K.C. Pit Master Making Smoked Pizza
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. Related...Lobster Pizza at Chicago's Blue 13

[Photograph: Pizza Making] I kinda love pizzamaking.com. The folks there get extra nerdy about dough and crusts and ovens and baking but then turn around and post something fun like this technique for pizza muffins: I've been thinking about these for awhile and finally gave it a try. Easy to do. Make your pizza, roll it up, slice and place in a muffin pan.I used a dough that's about 55% hydration. Overnight retard. It's easy to roll and shape. After rolling into a rectangle I sauced it and added pepperoni and mozzarella. You have to kind of figure the...Mac-and-Cheese Pizza Available at Hell's Kitchen Pizza
Perhaps the most famous purveyor of the mac-and-cheese slice is Ian's Pizza, based in Madison, Wisconsin, but the (literally) cheesy idea has invaded NYC in some spots, including Hell's Kitchen Pizza on Tenth Avenue (47th/48th streets). The blog Lemondrop has a taste. Whether it's as good as Ian's is purported to be, only a expat Wisconsonite could tell us. We got one in the audience willing to give it a go? Email me. Hell's Kitchen Pizza: 691 Tenth Avenue, New York NY 10036 (map); 212-765-8565...Peking Duck Pizza at Costco (in Taiwan)
[Photograph: My Inner Fatty] From the blog My Inner Fatty comes this account of Peking duck pizza, available at Costco of Taiwan: it looks just like a regular pizza, except... it's covered in Peking duck! Instead of tomato sauce, try 甜麵醬 (er, I don't know how to translate that, it's the sauce you put into those thin pancakes when you have Peking duck). Then to replace normal onions, you have scallions. To be fair, the pizza wasn't amazing, the crust was kind of soggy ... it was overly doughy, and lacked the char on the bottom. Whatever, you find...Saag Paneer Pizza? Why Not?
[Credit: Midtown Lunch] Saag paneer is spinach and cheese, right? So why not make a saag paneer pizza? Midtown Lunch posted yesterday about the unusual pies at Bombay Eats on West 52nd Street. Right now, the Indian-food-topped pizza is sold whole-pie-only. The proprietor there told MTL's Zach Brooks that he didn't think there was enough demand to sell these pizzas by the slice. Zach badgered the owner enough that he made a slice topped with saag paneer from the buffet. He says: I still think he’d make a killing offering Indian pizza by the slice. Maybe if enough people...Gyro Pizza at Italian Express: Love the Concept, Less Excited About the Reality
"Virtually every inch of the pie had at least one layer of gyro meat on it." Slice–Serious Eats contributor Daniel Zemans checks in with another piece of intel on the Windy City pizza scene. Daniel also blogs about Chicagoland pizza with his friends on the Chicago Pizza Club blog.

Fortune Cookie Chronicles New York Times reporter Jennifer 8. Lee, an obsessive of Chinese food culture, reveals that the legendary General Tso is now dabbling in pizza-making. A reader of her Fortune Cookie Chronicles blog sent her a photo of a menu at a Philadelphia Chinese restaurant that features "Chinese pizza." You can order your pie with General Tso sauce, sesame garlic sauce, or hoisin barbecue. This is funny because—and I may have told this story before; bear with me—a Chinese translator I know once had to translate some documents for a Chinese restaurant trade association. There was a...Paula & Monica's: When an Italian Beef Makes Love to a Pizza

Just before the Blackhawks–Canucks game, Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley promised Vancouver's mayor Red Hot Chicago hot...Slice is part of the Foodblog Ad Network.
