Hello and good afternoon, my fellow Egg Heads.

I’ve been asked a lot if the Big Green Egg will make a pizza. My answer, “Absolutely!” Pizza is one of the most simple foods to cook on the Egg.

Big Green Egg Plate Setter

Fire up your Egg to about 600 degrees. After the Egg reaches 600, get your plate setter, using it with the legs down.

You can can make your own pizza or buy frozen (you have to taste a frozen pizza cooked on the Egg – you’d never know it was store-bought)) or even go to your favorite pizza place and get a “take and bake”.

Big Green Egg Baking Stone

Next thing you will need is a baking stone. I recommend the Big Green Egg Baking Stone. It’s a little thicker than most and will hold up to high heat.

After the Egg is at 600 degrees, put you pizza in and close the lid. Let it bake forĀ 6 to 10 minutes. Use corn meal to coat the bottom of your pizza.

Use a pizza peel to remove pizza.

It’s as simple as that….. Perfecto!

Remember, always watch your fire.

Happy Grilling.
