thIn Crust PIZZA

Crust formed to less than 1/8” thick

Suggested Upper burner setting: HIGH

TEMPERATURE RANGE

When the oven is fully pre-heated, with both burners 
on HIGH, the Oven is capable of intense heat in excess 
of 1200ºF. The heat is most intense at the rear of the 
cooking deck and least intense at the front. Once you 
are familiar with cooking with your oven, you will be able 
to turn out perfect pizzas in no time. You should only 
cook thin crust pizzas with few toppings at the upper 
end of the temperature range. You can also buy specialty 
flour to avoid burning the dough.

When the upper burner is set to LOW and the lower 
burner is LOW or OFF, the oven cooks at a very low and 
slow speed. Temperatures can be as low as 300ºF.
