Pizza Dough from Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/user/nchiker)

Dough Recipe:
Bread Flour: 16 1/2 oz. (just over 3 cups)
Ice Water: 10.3 oz. (about 1 1/8 cups)
Sugar: 7 tsp
Kosher or Sea Salt: 1 tsp
Yeast: 1 1/2 tsp
Vegetable or olive Oil: 1 tbs
Dusting flour: For all the dusting, I use half bread flour, half semolina flour. You can use what you want.
Directions:
• In mixing bowl, mix together flour, sugar, yeast.
• While mixing with flat paddle, slowly poor ice water into dry mixture.
• Let stand for 10 minutes+ (allows yeast to interact with water)
• Add kosher salt and olive oil. Hand knead until combined.
• Roll into a ball.
• Place in oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit for 12-24 hours. If 24 hours, first 12 in the fridge.
An hour before preparing the pizza, put dough onto floured surface. Cut into two pieces. Pull the sides up and in until the bottom side resembles a dough ball. Flip over so that the clean looking side is on top and place onto floured cookie sheet. Lightly flour top, and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise for about an hour before flattening out and preparing pizza.
If using pizza steel:
• Place pizza steel on rungs second from the top.
• Preheat oven to highest temperature (550° for mine). Let sit for 1 hour
• 10 minutes before putting pizza in, turn off oven, and turn on the oven broiler (makes steel even hotter.)
• Once pizza is prepared, launch it into the steel with a pizza peel. Let cook for 5 minutes flat, take out and bask in the glory of your better-than-delivery pizza!

sauce recipe. Here it is if you need it:
1 can diced tomatoes (14.5 oz.)
1 can tomato paste (4 oz.)
1 Tbs Olive Oil or Vegetable Oil
2 tsp sugar
3/4 tsp dried oregano
1/3 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp dried basil (or 2 medium basil leaves)
Throw it all in a blender and blend until uniform with texture, NOT pureed. Oatmeal-ish consistency.
Good luck! Hope it goes well!
