Cooking food on a car engine is, dare I say it, baked. |
|
|
It's a shame you can't do proper tandoori cuisine (slow cooking in a clay oven) that way too. |
|
|
Would kebabs work better than pizzas, do you think? I'm just thinking that the car engine would function better as a grill-style implement, rather than as an oven. |
|
|
I believe there was a popular book titled Manifold Destiny about cooking with a car engine. However, the idea about cooking something while it is being delivered is genius. |
|
|
EtT, I'm afraid the genius is Pizza Hut's (see link). |
|
|
Goddammit, I thought the gang of red-jacketed pizza delivery boys sitting behind us in the pub looked suspiciously interested. (When we had it, we thought this idea was pretty zany .... I'd love to see Pizza Hut actually implement it =) |
|
|
And just think of the thumb blisters you'd get from pushing that darned plug back into the dashboard socket over and over again ... :o |
|
|
If we undertake a slight redesign of the engine compartment to create a heat chamber with a conveyor rack carrying the pizza slowly through we could all be millionaires! (Or perhaps that should read hundredaires). I'm not sure about that make-it-on-the-fly part, though. I'd rather have the pizza arrive in one piece, so to speak. |

Help yourself to one half-baked croissant. |

Good pizza's are made in an stone oven heated with wood.
The pizza should be besides the fire, the heat circulates
thanks to the round shape of the construction. For
keeping it on temperature the heat of the car might be
recycled but that is extremely baked and violates the
original idea of saving on delivery time by cooking the
pizza during delivery. I know of a local pizzeria that has
build the panes of central heating systems horizantally in
a small Fiat. |

Yes, but they're not talking about good pizzas, they're talking about the likes of Domino's and Pizza Hut... |
