Finally met Andris — Mr. Baking Steel himself in Grand Rapids! He’s so awesome.

We’re running a Detroit-style pizza hangout tomorrow at lunchtime where I’ll share my learnings from making Detroit-style pies for that past 2+ months.

Baking Steel Pizza Dough & Sketchnote Hangout 2024 — Rohdesign

ON WEDNESDAY, I had a great time hanging out on Zoom with Andris Lagsdin , the creator and founder of Baking Steel .

Baked a few 24-hr #ciabatta buns today for BLTs tomorrow at lunch. You can see the #bread loaves change color as I switched the oven to convection heat for the last one to see what a difference it makes in the crust. I was using #bakingsteel with these and dropped two ice cubes on halfway to make steam. #breadbaking

One of the fun parts about learning to make #pizza at home is once you nail down the dough recipe, it's easy to scale it up so that you have a whole extra pizza for #snacks.

This bog standard za was cooked on #Pizzasteel #bakingsteel which does a surprisingly good job in a home oven.

Friday night sorted. GBBO + pizza:

Central milling bread flour
Hormel Cup & Crisp pepp
Criminis and jalapeños
On #bakingsteel

I made the dough for these pizzas just as the #BrazilGP was ending and by dinner time: pizza better and cheaper than takeout. #bakingsteel
