Hand Tossed Goodness

You'll see a ton of homemade pizza pics on this blog. If I could only get my home oven to reach eight hundred degrees they would be greatness. This one was sausage and monterey jack, I believe.

• One dough (from Lou's pizzeria)


• base is EVOO, shallot, fresh garlic


• jack cheese


• sliced sausage

I would also throw in tomatoes but brooke wouldn't eat it if I did.

Cade & Jax have officially mastered Porterhouse Handling Boot Camp. It was a 2.10lb angus cut grilled medium rare that was hard to beat.
