K.C. Pit Master Making Smoked Pizza

Posted by Adam Kuban, October 22, 2009 at 10:29 AM

The Wilmington Star News reports on a recent WTF pizza moment at the Currituck BBQ Classic in Corolla, North Carolina:

When I heard [Chris] Marks say that at the recent Currituck BBQ Classic in Corolla, I thought, "He's smoking something." But Marks was serious. The owner of Kansas City's Three Little Pigs BBQ & Catering told me he simply places rolled-out pizza crust directly on the smoker grate, adds sauce, cheese and toppings and then bakes the pizza for about 45 minutes at about 275 degrees. The crust, he says, comes out cracker crisp, the pie smoky and flavorful.

Interesting. I was wondering if they would offer the smoked/grilled pizza at their restaurant in Crown Center, but seeing as how it takes 45 minutes on the smoker, I tend to doubt it unless they offer slices.

Take a short cut and just make a pizza with smoked cheese. I use smoked mozz...delicious.
