Cooking Education Part II: Pizza Rotation for 3-6 Pizzas
printer friendly version
Congratulations!
You've learned the basics of
Rotating 1 Pizza.
With that foundation you can cook a simple pizza that will wow your
customers time and time again.
The next challenge is to manage
several pizzas at once. The first time you're in front of an
oven with a few pizzas this may seem like a daunting task.
Good news! By learning to
Rotate 1 Pizza
you already have all the basic skills you'll need to manage 3 pies,
6 pies, even more! Just follow the 6 steps below to pick up
the basics of how to sequence the pizzas.
Again, the following example represents a
Mt. Adams 5' Gas-Fired oven, although the concept can be adapted
to any of the other Mountain Series ovens. Keep in mind the
Mt. Baker 6' and
Mt. Rainier 7' ovens will have
larger zones, while the Mt. Chuckanut
4' will have smaller zones.
  For
this example we keep the pizzas at approximately 10-12". More
details about our pizzas can be found in the
Recipe Library.
Here is a quick overview of
Pizza Rotation for 3-6 pizzas.

"Let's Keep It Simple" Tip: Pizzas in the
raw landing zone can move to any position in the finishing zone when
ready, however in Images 3 & 4 we suggest placing Pizza 3 towards
the back and Pizza 1 towards the front. As Pizza 1 was the first pie
in the oven, it should be the first to come out.
