    Wish I could help but pizza is the one thing that I stink at. Seek advice from @RRP as he is the pizza master.

    I have not used smoke chips on pizza myself. I would think that your pizza would pick up quite a bit of smoke flavor and that left-overs, if any, would have an even more pronounced smoke flavor.

    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.

    I don't add any chips or chucks to my wood fired pizzas.

    Whoaaa, I'm the gasket guy, not the pizza guy...I may make my own dough and sauce, but my pizza knowledge pales to that of Carolina Q. Give him a shout out!

    My apologies sir. But must say I have seen some impressive pizza advice from you posted many times.

    I think they mean AZRP. Regardless, I wouldn't add any wood chips when cooking pizza. Dough/bread can pick up a lot of smoke. You want it clean burning before you put on pizza.
