Getting a handle on pies...

gtsum · Apr 28, 2010

I had some dough I needed to get used up so I put together this pie last night to cook ont he Primo....I think I have messed up more pies then I ever did ribs or briskets (back when I first started).....put pie on at 600 and closed down the dampers - temps dropped to 550 and that is where she cooked for about 10 minutes - I should have taken off at 8:30-9 minutes. I still don't have my method down 100%, but we are getting there

thanks fellas!

No, I have not started making my own yet..this was a store bought dough ball - once I get the technique down (temps, time, cooker setup, etc), I am going to try some homemade dough...this pizza making has humbled me let me tell ya!

Cooking Pizza by time can be problematic. Although, some people
have it down to a science.

Rather than cook your pizza by time...you might cook it "like" a steak.
If you want it cooked longer....you can put it back on for a bit; but,
if it's overcooked; you can't un cook it.
Maybe lower your cook temperature by 100°...and when you see the
edge start to turn brown...pull it off....you can always put it back on
long, if you want.

And you might as well go ahead and make your own crust...because crusts
can be different....moisture content, flour type, etc.
