#2030 Perforated Banjo Peel - 59" handle $62.00
My favorite tool. I absolutely could not get by without it. It's the perfect pizza "turner" for woodfired ovens ... or any oven for that matter.
This small-headed peel is used to spin and remove pizzas from the oven, or adjust and place logs on the fire. Stainless-steel head, and stainless-steel rod. The smooth-sliding and heat-resistant plastic handle improves accuracy of movement, and allows ease of operation and accuracy.
Frankie G's notes: I personally have used this since the first firing of my oven. Note the sliding handles. These peels are fixed with one secure handle at the end, and one sliding handle on the stainless-steel rod. This allows its operator to easily maneuver the peel where needed, without readjusting one's hands. GREAT design! It’s not only a necessity, it's really fun to use.
Other peel sizes and replacement handles are available on our SPECIALS page.

Use this peel inside or out! Small enough for use in a home oven, yet sturdy enough to hold up to a brick oven.
Note the sliding handles. These peels are fixed with one secure handle at the end, and one sliding handle on the aluminum rod. This allows its operator to easily maneuver the peel where needed, without readjusting one's hands. GREAT design!

#2071 Professional Wooden Peel - for Pizza and Bread 12" x 14" x 22" $18.00
There is a difference in what one can buy from a kitchen-supply store, and these professional light-weight wooden pizza peels. Brands like Sassafras and other home-store labels, are not made to withstand use, or have the baker/pizzaiolo in mind.
A great tool should make the job easy and should allow one to perform their task without special attention or direction. Our professional wooden peels do just that.
They are sturdy, light-weight, and manufactured to perform perfectly. This size is GREAT for home-kitchen use for placing and retrieving bread and pizza to and from the oven.
For Pizza: Professionals choose to make pizzas on light-weight, wooden pizza peels, because of their porous surface. Pizzas slide off the surface quickly and easily. The light-weight/sturdy construction make it easy to lift with a fully-topped pizza. Try to use a heavy peel and the Pizziola’s arm will be like rubber bands at the end of the night.
For Bread Bakers: This is the perfect size for 1 or 2 small loaves. Not only the perfect tool, but a necessity for any baker's kitchen. Your loaves will slide off these peels with ease.
Our peels are made from durable, laminated SOLID wood, and weigh about 15-16 ounces. (1#)
The blade is 12" wide by 14” long with a 9” handle. From handle to end (scooping tip), the peel measures 22".
It's a perfect length, short-handled peel and it is tapered down to the front of the blade, which allows its user to scoop up pizzas, loaves of bread, etc.
#2072 Professional Wooden Peel - for Pizza and Bread 14" x 16" x 24" $20.00
Durable, light-weight, wooden pizza peel. The exact ones that the pros use.

Our peels are made from durable, laminated Solid wood, and weigh about 1.5#
The blade is 14" wide by 16” long with a 9.5” handle. From handle to end (scooping tip), the peel measures 24"
It's a perfect length, short-handled peel and it is tapered down to the front of the blade, which allows its user to scoop up pizzas, loaves of bread, etc.
#2080 Napoletana-Style Italian Pizza Peel 20" handle $64.99
These peels are of the highest quality and are the lightest pizza peels in the world!
In Naples, they make the pizza on a marble counter top and then “drag” the pie from the counter to the peel.
This peel is perforated, which allows most of the flour to fall from the bottom of the pizza, as it is scooped onto the peel, and before it enters the oven. Thus promoting a cleaner oven.
Weighing in less than 1 pound, the peel head measures 13” across and a white anodized aluminum alloy head. The handle is 20” long, and a light-blue anodized aluminum handle – which cools down quickly.

#2130 Laser & Probe Gourmet Thermometer $84.99
It’s important to know the temperature of ones oven… as well as a finished loaf of bread. This tool can help with both. At the risk of sounding like a salesman… It’s two tools in one!
There are lots of thermometers out there... but this one causes less clutter. Use the Laser to measure the temperature of your oven, then use the prob (conveniently positioned) to measure the temperature of your foods and bread! (Remember, if bread loaves are not cooked fully, they will result in a doughy loaf. I bake my bread to at least 205 degrees.)
Our laser - probe combo thermometer quickly and accurately measures surface temperatures and internal meat temperatures for perfect cooking results every time. Laser targeting feature pinpoints exact temperature without touching the surface of your oven, pan, BBQ or utensil - and the stainless steel probe is used to take internal temperatures. Also features a easy to read backlit LCD temperature readout.

* Laser technology measures temperature quickly
* Stainless Steel probe takes temperatures internally
* Easy to read LCD

#5020 Tools are Made, Born are Hands - E-book $26.95
Many people have travelled to Mary G's Artisan Breads to attend the Introductory and Whole Grains wood fired bread baking workshops. They've come from across the United States, Canada, and as far afield as New Zealand and England. Frequently, they asked for a book-length document that recreates what Mary G’s workshop’s offer. Tools Are Made, Born Are Hands is the result. It's based on thousands of hours working with our wood fired oven, plus the input, questions and concerns of hundreds of students: experienced, professionals and beginners alike.
Through 272 pages, 182 photographs, and six chapters, you'll learn the history of these fascinating and enduring ovens, follow a typical two-day workshop in detail, then explore the various oven shapes, types and building methods to select your own. A clear, unbiased investigation of oven types does not exist in print--until now. Throughout, myths are dispelled, little-known tips provided and results-oriented methods explained. Far too much mystery has surrounded true artisan baking. Not here.
How about an authentic Neapolitan pizza baked for ninety seconds on a 750 degree hearth? This book shows you how.
From theory to practical, hands-on techniques, from ingredients to equipment, from wild to commercial yeasts, hearth breads to sweet breads, from preparing to firing and baking, you'll gather the information you need to make genuine artisan breads in a wood fired environment--or even in a home oven. This is exactly the kind of detailed look at real hand-made breads that is not available anywhere else. We know, we checked.
This is a book of method, not hundreds of bewildering recipes. As we tell our students, once you master the recipes in Tools Are Made, Born Are Hands, you will have the ability to approach any formula with confidence, whether you have a wood fired oven or not.
Tools Are Made, Born Are Hands is available in pdf format that can be read with Adobe Reader, Adobe Digital Editions (both free programs) or on most book readers. The PDF file will be emailed to you. If you require a copy on CD, please make that notation within FG pizza’s checkout system.

The second filter traps sub-micron particles (ash) and has a special snap spring assembly allowing for easier cleaning. The Ash-Vac features a 5' flame-resistant hose, 3-gallon capacity container, and a powerful 6-amp motor. Comes with a one year warranty and includes one set of filters. This unit is 20" high, has a 1-1/4" diameter hose opening, and holds up to 3 gallons of ash.
• Patented double filter system

#2077 Classic Wooden Baker's Peel - with detachable handle $33.00
My uncle used one at Cardinale Bakery in Pittsburg, CA. His had a handle of 12-14 feet.
These peels are for the classic baker that enjoys a wooden feel, needs a long handle, and is tough on blades.
