SpokaneMan, i think that pan idea helps when your putting more topings on, i cant get a pizza right unless i keep it to a bare minimum when just throwing it on the stone. pizza looks great and i like it charred as well. hey stike, will i get poisoned from galvy fumes cooking pizza or would you leave that out during a pizza cook. some reading i did suggested throwing some coal in there during the cook to make it taste even more authentic, now ive lit my egg with anthracite, but never considered as a flavoring in the smoke
