Made the dough yesterday and gave it a slow rise in the fridge overnight, was very tasty. Homemade Italian sausage, dough, sauce, bought the pepperoni and cheese. -RP

Dang it was really good. Hard to beat a pizza cooked in a charcoal fired Big Green Egg. -RP

What temperature did you run the egg at for your pizza?

I set the plate setter legs up with the main grid on the legs and used a 16" Air Bake pan on the grid. Dome temp was 500. -RP

Thanks. Have you ever used it in the 700 plus range for pizza or anything else?

I have but I get more consistent results at 450-550. Crusts can burn pretty quickly at 700 and there is a better chance of flashbacks at the high temps. -RP

My regular gas oven cooks pizza at 500. Of course, I don't get the nice wood benefits. (Stuart, behave!)

Yeah, I am worried about the flashbacks as well. Thanks for your response.

Bob, I think that you should buy a Kamado for everyone on the forum! :D

Randy, that might be the most professional looking homemade pizza I've ever seen. Not that the raggedy ones don't taste as good, but mine sure have never looked like yours.
