Italian Pizza

Buckwoody Egger · February 2009

Did another pizza tonight. Some notes...

* Use melted butter and Italian seasoning to brush the crust for the first time. Very pleased.
* Figured out that the best way to get the Egg up to pizza temp (550 or more) after setting the platesetter and stone in the Egg is to leave the lid up for a while. I had been closing the Egg too soon as an attempt to not "temp shock" the stone.
* Let Egg stabilize closed at 550 for 30 minutes.
* Cooked pizza for 13 min, could have gone a few more minutes and been just as good.
* All ingredients bought at Publix. Still haven't tried 7 grain dough. First time with this forum-recommended sauce. Its very good.

Good looking pizza. I need to be trying some of those ingredients on my pizzas. Like your choice of beer. I live about 35 minutes from that brewery! It's a very popular beer in this area.

Really good looking pizza!! I haven't tried that sausage before, in fact I've never tried any chicken sausage. Does it help keep the grease down on the pie? Always looking for alternatives that are better for me.

That pizza sauce is the best....I use their Chopped Italian Tomatoes with herbs and EVOO over and in anything Italian... :P

Thanks, yes, that chicken sausage is really good. Not greasy at all.

Yeungling is new to Georgia if you can believe it. Great beer, lived up North for a year and forgot how great it is. It makes a better half of a black and tan than Bass (the real one, not the premixed they sell).

Mighty fine looking pizza! We made some tonight also. I had trouble reading your dough pkg. What kind of dough is that you are using? Thanks in advance.

Thanks, that is Publix Italian Pizza Dough. Publix is a Florida-based grocery store that is prominent in Atlanta as well.
