Best Grilled Vegetables: Charred & Crispy Guide | Arteflame
Learn the best veggies for grilling—plus times, temps, and pro tips—optimized for Arteflame heat zones for perfect char and flavor every time.
Finding the perfect slice in Davie isn't just about satisfying a craving; it's about discovering the local craftsmanship that goes into the perfect dough-to-sauce ratio. Whether you are hunting for a classic New York fold or a crispy coal-fired crust, the city offers an impressive array of pizzerias that locals swear by. We spent weeks tasting our way through the city to bring you this definitive list. However, while takeout is convenient, we discovered that the ultimate pizza experience actually happens in your own backyard. In this guide, we break down where to buy the best pies and how to replicate—and surpass—that restaurant quality using high-heat grilling techniques.
Based on our taste tests, here are the standout performers that consistently deliver:
1. The Coal-Fired Classic: Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza
In our testing, the char on these wings and pies is unbeatable. If you like a crust that snaps when you fold it, this is your spot. The high heat of their oven locks in flavor, similar to how we cook on the Arteflame.
2. The NY Authentic: Manhattan NY Pizza
We found this to be the closest thing to a Midtown slice in the area. The slices are huge, foldable, and the sauce has that traditional tang.
3. The Local Gem: Pizza Loft
For a more rustic feel, this spot delivered exceptional consistency. Their toppings are generous without weighing down the center of the pie.
| Restaurant | Best For | Price Level | Signature Style |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anthony's | Crisp Enthusiasts | $$ | Coal-Fired Well Done |
| Manhattan NY | Lunch on the go | $ | Classic NY Fold |
| Pizza Loft | Family Dinner | $$ | Rustic & Hearty |
I used to think my home-baked pizzas were decent, until I realized I was essentially baking them in a dry box rather than fire-roasting them. The moment I switched to an open fire, the difference in crust texture was undeniable. You can absolutely achieve that steakhouse or pizzeria quality right on your patio.
Why does restaurant pizza taste better? It's the heat. Home ovens max out at 500°F, but professional ovens—and the Arteflame—go much higher. Here is why the Arteflame excels:
Pro Tip: If you don't have time to make dough from scratch, head to the Costco nearby in Davie. We found that buying their fresh, unbaked pizzas gives you a fantastic base. Bring it home, add your own premium toppings, and fire it on the Arteflame Pizza Oven for a customized, wood-fired upgrade that tastes homemade.
An Arteflame grill isn't just for cooking; it changes how you host. Its round design invites friends to stand around the fire rather than waiting on the patio while you cook alone against a wall. We've found that pizza night becomes an interactive event where guests can watch the fire, customize their toppings, and enjoy the warmth of the grill together, turning a simple meal into a memorable gathering.
