Pizza on the Smoke Fire

I might have had my last pizza cook on Frankenstein, the SF makes bomb pizza. I set it to 450 and it struggled with keeping the temperature, so I cranked it up to max (600) and never looked back

My daughter came out for the weekend to see some friends, and spent Sunday with us. As always, Bloody Marys are a given when she's around

As mentioned, I tried 450 and most the time is was below 400 so I hit the gas

First up, my daughter's pizza. She can't have gluten, so I bought some gluten free flour and made my first gluten free pizza. The package said it's a sticky dough and they weren't lying. Had to cook it on parchment. Turned out pretty good actually

Warm up

Next up, gluten pizza, LOL

Have messed with several dough recipes, and I keep coming back to the tried and true, Barb's Recipe, thanks Barb for the recipe. I cheated just a little bit, I put some honey in the water & yeast to give the little guys something to eat

My bride stretched this one out a little better than the first one, and it was the cat's meow

Some good games this weekend, I'm not really into football much anymore, however this weekend was a good weekend to watch some football
 
Wow; those are awesome-looking pizzas. Great job!

I enjoy being able to see the fire in a pellet grill :)

Chuck what pan are you using?
All you did was crank the beast to 600 and boom? Look great.
 
No pan, just a stone. Mine is expensive but it's been a great stone

I tried setting the grill at 450 but I gave up and just cranked full blast (600) and I cooked on the left side of the grill, as you face it. My left side is more indirect than the right side

I have to admit, I'm pretty hooked on how the SmokeFire did. I'll likely cook all my future pizzas on it
 
@ChuckO Did you cook the gluten free pizza with parchment paper under it at 600+? I use semolina flour on the peel, but if parchment paper works that could be even easier so long as I don't send the pizza flying before it gets on the grill.
 
Great looking pies Chuck. Barb says your very welcome and glad you like it. We also like the idea of the added honey. I see pizza and the camp chef coming together.

Hi Jon

The gluten free pizza was the first pizza cooked, and it was when I was trying to hold 450 degrees. So to answer your question, yes it was cooked on the parchment paper, but no, not at 600

Even though I had my SF set to 600, it struggled to get to 600. It was an unusually cold night this cook, and I think my auger was in the early stages of failing due to the broken auger pin.

I have cooked pizzas on parchment paper (in my Frankenstein) and those temps were 500+ degrees. Long as the paper didn't hang past the stone, no issue. But if it did hang past the stone, it would catch fire

I still use Barb's recipe, but I do cheat and use my blender :)
Tell Barb I said hello

Great pies, Chuck. Dunno how I missed this thread.

I swear by my Emile Henry stone. Best I've ever used. I actually made fajitas on it last week.
