Wood Fired Pizza in the BGE is amazing. This was my first attempt at it and it was amazing - just like everything else that comes out of the egg. This Egg was my best investment ever!!!

    That's a great looking pie!

    @johnmitchell, I always have a gap between my baking stone and plate setter; in addition to raising my baking stone higher up in the dome.

    I've seen where others use fire bricks between the baking stone and platesetter as well.

    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.

    My stone does have some small raisers to keep it from sitting right on the plate setter but I can see where raising it more could help. I'll try that next time. Thank You.

    Great tip John.
    A Wok ring works well as a spacer and they are only about 3 bucks at most cooking supply stores.
    Thank you,
