Campfire Pizza Cooked in a Dutch Oven. Handmade Bread Dough. Baker Tent.

- Опубліковано 23 лис 2024
- In this video, I venture out into the wilderness of my garden to do a bit of campfire cooking. I have set up my trusty homemade baker tent (apt!) in a quiet corner amongst the bushes with a fire pit in order to continue filming during the current crisis and lockdown - the perfect retreat!
After making and hand stretching a simple bread dough, I use my biggest Dutch oven to prove the dough and then bake a delicious pizza over the campfire.
Wood fired pizza is simply the best!
I hope you are all well during these ongoing troubled times, hopefully things will return to normal soon!
Stay safe and take care.

Bread Recipe
1 Ib plain flour (450g)
1 lb strong white bread flour (450g)
1 oz dried yeast (28g)
1 oz sugar (28g)
1 oz salt (I only use 1/2 tsp)
1 (imperial) pint tepid water ( 568ml or 1 1/5 US pint)
Mix a little of your water with the sugar and yeast and set aside (it’ll start to froth as the yeast feeds off the sugar)
Combine the flour and salt in a bowl or large zip-lock bag
Make a well in the middle of the flour mix and add the yeast mixture, a little at a time, combining with the dry ingredients
Keep adding the remainder of the water, mixing all the time
Once it is all combined, clear a space, roll up your sleeves and get ready to get physical!
Kneed the dough for at least 5 minutes, folding and pushing it to create stretch and structure in the dough
Place the dough in a warm place to prove - it needs to double in size.
Once proven, knock the air back out and kneed again.
Cut into 8 rounds, roll out and stretch to the size you like.
If you like, you can part bake your bases at this point, other wise carry on to the next stage
Assemble your pizzas, adding toppings AFTER the cheese! Season.
Bake in a hot oven or dutch oven until golden brown and crispy.
Enjoy

A small tip from someone who worked in a pizza shop , brush a little olive oil over the base all the way to edges , before you put the tomato etc on top . It browns it nicely and makes for an even crunchier crust 🍕.
hi Simon, it seems I'm the only Italian to follow your videos. congratulations, you have earned the title of honorary "pizzaiolo".
I’m bingeing on Simon’s videos tonight. I really like that his yard is so healthy and ialive with birds. Simon seems to do a lot of things. He’s a carpenter, a historian, a canoe builder, a sailor, a hiker, a camper, a tent maker…and a good campfire cook. Well done, Simon. Thanks for sharing…from an old man in the US, hills of east Tennessee.
An absolute, all around work of art and act of kindness. Thank you Simon for your part in keeping us civilized.
👏👏👏🧤💥
Thanks mate! 👍😁🍕
Looks delicious! This brings back a fun memory from many years ago. I took a large group of friends to Antelope Island in Utah's great Salt Lake. We hand mixed homemade dough and put everyone to work making custom pizzas and cooking over charcoal in 14 inch dutch ovens. We ended up making 16 pizzas! We ate and ate on that beautiful summer night with buffalo and other wildlife wandering near us. We woke up to pizza leftovers for breakfast! I'll never forget that, one of my most memorable pizza cooking adventures ever! Thank you for the happy reminder!
Happy memories! That sounded lovely! 👍😁
Omg he bakes as well!!! Stuck in continuous lockdown here in Ireland and have the tent out in the garden to allow us to feel that away while on annual leave. Stay safe everyone and thanks fir the inspiration of these videos!
"Simon, a bloke in the backyard"
...I'm happy you're able to carry on filming during this lockdown!
Love the Baker tent👍
I grin everytime I watch u eat!
Whoever dislikes these videos needs to grow up, top bloke and really informative especially as I’m currently training in the army so it’s good to get knowledge of someone who actually knows things like and your whole charisma and attitude never fails to put people in a good mood
Thanks mate! Hope the training is going well.
👍👍👍
Who needs Dominos or Pizza Hut when you’ve got pizza like this. Outstanding! 👋👋👌👍 Simon
Love the sounds of the birds.
Thanks Simon by the way....absolutely love these vids
What a great idea camping in the garden! Hope parents see this and give children an adventure during lockdown.
i searched for dutch ovens and hit the jackpot when i found Simon baking his campfire bread in one and I 've been hooked to a bloke in the woods ever since hehe
Thank you!
That's a FINE looking Pizza. TAKE CARE..
Even under lockdown conditions. Thank you for still trying to make quality content. Your a legend Simon 👌
I’ve had an idea. If you want to help support Simon in these times start his play list at bedtime and turn the volume down while you sleep. Sounds cheesy but views help
You are a star Travis! Thank you! 😁
If I watch a video more than once does it count towards the view count?
I’m
Definitely doing this
I'm not gay , no , really ... not . BUT , I can sleep like a baby with a low volume of his shows playing in the background . He has that , je ne sais quoi about his voice . Like Morgan Freeman velvet sonics . LOL , I think I should record these episodes in case of an apocopes . I would miss your voice Simon .
I am lucky enough to reside in conditions like these. I really must get out more. Stunning
Simon I don't want to tell granny how to suck eggs, but you forgot to let the dough rise a 2nd time b4 baking. We live and learn don't we. Great video as always , love you stuff Simon, Top class channel, you really do deserve more subs. Love your stuff mate.
Thanks Simon, great video!
Lol...I was just about to ask about Mags....and there she appears! ♥️ Sweet girl. The pizza looked so delicious Simon. Your food always does. Thanks for braving the garden wilderness to bring us a video!! 🙏 Cheers and be well.
P.S. Also, I really enjoyed the music! Great selections.
Thank you! 😁
The sound of that pizza being cut... now I'm hungry.. 😂
Definitely, a trivet/meat rack is a required item for Dutch Oven cooking. Good for you to mention how your bread was burned without it. Fortunately, I saw videos that taught me their value before baking chicken in my Dutch oven.
I've hanging on looking out for your next video to help keep my (and everyone else's) spirits up. Brilliant as always. Massive thanks from the bottom of my heart.
Thanks David - keep hanging on in there - it’ll get back to normal eventually! 👍
Delicious. Thanks for sharing.
Honestly, I love the rain. Please film in the rain more! It adds to the rustic cozy ambiance
Awesome dutch oven Pizza!! Thanks for making me so hungry Simon!! Stay safe, be well, and hoping we will be back to normal somewhat soon!
Hey Simon, used your pizza dough recipe the other day. It worked perfectly, we had a wonderful evening cooking pizzas. I certainly will be adding it to my camp recipes. Thanks to you from Australia.
Excellent job. You're an expert now. You've done it at least once and are farther ahead of those of us who haven't. Thanks I'm going to try this now.
'If it ain't raining...we ain't training?' in a 'woodsy' corner of your garden, you can do anything you could do in the woods or in the field...except for the longer pack in and out. Great tutorial, with the pre-baking of the crust being important for the Dutch Oven. Love the sounds of the thin and crispy crust.
Thanks it was great spending time with you. Cheers
Thanks so much Simon. Whether it's your outdoor pizza or canoe adventure with Maggie dog your posts are always "comfort food" especially during these lock down days! Re-visiting your previous posts just reinforces the wonderful world out there ! Thanks again for your time.

That was just the perfect crunch.
This just made smile HUGE😁 I will watch this again and again BIG THANKS for such amazing content Simone God bless and CHEERS!!
Thank you! 😁
Simon, your content should be available on prescription. Watching your videos certainly improves my mental health - especially at the moment when I can't get to a bothy.
Thanks mate! Stay well. 👍😁
Good camera work all round, visually engaging. Thanks for the details. Hope the family enjoyed a precious opportunity and a good meal.
Thank you!
Keep up good spirits among you, all the best.
A big thumbs up for proper weights, no nasty cups or grammes thank you!
Dutch Oven pizza is always good. Doesn't matter if it's in the wild or the back garden.
Nice one.
Best wishes
Al
Cheers Al! 😁👍
Pizza dough has always been one of my struggles. Amazing job. We live in an area where our home is 100% electric so we are exploring ways to cook on our wood stove and outside on a fire pit. Its actually a lot harder then it looks but it is a lot of fun. So far we have had some success. Not sure what we are going to try next but this is definitely on the list!
Nice to be able to set in your yard like that. Pizza looked good hope the family enjoyes pizza night
It's midnight, just watched you make, cook and eat a pizza, now I'm hungry.
The crunch on that Pizza, looked and sounded great, I’m still in love with the Bakers Tent 👍
Cheers Ant! 😁👍
I'm so glad you're still putting out videos. I've been really missing not being able to get into the country side and these films really help scratch my itch :)
You deserve a hearty Bravo for Bushcrafting in the yard! Hope you’re staying well. I live in the Louisiana bayou country. I can get out in my kayak and sail on a few of the lakes. You’re a good bloke in the woods.
Wow. Just Wow! Thanks for making this one. So peaceful and also yummy.
피자도 맛있게 하시네요.삼각대에 솥을 걸어 숫불로 예열하여 피자를 구울수있는것을 보니 신기해요. 화덕없이 오븐기능을 간단한 조리도구로 해결하시니 놀라워요.
With a back yard like that, who needs to go bush. Great video.
I love the old school bakers tent! Well done with it being hand made you did an exceptional job. The pizza looked great too!
Thanks Vic. 👍
I still remember when you made the baker tent. Glad to see it still works well. I'm thankful that many of you youtube bushcrafters are keeping up the videos as best you can during the Covid craziness. I for one really appreciate the effort and original ideas. By the way, thanks for the tip on Richard Outdoors. I like his channel too. Both of you are well rounded in that you have outdoor hikes and adventures, recipes and cooking and hot-to aspects to your channels that I learn from. I made my wife (she's the bushcrafter in the family) the same spice kit you have after watching one of your videos and checking out the video you suggested where you got the idea from. It works well Thanks, snd keep up the good work!
Thanks Rick!
Keep well. 👍
It looks delicious very professional cooking in wildlife !
Oh ya! I can smell the coffee and the food.... oh wait I have a coffee beside me! Thanks for sharing. Amazing tent!
I couldn't help but notice the Rob Evans knife. Sweet! Great video, I'm going to make some dutch oven pizza this weekend.
And now it's lunch time! Bless you and your family and friends!
Must try this! Watched your bread making video earlier - what a versatile dough!
Made these the other night although the missus wouldn't let me use the Dutch oven.
I had a great idea - charred a few little bits of Apple wood and put them in the oven with the pizza.
My wife's angry face appearing through the smoke with the alarm going off made it like a real survival situation.
Hey Simon - When you cut that pizza , the crunch sound from the crust spoke volumes .
A culinary masterpiece and a work of art . Thanks for the lesson and the recipe . Stay healthy & happy . Lefty in New Mexico
Thank you for vlogging this it gives us idea that we can cook pizza from a dutch oven keep up the good work!
Great, now I have to go make a fire... :) Delicious looking pizza, thanks for sharing Simon.
Thank you Simon sir for sharing that pizza looks delicious cooked in the Dutch oven I will have to try that in my new Dutch oven❤️
From Tennessee in the United States I wanted to say hope all is well and doing okay in your neck of the woods! Good camping videos mate 👍 really awesome. Here in Tennessee we camp Lot, there alot of mountains, trails, good places to set up camp. Sucks that we are still in a pandemic but we will all get through this together ❤. Good videos mate, love the cooking ones. Gives me alot of inside on camping meals. Well looking forward to the next one. Cheers
That looks delicious. I agree. Pizza always tastes better cooked over fire. I cooked some on my charcoal grill with a pizza stone last week. I love the crispy crust and the smokey flavor.
We're making pizza today as well. My kids and I so look forward to your videos. Thank you!
The simple way you made this pizza inspires even the worst cooks amongst us, well done! Your smile at the end was so cheery it made the video extra good.
Good to see you Simon, and another great video, I hope the family are all well , and your all staying safe. Al.
Perfetto Simon. Nice garden camp pizza stay-home-get-away. Thanks for this.
Great video very inspiring. Love the woodies in the background.
Love this old school cooking.. ppl should enjoy the out side with or with out corona
Great recipe!!! I like thin crust pizza. I like cheese on the bottom and the top. Your bread recipe is my go to for cast iron baking. I like to make it a bit moist and knead more flour into it. It helps me avoid too dry bread. Love the videos. Keep them coming.
Hi Simon .
Try a simple pizza dough .
Just two ingredients.
11/2 cups of self-rising flour .
1 cup of plane Greek yogurt. That's it .
When mixed kneed the dough .
Then let it rest for 30 minutes .
And your done .
Shape your pizza add your pizza sauce and your favorite toppings and enjoy .
That is super simple! I’m going to try that, cheers! 👍👍👍
Always a bonus when I get the notification Simon has uploaded a video, great stuff
Great vid, I use to put dried mixed herbs on but then by accident I put only dried oregano on thinking it was mixed herbs and I have to be honest it tasted even better.
I really enjoyed your video. I’m now planning to try this myself. Thank you 👍
Tom got ripped off lol. That looked delicious man. Thanks for sharing your videos in such a humble and knowledgeable way!.
Nice garden, awesome tent and Dutch oven. Thanks. Nice pizza
One of the very finest channels on YT. Excellent content and a great distraction from the current situation. Greetings from the south of Africa.
Thank you!! 😁👍
Thanks Simon. A great, resourceful video. Lovely to see Maggie as well. Stay safe. Judith
Great Pizza - thank you very much for sharing - best wishes from Germany to you 👍❤️😊
so good....the location..the pizza....thank you so much..all the best from bavaria stay health..hi chris
Didn't expect this to be a great cooking channel as well! Only suggestion, Simon, is to prick that dough with a fork before you pre-bake it. Cheers!
The sound of that crust is making my mouth water 😆
Simon what a great dude you seem, don't forget to relax while filming remember the videos are for you and your family. if you get views and income then even better.
Smoke in the eyes!
Great video, thanks!
That was a generous slice you kept for Tom. Looks amazing
Thanks for the remote Pizza, hope you and yours are doing well. Thanks.
looks great!
I Absolutely love homemade pizza my mom use to make them when I was younger , he’ll when this Quarantine is lifted I might go to her house & make a homemade pizza with her & invite my daughter over. Pepperoni ,bacon , onion , green peppers , sausage , Extra cheese , light on the sauce , Garlic powder , black olives , man o man I can’t wait o I almost forgot pineapple too .
Sounds good!! 😋
Life with the natural ✨
You amaze me every time I watch your videos!
Very good Simon. Now I'm sorry that I gave away an old 16" Lodge Dutch Oven. That crunch sounded really good. You're right about fire and pizza.
Okay, that looks like the best pizza in the world! That crunch you have on it, that's the fire! Ahhhh. Now I'm hungry!! Thanks for always inspiring videos!
Great video, loved the bird sounds in your garden. I'm going to try the Dutch Oven pizza this weekend, thanks for posting.
Damnit man, made me drool when you pulled off the top of that Dutch oven, even more when you kept cutting slices, that looks Soo delicious 😋
Outstanding Simon! Thanks for putting this out. We love making pizza in our Dutch oven.
That crust passes the crunch test.
Cheese first, toppings and cheese last... Can't go wrong there... Thanks for the video stay safe and healthy...
Petromax cooking rocks. Great video Simon 👍
🤣😂I'm sure Tom appreciated your generosity!!! Great video Simon. Give's me an idea for my "backyard-locked down" camping. Be well. Roger
Man that looks great! The sound of the crust was 👌🏻
