Hey Guys,

Took the Big Green Egg for a spin, baking my first pizzas.

I learned that I need to perfect my technique for getting pizzas from the peel onto the pizza stone...so they were less than round in the end.

They however were tasty.

Both had Baby Bellas, and one had some type of Italian Salami we received in a gift basket - the dough was a whole wheat.

The one with salami we made thinner than the one without. Both were delicious, and the Egg performed excellently. Definite do again.

Don't care the shape(that's what knives are for...for shaping). As long as it tasted good. Looks great from here. I am giving points for sharing what you probably thought was not a perfect cook. poi-nts

Looks very good. Pizza on the BGE is excellent :drooling:

Since that looks like the first or second cook on the XL, all will get much better once the BGE and the stone get seasoned.

Looks great FHC!! I cheat when sliding my pies onto the stone in the Weber, I use a second peel to gently slide the pie on to the stone.

Wow - you called it. Second cook...did a Beer Can Chicken that turned out marvelously.

Pizzas were very tasty, and I guess oblong is just fine when it tastes good.

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

They' look better if I'd had the chance to eat one from my chair. :noidea:
