Super Bowl Worthy Pizzas

With the big game only days away, we wanted to share some of our favorite pizza recipes with you, whether you are cheering on the Broncos or the HAWKS. Here are some of our top picks:

 

BBQ Chicken Pizza

Chicago-Style Deep Dish Pizza with Italian Sausage

While the thin-crusted West Coast, East Coast and Naples-style pies sometimes steal the limelight as guests watch them cook in 2-4 minutes in a Wood Stone Home oven, don’t underestimate the power of this classic from the Windy City to be a show stopper at your next party.  A slightly crunchy, biscuit-like crust bakes to perfection while allowing the cheese, sausage and sauce to meld together into yummy gooeyness. You’ll need knives and forks for this one.

Spicy Sausage and Mushroom Pie

We always roast mushrooms first before adding them to pizza. It only takes a few minutes and produces fungi with golden brown caramelization and concentrated flavor. Add sausage, cheese and sauce for a delicious and satisfying pie.

BBQ Chicken

Here’s a nod to our largest commercial customer, California Pizza Kitchen! Wood Stone’s relationship with CPK began in 1993 and we now have over 200 ovens in their stores worldwide. BBQ Chicken Pizza has long been one of their signature pies. This is our version.

Spicy Shrimp Pizza

The shrimp for this seafood pizza is already cooked, so we add cheese after the shrimp is arranged on the pizza to help balance the baking process. This protects the shrimp from becoming overcooked and tough, and ensures an evenly cooked pizza.


And if those don’t tickle your fancy, we have plenty of other Wood-Stone-Home-approved pizza recipes here. Also- we’d love to hear what you plan on cookin’ up for YOUR big game day party. Maybe you have a different pizza recipe you prefer? Wings? Dips? Please share it with us via the form below! 

p.s. Go Hawks!!

  

BBQ Chicken Pizza à la California Pizza Kitchen on the Road

It’s BBQ season at kitchen showrooms and Wood Stone Home makes the rounds to many Cook-Off events with our mobile oven to do battle with many other manufacturers of fine outdoor kitchen equipment.

This year I decided to serve up BBQ Chicken Pizza as a nod to our largest commercial customer, California Pizza Kitchen. With over 200 oven installations world-wide, Wood Stone’s relationship with CPK goes back 20 years and interestingly, was the impetus for our first gas-fired oven. Wood Stone Home oven owners reap the benefits of this innovation today, with gas-fired ovens providing convenience, as well as serving areas where wood-only ovens are not allowed due to local regulations for air quality.
