Make It Yourself

With School House being the largest Boarding House at Shore, one finds that a simple task of cooking pizzas as a Saturday night activity, can be a fairly mountainous pursuit.  With a new House purchase of a Smoker/Pizza oven, yours truly took on the challenge.

So, the scene was set for the Master Chefs of School House to allow their creative juices flow and create something which would be edible at the end.  To my pleasant surprise, most boys adopted the ‘less is best’ policy and engineered some very palatable pizzas. 

I opted for the pre-made bases but everything else was by hand (with gloves).  Bacon, BBQ chicken, Salami, Ham, Pineapple, Onion, Peri Peri, Tomato base, BBQ sauce and of course CHEESE, were the medium to work with.

We quickly found out that the Smoker Oven was called a Smoker oven because it’s not a pizza oven.  With the School House oven deciding to be difficult we had to resort to Mrs Junee’s kitchen to get things moving.  With 9 in the oven, 4 in the smoker and 42 pizzas to cook, let’s just say we will start an hour earlier next time!!!!

With the start of the night resembling a scene out of ‘Dumb and Dumber’, by the end of the night, the pizzas were a great success.
