Of course, if I use the cast iron now, I am a copy cat. :doh:

Those look great and I have to try this method but sadly I too am sans CI. I guess I'll have to get one this weekend and season it. Thanks for posting.

You are gonna love buying cast iron because it's cheap. Most of it is pre-seasoned from the factory now, and to be quite honest, that seasoning they produce is not too bad. I still always re-season mine too but I don't know that its absolutely required.

did the bottom burn? (I gotta try this...)

The fire was really hot for the first one and the bottom got a little more done than I wanted but not quite burned. The fire had lost quite a bit of heat for the second one so I didn't have tha problem but still before the top was - well, it was done but not as much as I wanted so I threw it under the broiler for one minute. What I will do different next time is put the CI on something to create an air pocket underneath. Guerry suggested using the 10" CI but I wanted to make two pizzas:icon_blush:. Another thing to consider is that these were pan pizzas and do take longer to cook. So they don't need the super high heat that regular pizzas do. I think to do these to completion on the grill will require a temp of 450 and elevated surface.

These look delicious! I have never thought about doing pizzas like this and we love anything that lets us use our cast iron more.... We are going to have to give this a try!

 

[Montgolfier]

Looks great! I'm going to have to try this one with my hand made pizza dough....

I can't wait to see how it turns out for you! Are you going to use a thick or thin crust? Also, if you want a nice white sauce instead of tomato sauce let me know and I'll post the recipe I used.
