Pizza at Jason’s House (and yours)

In 2010 Jason built a brick pizza oven in his back yard.  Here’s a glimpse of what that looks like !  Deana usually is the one to make the dough, (Joe would say it was like watching the miracle of the loaves and fishes she can produce so many).  Jason fires up the oven a couple to three hours in advance to achieve just the right temperature.  The party takes on many faces from there.  There are ‘build your own’ pizza nights where an array of ingredients are set out for individual inspirations, sometimes there is a set variety they have decided on, and sometimes guests have called ahead with requests.  Don’t be discouraged if your backyard isn’t equipped with a wood-burning oven, this home-made dough, and a pizza stone can come close and will also produce all kinds of fun for all ages.  Below are some of the steps for the backyard versions and a few samples of pizza combinations you can try on your own.
