Cooking Guide
Overview
While no two types or brands of ovens and grills are the same we wanted to provide you with a good starting point for cooking your Pizza Snob dough. As a result these are just recommendations and my need to be adjusted based on your unique set up.
Grill
Note: This method will work with both traditional and kamado grills. We recommend using a pizza stone or other pizza accessory that is recommended by your grill maker. If using a pizza stone, ensure that you place it on the grill before preheating. Placing a cold or room temperature pizza stone into a hot oven can cause it to break.Â
Steps
1. Set grill to the highest heat option available
2. If using a pizza stone let the stone heat up for an additional 5-10 minutes once the grill is up to temperature
3. Place pizza on the stone or your chosen pizza cooking accessory
4. Cook and turn pizza as needed until crust is golden brown and the bottom starts to crisp (about 3-7 minutes however this can vary)Â
5. Remove pizza from grill by taking it off of the stone or accessory
6. Turn off grill and let the pizza stone cool before removing from the oven
Pizza Oven
Note: our pizzas work great in popular pizza ovens such as Solo Stove, Ooni, Gozney or any other pizza oven solution regardless if itâs gas or wood fired.Â
Steps
1. Bring pizza oven to temperature to the hottest setting (ideally 600Âș F to 700Âș F)
2. Place pizza in oven turning until crisps on the bottom and a golden brown crust
3. Remove from oven and enjoy
Conventional Oven
Note: We recommend using a pizza stone for the best results however you can use a traditional cookie sheet as well. If using a pizza stone, ensure that you place it in the oven before preheating. Placing a cold or room temperature pizza stone into a hot oven can cause it to break.Â
Steps
1. Preheat oven to 500Âș FÂ with rack on the top rack
2. If using a pizza stone let the stone heat up for an additional 15-30 minutes.
3. Stretch pizza dough building a lip on the outside for the crust
4. Place pizza on stone or put cookie sheet with pizza in the oven
5. Cook 8-10 minutes or until bottom is cooked and crust is golden brown.
6. Remove pizza from oven by either removing the cookie sheet or taking the pizza off of the stone
7. Turn off oven and let the pizza stone cool before removing from the oven
