Same Dirt Road Cookers name - Different State - Different menu

Dirt Road Cookers BBQ restaurant in Navarre, FL is different ownership than Dirt Road Cookers in Texas.

If you are ever in the panhandle of Florida you have to check them out. Lee, DR and Brian Hannon say their BBQ is real good, but it's more like AWESOME!

SAN ANTONIO -- A Texas company is going to try to set the world record for the largest commercially-available pizza.

On Saturday, the Dirt Road Cookers will be baking a massive 46-square-foot pie at the Guinness World Records Museum across the street from the Alamo.

Chef Kurt Oefinger, who leads to Hondo-based catering team, said they will be busting out their custom made oven to cook a total of four pizzas, all which will be available to spectators.

The first pizza will be ready by noon; the second at 2 p.m.; the third at 5 p.m.; and the fourth at 7 p.m.

Oefinger and his team like to get creative with the toppings. Each pizza will be a little different from one another in toppings and design -- or even shape.

for the largest commercially-available pizza. His team of eight people will work on an 8-foot pizza from 10 a.m. to noon Aug. 3

at the Guinness World Records Museum, 329 Alamo Plaza (across from the Alamo).
According to the press release, “Oefinger has a massive custom-made, wood-fired pizza oven that he uses to create giant pizzas

 for parties and special events. Ingredients for this world record attempt will include 40 pounds of dough, 10 pounds of sauce,

24 pounds of cheese and 8 pounds of pepperoni. The current record is about 4 ½ feet by 4 ½ feet.”

World's Largest Pizza Attempt: Free Pizza For Onlookers August 3, 2013

 

San Antonio may soon have the Guinness Book of World Records title for the home of the World's Largest Pizza -- and you could help eat a few slices for free!

On Saturday, August 3, Dirt Road Cookers will attempt to beat the existing world record for making, baking, and serving the largest commercially-available pizza.


The attempt will take place from 10am to noon at Guinness World Records Museum, which is downtown directly across from the Alamo.

And once the pizza has been judged by Guinness officials, Dirt Road Cookers will slice it up and pass it away to anyone who came out to cheer them team on!

There doesn't appear to be any limits on slices per attendee -- because let's face it, judging from the promotional photo, there will probably be more than enough to go around.
