Let your pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the cheese from sliding off of the pizza and, more importantly, you will prevent any burns from molten cheese!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nRecommended Equipment and Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n The simplest advice is to use the best smoker you can afford and the highest quality ingredients, but if you are on a budget, even a smoker that costs less than $200 can do a really good job. Here’s a quick list of the essential components of a great-tasting smoked pizza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Electric smoker: You’re not going to get very far without this. Try and get one that is large enough to hold a 12″ base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Pizza dough: You can use store-bought or homemade pizza dough. We recommend using a recipe that contains bread flour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Pizza sauce: Use your favorite pizza sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Pizza toppings: I prefer meat toppings, but fish such as tuna and salmon also work very well in a smoker. Veggies are, of course, perfect for non-meat eaters, and peppers and onions come out best (in my opinion)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Baking sheet: This will be used for shaping and transferring your pizza dough to the smoker. Make sure it’s high quality and thick enough to lift a pizza without bending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Grease: This will be used for greasing your baking sheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wood Types<\/h2>\n\n\n\n The best kind of wood to use for smoking pizza is hickory. Hickory has a strong, distinct flavor that pairs well with pizza. However, other woods such as mesquite or apple can also be used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Starting the Fire<\/h2>\n\n\n\n When starting the fire, use about two to three handfuls of wood chips. Soak the wood chips in water for 30 minutes before adding them to the smoker. This will help to create more smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adding Wood Chips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n You’ll need to add more wood chips every 30 minutes or so in order to maintain a consistent level of smoke. We recommend using about one handful of wood chips for every 30 minutes of smoking time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maintaining the Temperature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n It’s important to maintain a consistent temperature while smoking pizza. As previously stated, we recommend using a temperature between 200 and 225 degrees Fahrenheit but lower temps will work although this will increase the cooking time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Checking the Pizza<\/h2>\n\n\n\n You’ll need to check on your pizza periodically to ensure that it’s cooking evenly. To do this, simply insert a toothpick or fork into the center of the pizza. If the toothpick or fork comes out clean, your pizza is done. If not, continue cooking until the pizza is cooked through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Serving the Pizza<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Once your pizza is cooked, remove it from the smoker and let it cool for a few minutes. This will help to prevent the cheese from sliding off of the pizza. Once it’s cooled, slice and serve your pizza! Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
