As you can see (the egg) it is not going to be a walk in the park.

If one of the regular participants to this thread could summarise the pitfalls I might want to watch out for and a recommended list of ingredients, I would appreciate (I have followed the thread but it's now 50+ pages long...)

I cook pizza pretty regularly on the egg.

My method is pretty simple but always seems to work well.

Light egg and leave open for 15 mins until charcoal well lit with flames appearing.

Put in pizza stone close lid and open all vents to max.

Waiting until temp builds to 575F-600F (takes about 30 mins on my XL egg). I find 30 mins is required to get the pizza stone hot so if yours gets to temp quicker, leave for 30 mins.

Burp the egg and put in the pizza.

After 2 mins lift the lid and spin the pizza around 180 degrees. It should move freely on the pizza stone. Close lid.

The pizza will be done after a further 4-6 minutes. I check mine by looking down on it through the top open vent.

I also do Naan bread using a similar method.

Good luck!
