We’re starting something different in just over a weeks time, still pizza but no fire…
Keeping it simple to start with, a small choice of pizza and sides using as many ingredients as we can find from close by(which is much) and if all goes well there’s some interesting ideas we’ve been planning…
If you can, spreading the word would be much appreciated 😊

Cooking pizza on a warm and wet Glasgow day yesterday 😎
The market is in a great spot under a railway bridge just off pollokshaws road. Its so easy to walk past and you actually walk down to the deep end, which is the name of the place as it’s not just a stretch of ground that’s got stalls on it occasionally but the entrance to The Deep End arts space that’s always open and busy.

We're constantly at the moment having to read some hard fact news that we need to know about..........but lovely stories like this, are so important in amongst it all.

After the death of my mother, I wasn’t sure how my father, brother and I would knit ourselves into a unit. Could a sweaty nightclub in Lisbon hold the answer?

Can’t stop smoking and fermenting things…
From yesterday’s choice,
Fior di latte mozzarella, parmesan, grilled padron peppers, applewood smoked chicken, fermented tomato, garlic, red onion and finished with basil/parsley oil
It was great to be cooking again
Can’t believe how hard it is to get a premise…so many people bidding for anything that comes on the market…so for now I’ll be popping up here and there with a couple of some dough and a few ingredients 😁

Some devilled teenage chickens trapped in the bbq…these, when we start up, will be available on Sundays only and flavours will change most weeks…marinated in loads of garlic, lemon and cayenne pepper, they went well with the buttermilk and pecan coleslaw 🔥

Lovely article on the joys of Psychogeography and talking about positives that have come from COVID.
I truly miss the walks along cliffs and fields in Angus, but for me, nothing quite beats a drift without purpose in a city you love...

Think this is the dough we’re going to start using once we start starting…
Some 00, white rye and wholewheat with fresh yeast and 72 hours long with a 380 degree cook.
Using some new friends and we decorated the dough with some smoked chicken, a little wilted spinach and a few dollops of reduced tomato sauce full of garlic, lemon, chilli flakes and fennel seeds…

That’s it...the muckle backit oven has gone to pastures new, well about a month ago but it’s been hard to come to terms with. The wonderful world that is Sinclair's Catering has bought it to put it to work as part of their amazing team...weddings won’t benefit till next year but they’ll be starting a pizza takeaway in the coming weeks 😎
We on the the other hand are sitting pretty and waiting for all sorts of decisions to be made for us to be able to head forward...but meanwhile, by using the Gozney roccbox, we’re still figuring out all sorts of pizza/flatbread situations like this one...(pic)
Roast leeks with barley miso, wild garlic, mixed mushrooms and finished with ricotta and preserved lemon, it’ll be vegan too by just switching for some cashew ricotta...🌳
Until anything else then that we can babble about, you’ll find us on the banks of the White Cart Water...

Just in case and before we put it up for sale elsewhere, we’re checking to see if anyone linked to our social media would be interested in buying our wonderful oven that we’ve had for nearly six years now...
Our new plans don’t have a need for such a large mobile oven so we need to find it a new home where it will be properly used.
As usual we have no detailed pictures of it in action other than these few that we found. For full specs http://www.mobilepizzaovens.co.uk/catalogue/trailer-ovens/the-drago.html
The price we’re asking is £8500 and if anyone is interested please get in touch and we can send some detailed pictures and answer questions etc.
We’ve had so much fun dragging it around Scotland to all sorts of situations, we’ve often found ourselves very lost on backroads too but have mastered u turns in unbelievable moments of panic (weddings often tend to be in beautiful, hard to find parts of the country) 😁
It would be such a nice way for us to part with it by handing it over to a friend of The Muckle Backit Oven....so please either get in touch or spread the word to those you think might be ready for a new challenge 😎

It’s been two years since we’ve cooked pizza/focaccia with wild garlic!!!
Last year (for obvious reasons) it’s short season just passed us by but this year we’re filling the freezer with bags of it, gently wilted, waiting to be used when we can 😎
Fior di latte mozzarella, wilted wild garlic, Corra Linn cheese from Errington Cheese, wild venison salami from Great Glen Charcuterie, pickled shallots and a wild garlic and parsley salsa verde...

A couple of weeks ago after reading about news happening in Marseille(spiritual home of the mobile pizza truck), this inevitably resulted in a craving for a pizza “moitie moitie”, a Pissaladiere and the Marseille version of a Margherita...classics from the south of France...where it tends to be nice and warm and not here 😊
