How do I build a brick oven?

There are many designs and methods to build a brick oven and the sky is the limit as to what can be accomplished but if you are in the pizza business and not a skilled mason , don't have a friend who is skilled mason or know any oven builders the task can be daunting. That is why New York Brick Oven Co. provides the industry leading revolving deck brick oven. This oven is capable of being either wood fired, gas fired or both. The inferno oven also has the only under the deck patented electric heating element to ensure perfect cooking temperatures no matter how many pies you cook. Fixed or static cooking surface ovens require skilled pizza makers to constantly maintain the proper cooking temperature, rotate each pie to ensure it doesn't burn and knowing how to work around the inevitable hot and cold spots which slow down production and destroy your pies. Cooking in a revolving deck oven is both simple and cost effective and the smart business owner knows that turning out bad products and slow production can bring any company to it's knees. If you are a serious pizza maker and are looking for the hottest trend and future of the industry then check out the top gun of pizza ovens. Call New York Brick Oven Co. today!

What is a revolving brick pizza oven?

A revolving brick pizza oven is a brick oven that has a turntable brick cooking surface that rotates the pizza for you and ensures a perfectly cooked pie without having to have a brick oven expert to handle the usual high maintenance and special needs involved with a static or fixed surface oven. Some of these things that would make or break your product and production rate are: oven temperature-which can be set with a gas fired oven or a combination wood and gas fired oven, hot spots from bricks over heated, cold spots from the bricks not being able to recover the heat quickly due to cooking repeatedly on the same spot, having to constantly shift the pizza in the oven to avoid burning one side and cooking the pie evenly. All these ills are easily dispensed with when you can manually control the flame size and temperature. Moreover the rotating cooking surface is always at the right temperature and ensures all sides of the pie are cooked evenly without the need to turn them until they are removed for serving. WOW! The 3 time World Champion Goodfella's Brick Oven Pizza of Staten Island New York has removed one of their original ovens and replaced it with a revolving oven that "has increased efficiency, speed and consistency" said the founder Scot Cosentino. The oven is now part of the standard training for the new wave of pizza men and women attending the Pizza School of New York and the future of fast casual pizza.

Sounds ridiculous? It is. Don't be part of the crazy statistic for restaurant failure because you don't know and understand the basics.

AMERICA IS DEAD!

1.2 Million Americans would beg to differ with that statement and were determined to show unity and patriotism despite some perverse, morally corrupt, cowardly, socialist,  generated "politically correct" idea that it is not ok to be proud of being American. Veterans, businessmen and women, union workers, moms, dads and kids lined the streets of America determined to ensure the original American ideals of freedom are protected and preserved. They took off from work and left their businesses to make it known in Washington that we the people have had enough. Stop treading on us, our freedom and our concept of right and wrong while our country is being handed over to indigent, self serving politicians, corporations, bankers, life long welfare recipients and illegal immigrants that are living off the backs of hard working Americans and flaunting how they don't have to follow the same rules as the rest of us poor slobs that keep them in office, buy them food stamps, provide free medical, watch them spend more in government benefits then they could ever earn on their salaries or in the real world in a job or in business. Enough! Our soldiers are dying in hell holes in wars that are never ending. Enough! Our rights are being trampled on. Enough! Our "leaders" openly lie to us and then brush it off. Enough! We send billions to foreign lands while our own cities crumble. Enough! Trillions of dollars in bailout money unaccounted for.Enough! Spying on Americans. Enough! Sending the IRS to target Americans because of their political views. Enough! This can go on for a long time but you get the point. WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH, SO CLEAN UP YOUR ACT AND  START PAYING ATTENTION BECAUSE WE WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS ANY LONGER. DO YOUR JOBS, TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE SACRED TRUST INVESTED IN YOU BY THE POWER OF THE VOTE(PEOPLE) AND STAND TALL AS LEADERS OR STAND ASIDE AND LET SOME REAL LEADERS TAKE CHARGE. LEADERS THAT BELIEVE IN THIS GREAT COUNTRY AND KNOW THAT NO MATTER WHAT HAS BEEN DONE WE CAN FIX IT. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
