Glorious Pizza22 viewsI want to take off my clothes and roll on it.

Smoke Box Preparing for Test42 viewsThis is what it looks like inside. I welded three tabs of steel inside to hold up the mesh. There's a smaller piece of mesh in the bottom to keep charcoal up off the steel.
And no, the mesh doesn't collapse when it gets hot.
Cutting the mesh with a grinder was no fun. Use a plasma cutter.

The Good, the Spam and the Ugly6 viewsI tormented 419 spammers for months, convincing them I was figures such as Barney Rubble and Adolf Hitler. Fun reading.
I wanted to call it "Good Morning Nigeria." Oh well.

Used Butter to Fix Grocery Store Shredded Cheese30 viewsI had a bag of Sargento low-moisture part-skim mozzarella, and I NEEDED a pizza, but I knew the cheese wasn't that great. It burns and tastes like vinyl. I added 3 tablespoons of butter to 12 ounces of cheese (by weight), and I worked a miracle. There was very little burning, and not much oiling off.Jul 17, 2008
