Caribbean wood-fire pizza would be your traditional
Neapolitan-style pizza with your Caribbean toppings.
Initially, we were thinking to go traditional Neapolitan-style.
We tried and we totally scrapped it,
and it's like, "Let's do what we know, use our background,
and throw it inside the pizza."
So, venturing into Caribbean toppings
was a little scary,
but after we tested it, we was like,
"This absolutely worked. Let's just go for it."
So I think as more Caribbean people eat it,
subconsciously, they don't even know why they like it,
but it's what they been eating for many, many years --
just wood-fire stuff.
- - Wow.
Honestly, this is better than Buffalo chicken pizza.
This is a whole different beast. And
a lot like Buffalo chicken, it's spicy, but
you know, jerk seasoning, it's also a little like sweet,
and the corn on there, too, also
adds another bite of sweetness,
and it's just this crazy sweet & spicy
that's going on.
Everyone loves a New York slice, but
there's something about Neapolitan pizza that
is so easy to eat.
I mean, you have a slice,
you're just taking it down in one bite.
I don't think I'd have any problem finishing
this whole pie, but I do wanna break into this
oxtail pizza that I've heard so much about,
and I'm very excited for.
Look at all that cheese.
It's like there was a snowstorm of cheese
that just came down on this pizza: it is awesome.
Let's break off this slice.
I don't know what to say other than this is awesome.
It's not like any pizza I've ever had before.
Wow. You know, I think I've figured out what is so unique
about this pizza, and it's the fact that the oxtail
is cooked for five hours and sort of stewed and
and just really broken down.
It isn't something that's just been crisped up,
thrown in, and let the oven do the work.
It adds this whole different texture and dimension of flavor
that I've never had on pizza before. It's really unique.
Let's get into this.
Wow.
That is another flavor combo I've never had
on top of a pizza before.
How often have you had fish on a pizza?
Probably never, and this rocks.
Salted fish, it's a very common breakfast food on the islands.
Here they make it more like the Trinidadian style,
and there's something about breakfast food
that's comforting to everyone when
you're really familiar with it.
When you see it on a pizza, you stop, you scratch your head,
and you're like, "I don't -- I don't know about that."
But then you have it and you're like,
"How did this not exist before? This is like a
match made in heaven."
So good.
(Offscreen) Do you wanna try some of our homemade hot sauce with that?
- - I mean, twist my arm. Let's do it.
They also make their own hot sauce here. It's a
fruit and Scotch bonnet mix. Let's give it a shot.
I'm a little nervous.
Get that crust in there.
Might have already taken too much. Heh.
Whoa.
If you come here, go easy on the hot sauce. It is no joke.
They should be bottling this up and selling it everywhere.
It's delicious but I'm already sweating. This is... It's a lot.
Yo, let me get that water.
Well, I'm gonna try and cool off a little bit
after this hot sauce, but
