My wife and I recently got a charcoal smoker/grill after our old bullet smoker finally rusted through. It came with a pizza oven attachment and we’ve been slowly perfecting our dough and cooking techniques.
The combo of sourdough and high temperature baking produces the exact sort of crispy, chewy, slightly charred pizza experience I crave. We’re constantly rotating through different topping combos (and begging friends to come over so we can make more pizza without having to gorge ourselves).
Favorite so far is probably the spicy honey aged garlic pizza, but it’s all been fantastic. Any got any good pizza topping suggestions? Unusual options especially appreciated.
That looks amazing! I recently picked up Bread Illustrated by America’s Test Kitchen and their dough recipe blew me away. It sounds like yours must be similar with the 24hr+ dough recipe.
Anyway, I’m a fan of pineapple and pepperoni for toppings. I know pineapple is controversial but that sweetness with the salt of the pepperoni is pretty great.
All the yes! I soo want a pizza attachment! Looks great!
That looks delicious
It tasted as good as it looks.
With how quick and easy it is to make pizza now (other than needing to start the dough a day or two before) we have been eating far more pizza than is probably reasonable.
Honestly if you really think about it pizza isn’t that bad for you. So long as you keep the toppings and cheese to a minimum. It’s all the processed crap you get at places like dominos that makes it so bad
This is what I keep telling myself…
looks great. our go-to toppings is onion and mushrooms, occasionally with a sweet balsamic glaze drizzle. good with shrimp ham or prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, pesto or tomato base
Ooo, balsamic glaze to drizzle is a great idea that had not occurred to me. I’ll have to give that a shot.
Red onions and mushrooms have been in our constant rotation for toppings as well. We had a friend over to join us on our pizza craze and he brought prosciutto as a topping to donate, which has convinced me I should maybe start keeping some of that around.
