Gobble Gobble!


We spent this Thanksgiving with Scott's family, and had a nice dinner. We cooked the turkey again using Alton Brown's famous brine recipe, and that always goes over very well. Not too much else to mention this year, we ate dinner, hung around and visited for a while and that was about it. Good times..

More Pizza Experimentation

So we did pizza yet again, we're doing it about once a week lately, just having fun, working on our techniques, and playing with different toppings you can't get from your local Dominos. This week Scott went for what he called a beer pizza. It had bratwurst and cashews on it. I went for a Michelle "white pizza" custom, which had garlic parmessan sauce, pepperoni, onions, mushrooms, and steak & crab. Both came out good, and even though mine was a little bland and could've used more "kick", it was good, and I would make it again. Here's some pics.

Pizza Again.


We made pizza again last night, and had some brand spankin' new pizza pans this time too, which worked out pretty well. The last time we made pizza our pizza cutter broke apart, so we didn't have one this time because the new one we bought hasn't arrived yet.

We experimented a little more this time, though still didn't go too crazy. Scott tried a few different cheeses and some pancetta on his, but ended up not caring for it much. I added a few more things on mine including some of Scott's cheeses, plus canadian bacon, pineapple, mushrooms, olives, and onions. A little bit Hawaiian, and a little bit Supreme. It wasn't too bad. I'll try and be more creative next time. Maybe try something i've never had on pizza before.

But yet again, I forgot to take a picture of the completed pizzas before we ate. One of these days i'm gonna remember to do that.
