Discover the Smoky Goodness: A Guide to Making Perfect Smoked Pizza at Home
Pizza is undoubtedly one of the most popular and beloved foods in the world, and with good reason. There’s something simply irresistible about the combination of cheese, sauce, and dough. But what if we told you that you could take your pizza to a whole new level by infusing it with delicious smoky goodness?
In this guide, we’ll show you how to make the perfect smoked pizza at home. We’ll cover everything from the ingredients you’ll need to the step-by-step process of cooking it on a Kamado Joe Classic 2 ceramic grill.
Ingredients
To create the ultimate smoked pizza, we used three Take And Bake pizzas from Walmart. You can use any pre-made pizza dough or crust that you like. Here are the ingredients you’ll need:
- 3 pre-made pizzas
- Pizza sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- Shredded mozzarella cheese
- Toppings of your choice (we used pepperoni, sausage, and mushrooms)
Cooking Steps
Cooking a pizza on a grill can be a bit tricky, but we’ll guide you through the process to ensure your pizza comes out perfectly. Here are the steps:
- Load the grill with lump charcoal and light it up.
- While the grill is heating up, clean the grates.
- Once the grill reaches 350 degrees Fahrenheit, place the pizzas directly on the grates.
- Cook for around 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Use foil or a pan to keep the finished pizzas warm until you’re ready to serve.
