Pesto and Pepperoni Pizza

3 years ago by AwkwardTurtle to c/food

My wife and I recently got a charcoal smoker/grill after our old bullet smoker finally rusted through. It came with a pizza oven attachment and we've been slowly perfecting our dough and cooking techniques.

The combo of sourdough and high temperature baking produces the exact sort of crispy, chewy, slightly charred pizza experience I crave. We're constantly rotating through different topping combos (and begging friends to come over so we can make more pizza without having to gorge ourselves).

Favorite so far is probably the spicy honey aged garlic pizza, but it's all been fantastic. Any got any good pizza topping suggestions? Unusual options especially appreciated.

looks great. our go-to toppings is onion and mushrooms, occasionally with a sweet balsamic glaze drizzle. good with shrimp ham or prosciutto,, fresh mozzarella, pesto or tomato base

Ooo, balsamic glaze to drizzle is a great idea that had not occurred to me. I'll have to give that a shot.

Red onions and mushrooms have been in our constant rotation for toppings as well. We had a friend over to join us on our pizza craze and he brought prosciutto as a topping to donate, which has convinced me I should maybe start keeping some of that around.
