How Can I Make Pizza WITHOUT Taste of Meat?

I cook lots of meat and chicken on my egg. Whenever I try pizza, empanadas, etc. there is always an undesirable meat taste even when egg is cleaned and pizza stone used.
All suggestions greatly appreciated.

Search on a clean burn. An hour at 600 to 750 will "SELF CLEAN" your egg and burn off any foul or meaty taste.XL BGE; Medium BGE; L BGE

Simple. Get a second egg for nothing but pizza. Might sound stupid but i have a egg that i do nothing but baking in. No meat taste at all.1 XXL BGE, 1 LG BGE, 2 MED. BGE, 1 MINI BGE, 1 Peoria custom cooker Meat Monster.Clinton, Iowa

:-?? Egg is "clean" but you're getting a "meat" flavor in pizza, calzones, bread, baking goods etc.??? When you say clean do you mean the ceramics are white or do you mean that you have cleaned out the lump with fresh lump? I've never had this adverse reaction even after doing a brisket or a Boston butt. I run the egg up to about 600℉ to 750℉ 30 or so minutes just to burn off the old oils and fats and the pizza or baking good is good to go (and that's with the same old lump with some new added to it). What kind of lump are you using. Note: I didn't read all the responses so, if this has already been covered disregard and carry on.LBGE 2013 & MM 2014Die Hard HUSKER & BRONCO FANFlying Low & Slow in "Da Burg" FL

I agree with @NPHuskerFL. You might need a fresh load of lump.1 large BGE, Spartanburg SC

Try leaving the bacon, meatballs and pepperoni off your pizza.

Thanks to all.....I have used fresh Naked Whiz Highly Recommended lump.....fired the puppy as high as she could go and kept it there for 10-15 minutes but still traces of flank steak and other meats.Will try going high temperature for longer......unless I hear something better.

If you are reusing left over charcoal you likely have drippings that are reheating and giving you this flavoring. As others suggested a clean burn followed by new charcoal should resolve the issue.Greensboro, NC

With all those eggs you can have a meatless egg, a meat egg, a fish egg, a pizza egg, a baking egg, an ice cream dish egg...ads75 said:badinfluence said:Simple.

@ads75 see it works perfect don't it. No meat taste in my bread or pies.

Oven, tastes better cooks faster.
I've been tossing my pizzas in after the oven hits temp, the stone is ready by then no waiting 30+ mins etc.Seattle, WA -
