Notes

  • Type of Smoking Wood. Select a type of wood that will complement the pizza's toppings like cherry, apple, maple, or peach which add a subtle sweetness. If you prefer a more intense smokey flavor, consider using hickory or mesquite. Even better try a blend of maple, cherry, and hickory.
  • Use a Pizza Stone. This is the secret to a perfectly cooked, crispy crust, every time.
  • Heating and Placement in the Smoker. Place the pizza stone (or cast iron, baking sheet) directly on your grill grates or smoker rack and allow the stone to preheat with your smoker.
  • Don't Add Too Many Toppings. This may result in a soggy crust.
  • Checking the Smoker's Temperature. Timing is crucial when smoking your pizza, so it's wise to invest in a temperature gun to monitor the heat inside your smoker for more accuracy.
  • During Cooking. Rotate your pizza occasionally to ensure even cooking and prevent certain areas from burning.
