Back in the 80s, Pizza Hut had a pizza called Priazzo Roma.  It was a deep dish pizza with a top crust and it was DELICIOUS!!!  Didn't last long, but I decided for the contest, I'd try recreating it.  I used my weber gourmet skillet for the pan.  I used garlic dough from the Portland Pie Co.

First the pepperoni:

Next the veggies (sorry out of focus):

Then the hot Italian sausage and sauce:

Cheese (Mozzarella and Provolone):

Then the top crust.  Sealed the edges and pricked it all over with a fork.  This is the shot with more sauce on top and cheese was added to that after:

I used a full chimney of coal divided into three baskets with the skillet in the middle.  Temp ran around 375 to 425 for twenty minutes:

Quick one/two/three.  Not quite as I remembered it, but close.  Very.  Very.  Close:

Well done! Gotta get me the pizza stone attachment for my MT. But I'm assuming you used the griddle?

That looks amazing!  Can only imagine how it tasted ... Thank you for sharing.   :D

You killed it, man !
Looks fantastic !

Thanks!  Yep, used the griddle, but I didn't remove the center section from the cooking grate.  I just sat the griddle on top with the three charcoal baskets in a triangular configuration underneath.  Had an extra basket left over, so I thought about elevating it.  Decided against it (seemed too tippy) and the bottom turned out fine.  I liberally wiped the bottom of the griddle with olive oil before I put the bottom crust in the griddle and it slid right out and onto the cutting board easy peasy.

That looks really awesome! Never thought about using the skillet for pizza.

Holy crap, I have finally found a use for the skillet, I have had it for about 2 years and never used it.

Jackpot - well done.  I have not tried pizza in my CI Skillet, but this looks real inviting. 

That looks amazing.  Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, those handles make transporting it from the grill to the house a breeze.  As long as you are wearing heat resistant gloves, that is.

Very nice PRIAZZO!

wow. very cool
