Step 12: Slice and enjoy.

Tips & Tricks

• For best results: Use an electric mixer for consistent dough development.
• Freezing: Shape dough into pan-size portions before freezing; defrost fully before baking.
• Cheese edges: Place shredded cheese along the inner pan edges for that signature caramelized crust.
• Prevent sticking: Oil the baking pan generously before proofing and baking.
• Even bake: Rotate during both the par-bake and final bake to ensure consistent browning.

About GOZNEY°

GOZNEY° was created by Tom Gozney, and this video covers his journey from a reckless kid, to aspiring chef, to founder & CEO of one of the biggest outdoor appliance brands on the planet today.

"Our mission at Gozney is to change the way the world cooks outdoors!"

— Tom Gozney (CEO & Founder)

GOZNEY° started by Tom building his own wood-fired pizza ovens to cook pizzas in, and when his friends started asking him to make one for them. As Tom says at the end of this video "Our mission at Gozney is to change the way the world cooks outdoors!"

GOZNEY° Oven Care & Maintenance

For cleaning the exterior of the oven, it is important to make sure that the oven has cooled down first. Then, use a non-caustic cleaning spray free of bleach to remove any dirt or stains. (Avoid abrasive cleaners such as Pink Stuff or Bar Keepers Friend.) Finish by wiping the area with warm soapy water and a soft sponge or non-abrasive dish cloth, followed by drying with paper towels.

An effective method for cleaning the interior of the oven is to incinerate any food residue or soot. Once the temperature of the oven reaches 650˚F, allow to stay at that temperature for 180 minutes to effectively remove any burnt-on food.
