Pizza on the griddle might be one of the easiest cooks you're not making yet. 🍕🔥

Here's how we do it:

🔥 Preheat your griddle to medium-high heat and lightly oil the surface.

🔥 Lay down your dough and cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles start to form. Flip it over.

🔥 Add your sauce, cheese, and favorite toppings to the cooked side.

🔥 Cover with a melting dome or lid and let it cook until the cheese is melted and the crust turns golden brown.

That's it. Crispy crust, melty cheese, and all the flavor of outdoor cooking without needing a pizza oven. 👊🔥

Competition BBQ tip that saves you on the competition floor: Never cook just one rack of ribs.

Your first rack is your calibration rack. Smoker temps fluctuate when you first load the meat. The second and third racks will cook more consistently.

Cook 2–3 racks, submit the best one.
