Care for a little pizza while you are hanging out? The Pizza Genie is just the place situated right on the property. They even have gluten-free options. Ron Tippet is The Pizza Genie and does his magic inside the trailer complete with an oven that cooks at about 650-750 degrees!

Meet Ron and his apprentice Sean

 

Gluten-free pizzas are cooked on a Copper Chef grill mat that can withstand over 900 degrees. Gluten-free ingredients are kept in containers inside a small refrigerator to avoid cross-contamination with the ingredients on the line. Ron even makes his own gluten-free pizza dough.

There is a separate sauce and ladle as well as mozzarella for the gluten-free pizzas. I decided to try the Rustic Pizza with a garlic base Roasted Chicken, Fresh Tomatoes, Mozzarella, and then topped with fresh basil. Ron grows Russian White Garlic in his own garden for the garlic base sauce in the Rustic Pizza. The gluten-free Pizza Peel (the wooden handled paddle) is marked specifically for gluten-free pizzas. Again, he is careful about cross-contamination.

The Pizza Genie trailer stays put on the Rustic Ridge Winery property unless Ron has some specific events to travel to in the Cooperstown area.
