The Curly Stu

The Curly Stu, Based in Co Cork and was set up by professional chef Stuart Bowes who has over 25 years experience working in Michelin star restaurants and 5 star Hotels. Stuart started his obsession with making Neapolitan style pizzas in 2018 He bought a wood fired oven and started perfecting his craft selling pizzas on Monday evening’s in a rural pub using the finest of Italian and Irish ingredients. The Neapolitan pizzas were well received and very quickly word got around, resulting in Stuart restoring a horse box and making his business mobile in 2020.

His main focus is and has always been on the dough. He started using a sourdough culture to make his pizza dough and has since changed to a pre ferment method using poolish which is made the day before mixing dough resulting in maximum flavor but more importantly, A fully digestible and light pizza.
The pizzas are all cooked in under 90 seconds between 400-450 degrees celsius. And the only way that we can turn out large sums of pizzas with such speed and consistency is by using the best ovens in the market...
