Pizza Party !

Howdy folks...

On this summer evening it was time to throw a pizza party. Fired up the large & medium eggs and made a nice grilled vegetable platter as an appetizer with a marinade of olive oil, lime juice, my Dancing Sirtaki rub and garlic, topped with some balsamic viegar and parmesan. Had some nice Flatbread with the veggies.

The guests could assemble their Pizzas the way they wanted to. There was a wide range of toppings to chose from so every couple of minutes you could get a piece of another pizza. Perfect for a night like this.








































So long,

I had 18 doughballs and used 3 for the appetizer, so it was 15 pizzas for 12 guests. Had the eggs running at 700 F so they only took about 3 Minutes each.

Its not that hard to cook a good pizza on a kettle. All you need is a pizza stone. put almost all charcoal on the edge of the charcoal grate so the pizza stone doesnt get too much direct heat and dial in the temperature to about 650-700 F. You´ll need a lot of charcoal for that.
Once the stone is hot enough slide on the pies and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Take a look through the exhaust holes with a flashlight to check the pies instead of openening the lid so you dont lose all the heat everytime.

Don Marco- what recipe do you use for the dough? Really looks good

Thats just a classic dough - italian type 00 flour, fresh yeast, olive oil, water and a little bit of sugar and salt.
I make it a day or two ahead and let it sit in the fridge. Comes out very good usually.
