I've had a PizzaQue for 6+ months, and this nice looking yellow 22 for 4+ months. Neither have been put to use... until tonight.
Test fit... yep, all snug. Looking good.

Slight color change... she's warming up...

Choice of toppings were bacon, chicken, cheese, red/yellow peppers, onions, spinach, broccoli, and... grapes ???

First pie in. Went with a basic cheese & bacon, since this was my first attempt...

Not too shabby for a rookie...

I was struggling to get the pizzas back onto the peel, so this wicked looking tongs assisted. First time I've ever needed to use it...

Overall, pizza night was a blast! It was very tasty, and we all had fun building and cooking the pies. Can't wait to do it again!
***disclaimer - The yellow kettle will (probably) be not be used as a pizza kettle again, in the interest of preventing crazing.... ;)
Good looking pies! How do those pre-made crusts taste? I've always seen them, but never tried one. LOVE that kettle. The color changes on those things as they heat up never fails to put a smile on my face.
Those look fantastic for a "rookie!" I bet the kids had a blast.
You should try homemade dough next time - I posted a really simple thin crust recipe that doesn't have to raise for hours. I make it just before I start the charcoal and it's ready to go when the grill is ready.

I would get them again. Nothing too special about them, but absolutely no complaints, whatsoever.

Yep... that's one of the reasons that I was compelled to do the pizza cook on her. I knew that I was going to get it screaming hot... 8)
Always fun to see a yellow all hot and bothered 8) Pies look great too Bob - nice cook!
Ps - will get those swing table parts out in the next few days.
Looks tasty. Good job!
I have a really good Imo's style crust recipe you should try. And we should combine forces and have one pizza night to rule.
That yellow kettle rocks!
Man that color change! Nice looking pies as well!

Share, please! - the wife and I are talking about getting some Imo's provel for our next pizza cook.
Great first pizza cook
@Bob BQ! You will probably have a bad one or two along the line but you'll get it dialed in and it will be a blast along the way. Looking forward to see some more pies from you. That color change is bad ass! My performer goes from bright red to a really deep maroon when I'm doing pizzas.
Nice! Now step it up and use some homemade dough. It makes all the difference.
