How a Master Pizzaiolo Perfects 600 Pizzas Every Day Smoke Point

Chef Dan Richer owns Razza, one of New Jersey s best pizza restaurants. Richer makes everything from meatballs to bread to pizzas a whopping 400 to 600 a night in the popular restaurant's wood-fired oven. KOforLiddell: I appreciate that this guy shows the objective measurements and calculations they take throughout the process to ensure consistency and quality in the pizza. A lot of times chefs just say we do this all by feel/instinct, which is fine but also makes a less interesting video imo.

600 pizzas a day? C'mon maaaaaaan. highly doubt that. Let's say they are open 12 hours. That's 50 pizzas an hour. Now lets cut that down 3/4's for 3/4's of the day. That's 96 pizzas total for 8 hours at 12 pizzas an hour due to non-peak time. So that leaves us with 4 hours left in the shift to make 504 pizzas. Unless they have a few more ovens in that place, I'm not sure they can pull those numbers off. Now we can adjust based on the amount per hour, lets say 6 hours peak and 6 hours non peak time. That's 25 pizzas an hour for 6 hours, leaving 450 pizzas to be made in 6 hours. That 75 pizzas an hour. Still quite a feat if they only have one oven. Just sayin. And let's say they do push our 600 pizzas a day. let's say each order averages around 25 bucks. That's 15k a day so lets just take half for taxes and other BS. 7. 5k a day and let's say they are open year round. That ends up being 2, 737, 500 a year before payroll. Let's say that the workers are paid about 100k for 10 full time workers with benefits and what not which is extremely generous. That still leaves the business with with a net income of 1. 7 milly. Not sure I'm in the right business if these numbers of 600 pizzas a day are true. I need to find a wood fired oven ASAP.

Convection is the least important part of a wood-fired oven? It helps feed oxygen to the very hot fire, and it helps remove moisture for a crispy crust. Hardly the least important characteristic of the wood-fired oven.

All right, who wants to guess this fading hipster's previous background before sacrificed to follow his passion and become a pizza chef? Judging from the way he talks, I'm gonna guess cashed-out techbro.

This is a man who takes pizza as seriously as pizza deserves. Taking care of every single step in the process in order to achieve simple results near perfection. I applaud him!

It's sad that one of the hand-made pizza shop I wanted to go was closed. The owner himself made an oven and I've never tasted a pizza from oven like this.
