The Alfrescamoré Outdoor Pizza oven works just like your home oven. Spark the oven according the instructions and let it preheat on high for about 10 – 15 minutes. The thermometer should read about 500°F or more. Put cornmeal on the pizza peel. Roll your dough out on the peel and top it with whatever you like. Use your peel to slide the pizza into the open face of the oven and onto the center of the stone. Try not to lift the lid as you will lose you hot air temperature and the pizza will not cook as well. Keep an eye while the pizza cooks. Use your peel to check the crust and move the pizza around the oven. Cook until the top is melted and to the crispness you like. Enjoy!
WHY DOES MY DOUGH KEEP TEARING AND NOT STRETCHING?Dough is most workable at room temperature. If you bought your dough at the store you are going to want to leave it at room temperatures for about 4 hours to get the right consistency.
MY WOOD CHIPS/CHUNKS IGNITED IN THE CUP. WHAT DO I DO?This is normal and the fire should be contained in the oven like a real wood fired oven. You can keep making pizzas, or if you want to extinguish the chips you can turn the oven off, open the lid and let the chips burn off. If the lid gets soot on it you can wipe it off with soapy water when the oven has cooled.
WHY IS MY PIZZA COOKING MORE IN ONE SPOT?Various environmental factors can affect the even cooking of your oven. That’s normal though and even happens in the best of ovens. Simply use your pizza peel to inspect and rotate your pizza as you cook to make it perfect.
Absolutely! The pizza you make will come down to the dough recipe and roll. If you make a thinner dough base and roll it out you can make some thin crust pizza very quickly. Thicker crusts take a little longer to cook through but will come out great as well.
CAN I COOK OTHER THINGS IN THE OVEN?Of course! The Alfresamore Pizza oven works just like a regular oven. Don’t put any sugar based dough (like cookie) directly on the stone as it will absorb and stick. You should reserve your stone for just pizza so it conditions perfectly over time. If you want to bake meats, or other foods on the stone we highly recommend you buy a separate stone just for that.

MY DOUGH STICKS TO THE PEEL EVEN WITH CORN MEAL, HOW CAN I FIX THAT?Even with corn meal dough can get sticky. The best ways to prevent this are by limiting the time the dough sits on the peel while you prep ro wait to cook and work in cool areas as heat can speed up the sticking.
