worked in.

I put some cured cabrees sausage on part of the last pizza which tasted fine but the aroma was less than appealing, I told myself it was earthy, but I would say it was closer to barnyard.

Ended up making that crust tonight. We enjoyed it, I used a little less cheese but next time I’d probably use the recommended amount.

But for a first try, it’s a win. Never done a cold rise either so extra happy. Next time I think I’ll give the other linked recipe a try!

Wife got me a wood fired pizza oven for xmas, took it for it's maiden voyage on Friday, I got a few things to iron out but I can't complain with the first round results. 1 pepperoni the second has ham, peppers and my homemade pastrami that we had leftover. The bottoms got more burnt then I would prefer so I gotta work on that.

^I need to attempt a Reuben pizza. Love me a good Reuben! Do you use thousand island for the sauce?

I made a cheese and a pepperoni and mushroom in my Blackstone pizza oven. Cheese was gone before I got to take a pic. First time using the Blackstone in 35F. Took about 40 min to get to 600F

When I make Reubens I prefer to make my own russian dressing, I'd like to make a reuben pizza as well and I'd probably make the Russian dressing for the sauce. You could certainly use thousand island though, I think it'd be great either way.
 
My local pizza place makes one on St Paddys day, they put caraway seeds in the dough,use a beshamel for the sauce and drizzle the dressing when it comes out. Effen, Delicious!
