HyperX Media & Surefire Pizza

Surefire Pizza owners, Jeffrey & Melissa Whitehead, were gracious enough to treat the HyperX Media office to some authentic Italian pizza for lunch on Wednesday, November 30th.

Jeffrey and Melissa drove out their mobile,  5,000 pound wood-fired oven and began to make Chicken Pesto pizzas, Margherita pizzas and good old fashioned, Pepperoni pizza.    It was a great way to spend the last day of November 2011.  For more  luncheon images, visit the HyperX Media Facebook Fan page.

Wood-fired Oven - Hot Pizza in the Cold!

Surefire Pizza uses a Valoriani wood-fired oven imported from Italy and mounted onto a custom built trailer. Using seasoned hard wood, they fire the oven between 750-900 degrees.

It usually takes about an hour to get the oven up to temperature. Though once heated up, they’re able to cook pizzas in around 90 seconds.

Surefire Pizza’s pizza is handmade and cooked the way it’s been done in Naples for generations. The pizza is fragrant, thin, and soft with a slightly crispy crust.

Surefire Pizza uses the best imported and local ingredients we can. They use Caputo flour imported from Naples, Italy and San Marzano style tomatoes that are simply crushed with sea salt added.

They also use imported Parmigiano Reggiano and domestic “fior di latte” fresh mozzarella cheese. Their basil, pesto, and alfredo sauce are all produced locally.
