I think if you are having friends over, it is a nice summer evening.  You have someone making the pies, you have another person who will help you tend the pellets.  You are just taking your time, eating, enjoying, it would be a very nice way to make some 10 inch pizzas.  On the other hand, you are a dufas, by yourself, in the cold and wind, trying to make stuff that is not in your wheel house...it is another story!

I am really hoping whoever wins it, and masters it, will try some of the stuff I just did not feel I had the time or skill or patience to do and post it in this thread!

Hey Bent.....thanks for trying the Naan.  I know it was a challenge, looked good enough to eat to me.  Most important, you did demonstrate it is possible to cook Naan in the Uuni.  Appreciate you trying and giving us the video.  Now I am really hungry for some Naan.   Snowing right now, do don't think I will even go out to get.

I like to toast the muffins before doing english muffin pizzas. Toast, top, into the Nuwave oven for 6 minutes, take out say those look really good, bite, burn all the skin off of the roof of mouth, fail to learn lesson because you do the same thing over and over again.

Thanks for all the work on the review.

wonder how that oven works in this...the storm that has that came early and exceeded the storm forecast 30 minutes after its originally projected start time..not to mention that i read an article last week about how it was not supposed to drop below 40° anymore this winter/spring

[BigDave83]

we had that stuff today also in SW PA, slippery, lots of crashes.

Well, it has been rolling thru East Central PA this afternoon and evening apparently at a rate higher than expected.

I just let it burn out.  You could cook on a plastic table with this thing, the separation of the legs is plenty enough room for the heat to dissipate!

Will try and get those last couple of cooks in this weekend.  Prep for Brandy Station Lunch today and the event tomorrow has curtailed my activity today and tomorrow.  Will then have Kristin figure out when the drawing is and try and set up the webcam so folks can watch the random number being generated...I guess that is how the winner is being determined?

is there a method to cool down the grill or do you just leave the chimney open and let it burn out?

how is that mesh table holding up to the heat from the grill?

Is the bottom below the stone insulated which keeps the heat from getting below the legs?

[Bentley]

No, just the metal of the body.  Not sure why the double wall on the sides and part of the top, maybe something to do with the convection and heat distribution.  Or maybe they are just trying to mitigate if someone touches the outside of those areas! 

I tried to take a reading with the IR gun, but mine does not have an emmisitivity adjustment, and I can guarantee you that the metal was more then 135°F when that thing was going full blast!

I think you have probably just described the difference between your testing and my experience being fed pizza by my friend!

[pmillen]

Bentley, did yours get sooty inside?  Sooty enough to get it on the pies?

Chris_M, is your friend's sooty?

[Bentley]

Yes very sooty inside I just got through cleaning it and I am filthy!  But I never picked up any sooty flavor in the pies, sometimes that bit of char, but that was heat, not soot!

On a side note, I would never have believed I could get that thing 98% packed the way it came!  I hope the winner will realize this has been used and I tried to get it "presentable" for lack of a better word.  It is a used unit!

The packing is pretty impressive. I don't think I've ever got anything back in a box the way it came. Especially one with that many pieces.

I noticed in some other YouTube uuni videos some very black smoke as well. It never seemed to color the pizza in those either, which I find very odd. Maybe it just sucks it so forcefully across the top and out that it doesn't drop on the food. It is a very big stack for a small piece of equipment.
