Circular Saw Pizza Cutter
Sadly, the Pizza Pro 3000 pizza cutter is not a functioning circular saw. Although, if it were, things could get nasty fast—and you'd need safety goggles at dinner time. It's yet another novelty pizza cutter for the pizza freak in your life. Release date and price TBD from Fred & Friends [via Nerd Approved. Thanks, Humes!]...The Pizza Dome: Whatever
Yes, we've seen the Pizza Dome. It's so not going into the upcoming Slice–Serious Eats Gift Guide this year....Man Builds Coal-Oven Grill Simulator
Editor's note: A short time ago, homeslice Philip G. got in touch, telling me there was a post on pizzamaking.com that was making quite a stir: Reverse-Engineered Coal-Fired Brick Oven. Apparently, a Michigan man had invented a grill insert that he claimed simulated a coal- or wood-fired oven. I clicked over and became fascinated by the metal-and-stone device (pictured below). Could something so simple-looking achieve the holy grail of at-home pizza-makinghot enough and consistent enough temperatures to perfectly cook a pie? I don't know yet, because my 2stone Pizza Grill has only today begun its UPS journey to my home...Pizza Case
I don't know about you, but I've never been able to keep a leftover slice around long enough to cart it anywhere in a little resealable pizza case. But, if you have such willpower and you just happen to live in Seoul, South Korea, you might want to pick up such an item. Slice found this one on the blog Superlocal via Poketo. It was purchased at a thousand-won shop there, the equivalent to a dollar store in the States. Update: As homeslice Prairie points out in the comments here, yes, they do have something similar in the States....Round and Round: Pizza Cutter Test
The Chicago Tribune takes nine pizza cutters out for a test spin. This being a Chicago paper, its judging skewed more toward wheels that could handle deep dish: We wanted a cutter that could make slices without too much effort, cutting but not crushing that thick outer crust, and with wheels big enough to navigate the fillings. The smaller wheels got gobbled up by the pizza; in some cases the safety guards were so close to the wheels that cheese and sauce collected on the base--a mess for sure, but also robbing our servings of those tasty ingredients. Finally, we...Portable Pizza Oven
At some point, the guy who invented this thing (right) was like, "I love pizza. I love to drive. How can I merge my two passions?" Instead of getting a pizza delivery job, like anyone else, he came up with a portable pizza oven that plugs into a car's cigarette lighter socket. Perfect for all those times you wanted to cook your frozen pizza on the way home from the grocery store. 12-Volt Portable Oven and Pizza Maker [Sports Imports Ltd.]...The NyFork
Sure, they all blogged it last week, but who among them bought it? Who among them spent their hard-earned money on a NyFork? Who among them risked life and limb (well, tongue and finger, more like it) to test this gizmo for its effectiveness in service to the pizza-eating public? That's right: Nobody. This blog alone braved the dual dangers of hot pizza and sharp slicer (so sharp, in fact, that it is "not recommended for use by small children") to bring you this report. I received my set of two NyForks yesterday afternoon at the office. Instead of...Pizzork
Slice started using that del.icio.us web-based tag/bookmark thing last week, seeing as how all these blogger folk are doing it. Upon signing up, we did a quick search to see what sort of pizza stuff (of course) was on there and found this pizza cutterfork. We tucked it away in our bookmarks meaning to bring it to you and post about it after we had received and tested our forks. Unfortunately, Boing Boing, the "Directory of Wonderful Things," forced our hand with its post this morning. Anyway, for the two people who haven't seen this already, take a look. It's...Slice-cycles: Pizza Cutters as Art
Take a spin: Artist Frankie Flood's pizza cutters take inspiration from chopper motorcycles and fringe culture. Clockwise from top left: Mantis (2003), Psycho Pizza Cadillac (2003), Easy Rider (2001), Pizza for Life (2002), and Phatboy (2003). [Credit: Frankie Flood] Some of you might have caught these pizza cutters yesterday on gadget blog Gizmodo. If you didn't see them there, behold them here. Artist Frankie Flood creates "machined pizza cutters [that] draw inspiration from chopper motorcycles and attempt to reclaim the mythology and economic usefulness of the American worker as patriarch; translating machine or functional object into flesh and blood."...Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network.
