I have had one of those for about 10 years now. Mine is a “ Super Peel “ although he may no longer be making them. It is a little more refined, made of solid white ash I believe and the end is tapered down to a sharper edge. The transfer material on mine is linen much like a Bakers Couche. It slides very easily in both directions. Since I cook my pizza’s in a Blackstone Pizza oven at around 700 F I use it to pick up the pizza off the counter and lay it on a wooden launching peel dusted with cornmeal. I then use a metal peel once it is under the flame and to retrieve it. I was tired of the odd pizza accordioning when trying to get under it off the counter and this method works every time.
I make my pizzas on parchment paper. Easy to move onto the pan, and back onto the counter, for cutting after baking. No mess, no dishes, and throw the parchment paper away for easy clean up.
I used to make on parchment, put the pizza including the parchment on a preheated stone, and 2 minutes later free the paper out from under the pizza when the dough was cooked enough so it wouldn't stick. That method saved me the pain of the transfer into the oven.
@@TracyKMainwaring I actually have one of those gas outdoor pizza ovens now, they are awesome. It took some practice mastering the transfer from the peel into the oven but it wasn't too hard. No more parchment. My wife tells me I make a better pizza now than anything we can buy locally.
Team Parchment Paper reporting in. I actually have an Unold electric pizza oven that's good for 400C/750F though I rarely go above 370C for the pizzas I make (I'm not into Neapolitan). Even so you got to be fast or the parchment paper will disintegrate. Slide it in and wait no more than 2 minutes before pulling the pizza back out, give it a 180 degree turn and slide it back in, off the paper.
I think using it to clean up spills is more impressive than the pizza peel use, perhaps it could be redesigned to pick up spills than being a pizza peel. And the build quality needs to be better. Fun video as always!
@@MyFocusVaries yea XD i don't get why someone would use it to clean spills when it's much more efficient to just clean it normally... because in the end you're just going to clean the paddle the same way you would clean the table, you're just adding more steps to it xD
The material that they're using as the actual pizza slider appears to be Teflon. It's got the same colour and texture as the sheets that McDonald's uses on their grill presses for their cooking- it also frays and deforms the same if it gets snagged, so that's what I would assume. Very much heatproof, but yes, also fragile, especially if it gets pinched and caught on things.
Interesting design- I can see how it "should" work, but also why it doesn't really. Eventually, someone might tweak the operations/materials so it's actually a useful product, but meanwhile, I'll just bake my pizza in a standard pizza pan. Also, I don't need something the size of a cookie sheet, taking up space in my cupboards, just to pick up spilled sriracha or sauce; a facecloth takes up much less space and has far more uses. Love you, Emmy!
it's frustrating to see, because you can see how easily it could be made way better, but they made it the cheapest way possible and now it's basically useless.
A much larger version of this concept is used to load/unload ovens in industrial bakeries; the one in my pastry school was 6ish feet long and 2.5 wide? The fabric conveyor is closer to a thick canvas baker's couche, and it runs around rollers, just like a factory conveyor belt. You load it up with baguettes or boulles or whatver, floured dough directly onto the fabric, the whole conveyor slides into the oven, and then you 'roll' it back out, with the conveyor simultaneously retracting and scrolling to drop off the loaves as it comes out. I think some of them can also empty ovens, but we snagged out finished loaves individually with a long handled (longer than a broom) metal peel. If you're curious, the channel @sarmasikmakina has a short demonstration video of a similae setup.
@@phonotical what are you talking about? There are mineral oils specifically made for wooden cutting boards to prevent them from damage caused by absorbing moisture. They’re safe.
I've got a plastic pizza cutter that was a free promotional item. I think it has the name of a bank on it. It works really well! I've had it for like 20 years!
I got myself one a few months agoo. and was surprised how well it worked. But ive manage to fray the sides of it so I dont know how long its gonna last. Saw you could buy extra replacment mats to it though.
@@kyleschlichter3815 minte is wood and i dont se any dust or anything from the fabric fray. and It works perfectly. I had no issue getting the hang of it right away. I think it rocks.
I have had a peel like this for over ten years, however mine is a high quality wooden peel with an easily detachable canvas couche as the conveyor belt. It's fantastic! I don't use it for pizza, as it is too big for my little pizza oven, but it works amazingly well for transferring unruly breads like baguettes and epis and fugas. The couche can also be used for proofing baguettes.
I would probably not consider that food safe. Emmy is spot on about the laser cutting, and the sheet is PRFE-coated fiberglass fabric. The whole assembly is done in a Shenzhen maker space rather than a full factory
In my household, we build the pizza directly into a pan then we shove the entire thing into an oven. When it's done, we cut it and remove it from the pan piece by piece. We usually use aluminum pans for this job.
Omg I'm sorry. My mom is going down that road. Brother has stage 4, her mom is almost 90 and has Parkinson's, her husband has dementia, they had to get rid of all the animals on their ranch bc she can't do all the work on her own. Down from about 50, to 2 horses and their dogs. It's just keeps piling on. And she's got a million health problems. I'm sending you love.
Emmy! If you don't like your basil going "dark" on your pizza when you cook it, try putting the basil under the cheese. I personally think basil tastes better on pizza if it's cooked. This also works to keep fresh spinach from darkening as much or burning from the high temps you cook pizza at.
I recently bought the same thing off Amazon, but mine was plastic… Also horrible build quality. However, it did work fantastic for picking up pizzas that had stuck to the counter and were difficult to get up with a peel. However, it won’t last long because it does not stand up to the temperatures of a pizza oven.
Really cute invention… hope the makers see your video and take some tips!! Cold chicken/tuna salad are my veggie clean the fridge… or soup, if it’s winter.
I mean, who needs the extra work when making a pizza. I usually make pizza for a quick meal, not trying to learn how to use an overly complicated gadget. Enjoy your videos Emmy!
Cornmeal dusted under the crust after it is rolled/ kneaded out but before toppings. Quickly slide a thin metal pizza peel underneath. Works everytime, easy, and made to be in hot environs.
Classico makes a pretty decent pizza sauce. I have always found it at Walmart. For the most part, it's not a chunky sauce, but you will find the occasional piece or small chunk of tomato.
I realize there is a big difference in fresh made and frozen pizza results. I use a flat baking sheet to slide under the pizza and a peel I guess. Using pot holders the pizza comes out easily and slides onto the cutting board. I feel like no gadgety peels is a good thing. Thank you for testing it. You saved me money especially since my husband calls me The Gadget Queen.
there are similar large scale versions of these used to load a lot of dough and pull out a lot of product from bread ovens (that are not baked on trays), they are called manual dough loaders
Emmy, I would love to see some gluten free baking experiments! My mom is allergic to wheat and it's my job to bring dessert on Sundays, so I'm always looking for more GF dessert ideas. I've had a lot of luck with the King Arthur cup-for-cup GF flour blends in my normal recipes. There's a blend for breads and yeasted recipes, and another for everything else. A gluten free series would be great for us, and great for you since you wouldn't have to taste test so much wheat 😁
I've only ever seen these used to pick up sauce off of the counter in tiktok videos. I feel like that advertising push came after the "ketchup test" trend started, so maybe it was a response to that
Pretty sure the "sauce" in those videos is fake and made of silicone. Just based on how shiny they are and the fact that just moving the sauce would warp the shape a little bit, liquidy sauce just won't perfectly hold its shape.
@@OrbObserver Emmy just tested it out. The ketchup in those videos aren't fake. This pizza peeler works really well at scraping up non-Newtonian fluids.
Yeah, that seems to be an accurate assessment to me. Wonder how many other products like this got popular for one thing, then pushed/mismarketed for other uses? I know Fidget Spinners were originally for people with a specific attention disorder (I don't recall exactly)
Great review, Emmy! I also use Monterrey Jack interchangeably in Italian dishes. It melts just as well and if anything only adds a little more seasoning flavor-wise. I often refer to it as Mexican Mozzerella when the name Monterrey Jack escapes me, lol. Thanks for another great video. Have a great week!
The material is teflon. Before silpats, you could buy sheets of teflon to line baking pans. It's also good when hot glueing things. Excess glue just slides off.
This type of device has been around for probably 25-30 years originating as the "super peel" with somewhat better build quality. For at least the last 20+ years their marketing has consisted mostly of having people "discover" it and rave about how easy it is to use. The original just had a canvas belt but they do currently have nonstick models. So, this one is a cheap knockoff of the $80 superpeel. The oddest thing about the superpeel website is that the image splashed across their front page has a pizza sitting on parchment paper, which is a much simpler and more straightforward way of transferring pizza.
@@EricJorgensen okay. I'm still referring to the one in the vid it does feel like a prototype. Thanks for your 🤓 well actually comment. Good for you know it all. Don't really care not something I would actually buy
It’s actually super hilarious that this is like a trend right now because I used to work in a sourdough bread bakery years ago ,and when they made the new brick fire oven the loader was basically just a giant version of this tool
I take a piece of parchment a tiny bit more than double the length of the business part of the peel, stretch out dough, place on the paper all the way to one side, sauce/top pizza, easily slide peel under paper with pizza on top, then at that point the other half of paper is hanging off front of peel, kinda like a tounge. Grab peel handle with one hand and other hand grabs paper from underneath peel, hold the paper back by you parallel with peel, get it over and on the stone, and start to pull the paper you're holding and move peel back in sync with the conveyor action. Takes a little practice but works great!
There are industrial ovens that have giant conveyer belt/peel devices very similar to this. I use to work an oven that had one but it was broken so I never used it. I just used a regular old peel however I have seen some that are functional and it’s a really cool & clever design.
I use meat in place of the dough! I use a pound of ground chicken or turkey, I add some parmigian cheese, an egg and some italian seasoning, mix it well and flatten it out on a cookie sheet, bake it for 15-20 minutes @350° then when it's done, take it out, add all your toppings and then pop it back in the oven to cook off the toppings.
After watching this, I'm very glad I spent extra ($80) for the ItalX version of the same style of peel. I make a margherita pizza, complete with the tall cornicione crust full of air. But, I'm pretty hopeless at using the metal peel. The ItalX conveyor peel was a complete game changer for me. But, it is expensive. However, we don't ever buy commercial pizza anymore, and we don't miss it at all!
I am a new subscriber and I must say you are absolutely charming and I love your videos. Keep giving us more cheerful Recipies and interesting gadgets!
i dont know what the non stick material is but it seems like if you were transferring onto a 800 degree pizza stone it might melt? It looks a bit like plastic? I had someonewhat hope for this one. Thanks for showing us.
The material of the slide is a Teflon tape. It's used in food preparation factories to allow smooth sliding of plastic films used to make the bags your snacks come in, like potato chips. Heat will not damage it at all.
That brown sheet is a reusable parchment "paper". It is designed to be use in the oven but not with this wooden contraption. I got it cuz I read parchment paper contains pfas or pfoa forever chemicals.
The only device that I was aware of like this was the Super Peel that was demonstrated on America's Test Kitchen several years ago. They didn't have any problems using it in the video demonstration. The super peel had a better construction, and I believe it was a fabric belt. It was all super easy to use. I don't know what they paid back then, but when you said $20, I knew this would not go very well. It is clear that since the super peel came out, as happens in general, but especially on Amazon, there have been a suffocating glut of copycat items that are inferior. It costs them so little to make that even with Amazon's cut, it follows the as seen on TV model that people buy it then discard it because it was cheap and they had their fun. This harms people like the super peel people because you say these don't work, and you tested the garbage version. So people take that to mean the concept is bad and no point in buying the good one that costs more where the company is more invested in the quality and support of their product. That certainly demotivates people to make quality products or even maintain their own principles.
I would love to see a video of you showing off the best 5 gadgets for cooking you own? Even if you have made a video about each one on their own, I would love to see a video listing and retrying them for the fun of it.
I had a much nicer one many years ago. The “belt” was canvas that got a generous sprinkle of flour. But the idea was to build the pizza on the belt and use the belt to slide it onto the pizza stone. However, one issue was that there wasn’t much taper at the end of the board. That would have worked much easier to take the baked pizza out. Looks like yours needs that taper too!
I just wanna say thank you. I recently compared you to Mr. Rogers and I need to tell you that I had the worst, most passive-aggressive workday today, and for the first time I've stopped ruminating and playing it over in my head. It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood...again. As a former pizza chef, and amateur woodworker however...Firm Nope on the peelie dealie. Good job though!
I've seen a video of a professional bakery using this concept on a much bigger scale and with what I think is a canvas-mlike material. Or maybe whatever they make a couche from. And it worked beautifully zinging those boules in and out one after the other. I think maybe workmanship and materials make a big difference.
That's a teflon sheet and should stand up to a fair amount of heat. I use one of those with my Cricut press or heat presses. It seems like the teflon sheet should have been a bit tighter (not tight but tighter) and that is why it jammed.
My son got one for me, and Oops, the peel was upside down! Ended up with a mess lol! Lesson learned...I won't make that mistake again! Other than that, it was nice! Wish it was a 16" slide peel install of 12"!
If they actually manufacture this product using quality materials and care to the design it might actually be good addition to a kitchen that cooks pizzas often 🤔🍕
I could see it more for picking up spills and etc. like let’s say you dropped your last egg on the counter, you could use it to scoop it up and transfer it?? I don’t know lol
I think it looks cheap, and I had my fingers crossed that it would work. You have the same small tabletop oven that I have.Not sure what it is called in the US.
It's most likely Silpat as the material, but yeah, that is too loose on there to slide smoothly, but that's what happens when something's made down to a very profitible cost, still impressive with the sauce pickup though... :)
So, based on the length of your playlist, you've got gadgets and gizmos aplenty, but do you have whosits and whatsits galore?
You want thingamabobs? I've got 20! But who cares, no big deal, I want moooore!

I use a pound of ground chicken or turkey, I add some parmigian cheese, an egg and some italian seasoning, mix it well and flatten it out on a cookie sheet, bake it for 15-20 minutes @350° then when it's done, take it out, add all your toppings and then pop it back in the oven to cook off the toppings.
I could see this being super useful for early childhood teachers when paint spills! Not sure about the actual pizza usage
I have to say, my step mom is Japanese, you remind me of her…..she is forever trying to feed everyone…it’s so cute
After watching this, I'm very glad I spent extra ($80) for the ItalX version of the same style of peel. I make a margherita pizza, complete with the tall cornicione crust full of air. But, I'm pretty hopeless at using the metal peel. The ItalX conveyor peel was a complete game changer for me. But, it is expensive. However, we don't ever buy commercial pizza anymore, and we don't miss it at all!
ok, the sauce part blew my mind LOL i didnt think it'd work!!
I first saw this as a little robot that can do it! Funny that the non-robot version came second
Love when you test out things!🤩🥰
I have been looking into buying one of these. This video couldn't have come at a more opportune time.
I think it would be handy for big spills; for example, if you dropped a big glass jar full of marinara. It would make it an easier clean up.
You can accomplish the same thing with a rimless baking sheet and parchment, and just slide the parchment onto the baking surface ☺️
I am a new subscriber and I must say you are absolutely charming and I love your videos. Keep giving us more cheerful Recipies and interesting gadgets!
i dont know what the non stick material is but it seems like if you were transferring onto a 800 degree pizza stone it might melt? It looks a bit like plastic? I had someonewhat hope for this one. Thanks for showing us.
Please tell me more about the pizza steel / stone for the breville
Emmy is so
apPEALing ❤
Lovely video 📹 Emmy! Pizza 🍕 is the best! 🥰
Just one more bite! You make a pretty pizza, Emmy ❣️
Emmy you make our hearts happy ❤
Agree❤
The material of the slide is a Teflon tape. It's used in food preparation factories to allow smooth sliding of plastic films used to make the bags your snacks come in, like potato chips. Heat will not damage it at all.
That brown sheet is a reusable parchment "paper". It is designed to be use in the oven but not with this wooden contraption. I got it cuz I read parchment paper contains pfas or pfoa forever chemicals.
The only device that I was aware of like this was the Super Peel that was demonstrated on America's Test Kitchen several years ago. They didn't have any problems using it in the video demonstration. The super peel had a better construction, and I believe it was a fabric belt. It was all super easy to use. I don't know what they paid back then, but when you said $20, I knew this would not go very well. It is clear that since the super peel came out, as happens in general, but especially on Amazon, there have been a suffocating glut of copycat items that are inferior. It costs them so little to make that even with Amazon's cut, it follows the as seen on TV model that people buy it then discard it because it was cheap and they had their fun. This harms people like the super peel people because you say these don't work, and you tested the garbage version. So people take that to mean the concept is bad and no point in buying the good one that costs more where the company is more invested in the quality and support of their product. That certainly demotivates people to make quality products or even maintain their own principles.
THESE are the questions I need answered.
But what about red wine on carpet?!
We have a double layer pizza pan that works beautifully. Make the pizza directly on it, pop it in the oven, and we get great crust every time! K
I would love to see a video of you showing off the best 5 gadgets for cooking you own? Even if you have made a video about each one on their own, I would love to see a video listing and retrying them for the fun of it.
I had a much nicer one many years ago. The “belt” was canvas that got a generous sprinkle of flour.
But the idea was to build the pizza on the belt and use the belt to slide it onto the pizza stone.
However, one issue was that there wasn’t much taper at the end of the board. That would have worked much easier to take the baked pizza out.
Looks like yours needs that taper too!
Hi Emmy ❤ what brand oven are you using ? Thank you
I just wanna say thank you. I recently compared you to Mr. Rogers and I need to tell you that I had the worst, most passive-aggressive workday today, and for the first time I've stopped ruminating and playing it over in my head.
It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood...again.
As a former pizza chef, and amateur woodworker however...Firm Nope on the peelie dealie. Good job though!
I've seen a video of a professional bakery using this concept on a much bigger scale and with what I think is a canvas-mlike material. Or maybe whatever they make a couche from. And it worked beautifully zinging those boules in and out one after the other. I think maybe workmanship and materials make a big difference.
The only thing i ca think of that i would use this for is picking up dropped broken eggs, might be good for that mess. Maybe just me.
But it's like putting it on another surface you'll have to clean anyway
Pouring a lot of salt on a dropped egg helps it solidify and makes clean up much easier. And is cheaper than this thing!
That's a teflon sheet and should stand up to a fair amount of heat. I use one of those with my Cricut press or heat presses. It seems like the teflon sheet should have been a bit tighter (not tight but tighter) and that is why it jammed.
Emmy, please return the pizza gadget and get your money back. The pizza looks great. Thank you for the review 💜
Yeah, that thing is a hard pass lol. I have the thin metal pizza peel, and we have an understanding 😂
Ty Emmy for doing this so we don't have to ❤
Great video Emmy
I think this is a cheap knockoff of the original--not to say that it is in any way useful. Nice demo, Emmy!
I was going to say the same. This one is definitely not the original. Like you said, a cheap knock off home made version of the original
My son got one for me, and Oops, the peel was upside down! Ended up with a mess lol! Lesson learned...I won't make that mistake again! Other than that, it was nice! Wish it was a 16" slide peel install of 12"!
Hi I have a question on that plastic piece doesn't it get burnt when you're transferring the pizza to a hot stone thanks
I worry about the food safeness of that plywood.
Pizza is the lords food. 🙌
If they actually manufacture this product using quality materials and care to the design it might actually be good addition to a kitchen that cooks pizzas often 🤔🍕
Omg that's wild it picked up that Sarachia sauce 😳 😮❤❤❤❤
Wow that was cool (the Sriracha part) lol
Ok I'm wondering if it would pick up a dropped egg; those are a pain to clean up
May I know what type of little oven you are using? Mahalo!
I could see it more for picking up spills and etc. like let’s say you dropped your last egg on the counter, you could use it to scoop it up and transfer it?? I don’t know lol
I think it looks cheap, and I had my fingers crossed that it would work. You have the same small tabletop oven that I have.Not sure what it is called in the US.
I work at a wood fire brick oven pizza restaurant. Seems like a cool concept. But I don't think it could handle the job lol
Where'd the pizza steel come from? Id like one for my countertop oven, but im worried about the weight being too much.
Americas test kitchen highly recommends one of these. Maybe check that particular one out. It’s probably better.
A friend of mine bought one of these thinking it would change his life. Broke it the first day. I look for his next purchase to be an electric rake.
OMGee, if that would work for oil spills, LOL!!!!! I'd be all over it, hahah!!!!!! That was WILD though, OMGEEE!
That veggie pizza looks so good❤
It's most likely Silpat as the material, but yeah, that is too loose on there to slide smoothly, but that's what happens when something's made down to a very profitible cost, still impressive with the sauce pickup though... :)
