Perfect Pizza Set Up on the Big Green Egg

This is the perfect set up for Pizza on a Large Big Green Egg. Platesetter on the fire ring with legs UP...Grid on the Platesetter legs and the Pizza Stone on the Grid. I have been using parchment paper under regular crust Pillsbury dough and they cook for 10-12 minutes PERFECT across the entire crust...starting with EVOO on the dough and then your favorite ingredients. Give it a try and Keep on Eggin'.

  1. Got the place setter, got the large pizza stone, made the dough, prepared 6 pizza's. The result.....it was ok not bad not great. The problem, the pizza was not crisp. I can't seem to get my egg (XL) to heat past 400 degrees. I'm thinking I may not be loading enough coal. How much coal do I need to burn to achieve high cooking temp? This coal is very expensive as you know. Any suggestion?

  2. Open up the bottom vent, let the coals get hot, keep the top vent open, close the lid and the heat should rise past 600 easy.

  3. Good suggestion, I had the same problem and I tweeked the vents and boom it was easy for it to get hot.

    I didn't use the place the first time, not a wise decision, so I glad you had a great picture showing how to set it up. Still in my first month of Green Grilling.
