Let's go truck camping high in the snowy mountains of Alaska in the middle of the summer! Something bad happens, then I'll take you whitewater kayaking down the Lilttle Susitna River in Hatcher Pass... and finally we go to Matt's ( @alaskacabinadventures) property to help him build his new cabin!

I just wonder why you go so far away from the rig to chop wood?

@fredeschen3783 10 месяцев назад

Depends on the dough but I like to cook the dough for a few minutes before I put the toppings on. Less sog and more crispy. But some doughs don’t necessarily need that extra step. Your pizza looks great especially in those surroundings.

@Akstergrind День назад

I'd never heard of those One-Wheel things before watching your videos. They're AWESOME!!! I'm British and we hardly ever say "awesome" so they MUST be good!

Hi from Malaysia, Tim! Your vanlife adventures are the best so far that I have watched on RU-vid. I graduated from a Nova Scotian university 32 years ago, and your life in Alaska/Yukon reminisced about my experiences living in cold weather in Wolfville, NS. Keep making good videos, Tim! I love your wooden house on the road, too! ❤

@johnnypeshlakai6584 8 месяцев назад

Definitely thumbs up on your camping. I do recommend using another stick to balance (or hold) when splitting the wood. This would totally eliminate using your hand to hold the wood and accidentally slicing your finger(s) when splitting wood for your stove. Try it, it’s safer!

@lordace1997 7 месяцев назад

If you'd to try a crisp crust, try baking the dough 1st no toppings for 5 to 6 minutes, then build your pizza and bake normal. Worth it!

@medionlvr 10 месяцев назад

a way to step up your pizza game is to buy chunk mozz and shred it yourself. prepackaged has a coating of potato starch and powdered cellulose. This keeps the strands from clumping together in the bag, but it also keeps them from melting together nicely during cooking. another personal preference is to not completely cook the sausage and let the oven finish it off.

@G_Fresh_ 10 месяцев назад

Was going to comment on not using the stuff in the bag as well, due to the starch. Glad I searched the comments first!

Moose's tooth pizza is one of my best memories from Anchorage, Ak. I think we ate there twice on our trip. What an awesome pizza spot. I also had my first reindeer sausage "hot dog" in Talkeetna, Ak. That was as close as we got to Denali. Still an awesome view of it even from there. And fun tidbit, it was colder in ky than it was in Anchorage in January. 27 there and 19 at home. I was shocked. I would go back, dead of winter, in a heartbeat. Also something we learned. We were not allowed to rent a vehicle in Anchorage and drive that rental to fairbanks. They said, if we wanted to visit fairbanks, we needed to fly into there and rent a car there and drive it down to Anchorage because Anchorage rentals don't come with block warmers. Good times for sure! I love watching your videos

@suecbrn 4 месяца назад

A pizza suggestion: Maybe try a pizza stone in your oven. It's good to cook on for a lot of things- (i.e. cookies) if you like a crisper crust or cookie. You can preheat or build it right on the "stone" and it works really great! I got one from Pampered Chef and a few of their other stones. They might be good for your rig because you don't have to wash them all the time. you just wipe it off and the oils over time develop a nonstick surface, and work great! You don't have to get it from there, but you can see the examples they have to guide you elsewhere too.

@suecbrn 4 месяца назад

@rednecklottery8418 10 месяцев назад

Put the sausage on top of the pizza raw and it will cook when baking. Saves time and gives a better product. A lot of pizza places do this and since starting it myself I don’t do it any other way. It also save you from cleaning a pan. But it can add extra grease
