Sadly, I've got no pizza porn to post this evening, but for my money, I LOVE using my LODGE 14" Seasoned Pizza Pan on my gas grill. I let the grill get up to temp with the pan in place for 15 mins then set the pizza (built on a piece of parchment paper) directly on the pan, parchment and all. 5-6 mins at 500 degrees = perfection!

As a bonus, it's a great pan for anything from pancakes to searing steaks to burgers. I don't think I'll ever put meat on the grates again. None of the juice gets lost to the fire.

I have got to crack some eggs on my pies. I wonder how long to set up but still have runny yolks in a 550F oven.
 
I was at it too. Personal pie. Personal iipa. Hope my insurance agent isn't on here.

I love pizza and I love eggs, but I gotta say I really don't get the whole egg on a pizza thing, unless it's a full on breakfast pizza. But that's just me I guess.
I was wondering though, were those eggs cooked separately and added after the bake?
 
Yes, I just made some over easy eggs. Honestly it was because I wanted it for the protein. I do like poached egg on pizza because I can control the yolk runniness (sp) better. I was just lazy.
As far as cracking an egg on a pie. I've heard of par baking to get a crust that can stand up to the moisture and adding the egg with about 3 minutes to go.
...but I haven't tried it.
 
What difference does it make? I make my own pizza and it's excellent. I don't need to justify my personal preferences to anyone. This entire site is based on people doing what they enjoy. Of course, it's also loaded with over judgmental nerds whining about things they don't like too. Mic drop...

Chill, I meant no harm only wondering what type of pizza you're used to:mug:
 
I'm not dipping pizza in ranch to cover up crappy pizza. This is the Home Made Pizza Thread, not the Local Takeout Thread.

Some people don't eat crust. I like to dip it in various things, ranch being one of them.

Cool, pie looked nice by the way, enjoy, do what makes you happy:mug:
 
What's with the ranch hatred? Homemade ranch with fresh dill and chives is so flavorful and different from what you get from the squeeze bottles. I think it can convert anyone. Ranch rules. Plus, I've seen enough of Yeasties' work to know better than to question him.

I've see yours too, both look good, but your from Cali, what do you know about pizza:D

Never in my life have I considered dipping my crust in ranch, to each his own.
As I said no offense to Yeasty, just wondering where he was located with these weird customs:p
 
I can recall my Mom buttering pizza crust, that was before we had great olive oils available for bread dipping, and she was the only person that I knew of doing it. I guess to each their own, what ever floats your boat and as Rex said do what make you happy.
 
A white pizza, using ranch as the sauce, with chicken, bacon and onion makes a great pie. Only thing to make it better is to shake some Frank's Red Hot on top. Mmmm. Makes me wet just thinking about it.
 
Happiness is having BBQ chicken feast pizza with creamy white garlic sauce, mozzarella, BBQ sauce, Fresh slice cheddar and a double chicken with your hubby :mug: from Vancouver-based pizzeria - Fresh Slice Pizza, during rocking weekends :rockin: ...The coming week is his birthday and I was planning to bake BBQ chicken pizza just like in the feast pizza menu. I'm sure he's gonna be surprised and happy seeing his wife as a cook (I hardly cook any dishes :p). This is my very first attempt so I'm kinda nervous too....Let's start with it base. Anyone have some great dough recipes for thin crust?
 
So - how much olive oil does everybody add to their dough? My standard recipe has been:

5 (1#7oz.) cups bread flour
1/2 TBS sugar
1 TBS yeast
1 TBS kosher salt
2 cups water
3 tablespoons EVOO

But the last batch I halved the oil and sugar and had a crisper crust that was still easy to work and made an excellent pizza.
