First attempt at Pizza

Tried our first pizza on the egg this weekend.  The first pic was my attempt, not exactly circle.

The Wife made the last two and they look a lot prettier.

They all tasted great.  Raised Indirect on BGE stone at 600.  I struggled to keep the temp up at 600 for the last 2 pizzas, had the grill wide open.

Got the dough from Publix.  Cheese was mix of mozzarella and white cheddar.

Definitely will be trying again.

    Nice job!  How did the bottoms look?

     

    I also had the issue of keepin the temp up, until I upgraded my firegrate, are you using the factory one?  if so that's your problem.

    Looks really good.

    Our Publix has the dough, in balls, or already rolled out. The rolled out one gives me that perfect circle but it cost 50 cents more. :) 

    It is excellent pizza dough...as good as my home made.

    I just bought a stone, all my pizzas have been in the oven as I was afraid to use the Pampered Chef one I have on the BGE, so I am anxious to try them on the BGE. Hope it turns out as good as yours.
