    If you wrap the dough, you know, the crust will only glow, and the things inside with a place to hide will not burn but instead learn the way to be tasty.

    Yeasted dough does not need warmth to proof, in the woods, you have the help of wild yeasties that gang up on the dough and make it even better...so leave it out to proof on your picnic table and once its double in size, flatten w/a rock, use that same rock on the fire: brace it on top so it gets REALLY hot (sedimentary rocks blow up). then put the calzone on top with a lid, cook it for like 20 minutes to an hour depending on size of calzone and fire. After you eat it, put the rock in your tent without the bottom and pour water all over it and you get a calzone flavored sweat lodge!

    I lived in tunisia, and the berbers there make breads in the sand. maybe this is how you can try!


    they make a fire in the sands, then prepare the dough, flour, yeast, salt, water.
    The fire burns and thus heats up the ground. then the fire dies, but you still have the glowing ashes and the hot sand. they dig a small hole, right where the fire was, put the flattened out dough pieces into the sand (with no cover) cover it with the hot sand and ashes, and leave it there for 30-45 minutes.

    since the crust of the bread becomes really hard, the sands fall off when knocked on a piece of wood.

    with your pizza, maybe try it with a calzone (fold in half pizza, sort of a "filled" pizza) and wrap in in aluminum foil, as mentioned above.

    but aren't there better things to cook in a campfire then a pizza? you can have pizza at home.......
