Wood-Fired Pizza Party Chef
Live-Fire Pizza, Handcrafted Dough, and Full Service — in Your Backyard
A wood-fired pizza party is the most fun thing we cook. Our dedicated pizza chef fires the oven on site, stretches custom sourdough or Neapolitan-style dough, and turns out pizzas in about ninety seconds each while your guests watch, eat, and go back for more. It is $150 per person with an eight-guest minimum ($1,200).
Pizza parties are booked across South Jersey, the Jersey Shore, the Main Line and Myrtle Beach.
Live Fire Is the Show
A wood-fired oven runs around 800°F. Pizzas blister in about ninety seconds, so the party stays moving and guests gather around the oven instead of a buffet line.
Dough Made for the Fire
Custom sourdough or Neapolitan-style dough, quality sauces and cheeses, and curated toppings from classic Margherita to fig, prosciutto and balsamic.
Wood-Fired Pizza Pricing
$150 per person, eight-guest minimum ($1,200). Groceries are billed at cost and a $100 travel fee applies 25 or more miles from 08094. The oven rental and two tables are arranged with you and listed in your proposal. See the full pricing breakdown.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why Book Wood-Fired Pizza Party With Chef Matts
Bringing a chef into your home should feel calm, considered, and personal — not transactional. Every booking with Chef Matts Culinary Creations starts with a real conversation about your household: how many people you're feeding, the dietary preferences and restrictions involved, the kitchen we'll be working in, and the kind of experience you want to create. From there, Chef Matt builds a custom menu and confirms every detail in writing well before the date.
The service itself is fully turnkey. We handle planning, seasonal sourcing, in-home cooking, plating or portioning, and a complete kitchen cleanup before we leave. With more than eighteen years in professional kitchens — including time as an executive chef by age twenty-two and ongoing membership in the United States Personal Chef Association — Chef Matt brings restaurant-level technique into homes across South Jersey, the Jersey Shore, the Philadelphia Main Line, and South Carolina's Grand Strand.
