Who me? ...

Thanks for correcting me - starboard home not in :mad:. Only found it out myself recently, when we went on a cruise and were told of the origin of the phrase, although I think it was said a bit tongue in cheek!

That's my pleasure, perhaps you could let me know the American equivalent. Taking the Michael, is the posh (port side out, starboard side in!) way of saying taking the Mickey, which comes from cockney rhyming slang of taking the Mickey Bliss. I won't explain where taking the 'p***' comes from...

Your dough still doesn't look right to me, and I'm a complete novice. Seems a bit rough, I would search for another recipe. Try the Weber web site, here's the UK one; http://www.weber.com/GB/en/recipes/pizza-and-bread/pizza-with-prosciutto-and-wild-rocket.html as an example.

Hi Arun, taking the Michael is a British expression meaning 'to take liberties at the expense of others, or to be joking. If your not, then your dough is rubbish, unless you like eating pizza cake. Research some pizza dough recipes. You'll need to have a split of strong white flour and '00'...

Being a bit mean to those meeces :)

There's something wrong with your dough Arun, it looks more like a topping for apple crumble :( What is the recipe you are using? Are you kneading it and allowing it to rise? Or are you taking the Michael ;)

Sensible thing to do. PS put some cheese on those traps :p

You could watch this vid by this pair of characters. If you want to skip the outrageous Weber advertising, go to 7mins where they start cooking the pizza, although he still manages to burn it (like I did tonight). Very very hot oven, 3mins per turn; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=El0ABq9jMU8...

I have one of these https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9X3UROLQWY and very much a work in progress. But I think the principal is the same for any pizza oven. Get the BBQ hot, then hotter still. I posted here on this forum about how, and was told to use 1+ 1/2 chimney starter of charcoal, possibly...

Tell the old 'dear' to bog off, and get her flowers from the florist like everyone else ;)

:).........

Careful, you'll get us Brits barred from the forum :)

Yep mine was sold off at half price, so it might of been a bit of a white elephant. But I'll persevere and we WILL enjoy ourselves. ;)

There's an urban myth, that you never far than 6 feet from a rat, but they do lurk everywhere. An if you live in a rural area, you've got to expect them. Years ago, whilst sitting in my living, I saw one crawling across my decking. It transpires the Mrs had taken to leaving the veg peelings in a...

Cheers Tony, I've only used large chimney full, but since thought it needs more.

Thanks Dwain.

Thanks Tim, had my 'Default Thread Subscription Mode' set to do not subscribe. Has this forum no thanks etc buttons?

I bought one of these on a whim, when it was half price in a sale. I see now that Weber have discontinued them, in favour of a simpler pizza stone that goes in the GBS system. I see that there are also third party ovens for sale as well. Anyhow, got it now, so gonna make the best of things...

Hello one and all. Been on here for a few months. Posting here, as seems most suitable place; I can't seem to find how to turn on my notifications, so I get an alert when someone replies to either my thread or posts in a thread I'm watching. Anyone who can advice?
