Pizza-I finally did it right!

Aunt Crazy

Thanks to Judy Mayberry, Chris Tredwell and Fidel, we had the most delicious pizza last night. Do not miss out on fire-roasted tomatoes, if you have not tried that for the sauce. I have cooked about 20 pizzas and the ones that turned out the best were the frozen, grocery store kind. Thanks so much to the afore-mentioned experts for the tricks.....

Looks great! I may have to give the sauce a spin.

Good going. nice looking pie.

Nice!! Great feeling to do it right! When I get my stones at the fest I will ask away Stacy!!

Shiff

Looks good. I haven't made much pizza on the BGE, but will get to it soon.

Aunt Crazy

By all means try roasting the tomatoes. I could not believe how good the sauce was. Finally getting the crust right was all due to the experts....

Aunt Crazy

Please tell me you are coming to Atlanta. I am poised and ready to register. Would love to put faces to names....

Aunt Crazy

Get a pizza screen, if you don't already have one. Also, there are experts on this forum....

Might have to try that with some of the Mellow Mushroom style dough. Looks great. Nothing like a slice of pizza pie with salad.

I'm not this year. My goal for next year. How bout you to denver in 27 days! COME ON!!

Fidel

Looks like a great pie.

Not sure what I did to help, but glad you enjoyed it.

Judy Mayberry

Well, you have dough recipes (don't know if A. Crazy used it), and one of your pictures showed a delicious pizza on a pizza screen. A picture is worth a thousand words!

I'm proud of you, girl! Great photos to boot. I get so intent during fast cooks that I always forget about taking pictures. You are really cool under pressure.

What set-up did you end up using?

I am going to go light the Egg and roast the dozens of tomatoes from my garden that all got ripe at the same moment. I could never eat them all, and I printed out Chris" post on the roasted sauce when he posted it. I have tarragon, thyme, basil, and mint to pick. Out I go!

Oh my--let me talk to Papa Bear. Might be a go....

Aunt Crazy

That was it!

Aunt Crazy

Enjoy the tomatoes :woohoo: ! I am going to use some of the sauce in a tomato pie tomorrow. I will post...

Cool under pressure--must be all the ICU nursing I have done

I ended up using indirect with tne elevated grid, way up in the dome, like you advised. I used one stone for the indirect and two "stories" up used the pizza stone with the pizza screen and pizza. It was fabulous. Even Papa Bear agreed! Thanks so much for your help!

Registration is tomorrow!!!!

I used publix dough. I really believe the key was the pizza screen and getting it high up in the dome. Even in the oven BE (before egg), I could not tell the difference in publix and homemade.

We are registered!

Love to Mitzi!

mr

just got online and about to make pizza for the first time- what temp did you do this on...looks great.

Aunt Crazy

500 degrees, high up in the dome. Good luck! If you don't have a pizza screen, get one (I bought 5 when I found out how cheap they are). Post your pizza and let us know how it does....
