Tyrell Reed Episode 40

Mastering Pizza & Culinary Excellence with Chef Dan Czuba

In this episode of The Pizza King Podcast, I sit down with Chef Dan Czuba from the North American Pizza and Culinary Academy in Lisle, Illinois. From fine dining to fast-casual, Chef Dan has done it all, and he shares his journey from nearly dropping out of high school to becoming a master instructor in the pizza world.

We dive into the art and science of pizza making, the evolution of the restaurant industry, and the hard lessons learned from years in the kitchen. Dan also shares insights on equipment selection, dough fermentation, and why the “angry chef” culture is a thing of the past. Plus, we talk about his upcoming Pizza Expo appearance and the cutting-edge innovations shaping the future of pizza.

Whether you're a seasoned pizzeria operator or just passionate about pizza, this episode is packed with valuable takeaways. Don't miss it!
