Been on lockdown since March, we finally had in laws over for dinner.... outside. Karu got a work out, making 8 Pies. Kept pretty basic, a pepperoni, pep and sausage, sausage, mushroom, margarita, white, and 2 cheese (not pictured). Still getting the hang of it, but the random wind gusts didn't help. I have no problem practicing and eating pizzas.
Overall the Ooni (Uuni) Karu is awesome, I start with charcoal to get a good base, then add wood . We usually roast veggies first, then make the pizzas. We have also made salmon and chicken in cast iron and its pretty cool.
Set up (from previous cook):

Love the action shots. The fire in the back makes it look so cool.

8 was a lot but manageable. If I was consistantly making that many I would seriously think about getting the gas insert, but the thought of wood fired pizza is pretty cool to me. I would suggest getting one, but that's just me

Looks good to me! Makes me want to bust out one of my Uuni/Oonis! I have to be honest here, in my opinion gas is the way to go. I don't EVER use my Uuni 2S. Ever. The Ooni Koda is SO much easier to use and I can't tell a difference in taste from the Uuni 2S but maybe it's just me.
Either way, I think I see pizza in my future :)

I was about to get the gas one when they said an announcement was coming. I waited and saw a wood/charcoal was coming. I have both on hand and like to burn things. I don't have a need for pellets so I didn't want to get the pellet one.
I can't tell a smoke/wood flavor but as I said I like burning things.

Great looking pies. What's your recipe for the dough?

I use the Ooni classic dough recipe with cold proofing so less yeast
500g Flour
300g water
10g salt (I add a touch more)
0.8 g instant yeast (2 g if using same day)
My wife likes store bought so I always do a few of each
Excellent pizzas. Very nice yard.
Thanks on the yard, its come a long way since last year, 20 trees, 11 yards of soil, 5 gallons of round up for ivy patch, and 1 bobcat later we have room for a swing set and a hill for our 2 year old to run up and down.

Very nice

Very nice. I've been wanting to do pizza, but we've been on a sushi kick lately.
