Good afternoon,
It is now time to move from making store bought frozen pizza's on the BGE to hand made. There is alot written about cooking the pizza but I need to get simple directions on making the dough. I then need simple directions on baking the pizza dough on the BGE, preparing it for the final phase of total pizza cook. Any help would be appreciated. [p] La. Redneck

    La Redneck,
    I used Spin NY Pizza for my first time. It came out great. I also found this dough recipe to be forgiving.[p]From this link you can find part I and III (sauce & baking).

    La Redneck, here is my recipe:
    Home-made Pizza Dough & Sauce
    [p]Ingredients:
    • 1 can crushed tomatoes ( 28 Oz.) [ Hunts makes a good one]
    • 1 small onion finely chopped
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 1 Tbs olive oil
    • 1/8 tsp black pepper
    • 1 Tbs basil
    • 1 Tbs oregano [p]
    Cooking Directions:
    • on medium heat saute onions in the olive oil for a few minutes.
    • add the tomatoe sauce, salt, pepper & herbs.
    • stir from time to time, cooking for 20 min. [p]Special Instructions:
    • Food Processor Dough:

    • 1 cup water(room temp)
    • 1 pack yeast
    • 1 tablsp olive oil
    • 1 teasp salt
    • +/-3 cups Breadflour (always best when using yeast)[p]Directions:
    • Pour water into processor, add yeast - give a quick pulse.
    • Add about 1 cup breadflour, salt & oil - give a few quick pulses.
    • Add 1 ½ cup more breadflour & process to form a ball- adding more flour as needed. [p]The dough should not be sticky, so adjust the flour used to get a fairly firm, smooth dough.
    • Remove from the processor bowl & place on a floured surface to knead it a few more times by hand.
    • Place the dough in a covered bowl to rise til double +/-1 ½ hours.
    • Remove from the bowl, punch down & form ino two balls that can be rolled out into two 12" pizzas.
    • ( you may want to fold over the edges, to give an edge crust/rim to contain sauce & ingredients)
    • my last BGE bake was @ 400°F 35-40min. [p]
