that's how pizza is supposed to cook

I agree to an extent. I've never tried the pizza shelving in the BGE, that seems interesting. I would assume with cooking at that temp, you would need a very then crust or risk some issues.

No need to do anything special with the BGE. Just purchase one and you're automatically turned into a world class BBQ expert.

I've wondered if you were you for a long time. Glad to finally know. Read your posts on some other boards over the years under another name, as well. I like your blog a lot.

Do you make the crust thin?

Crust is thin at the center, with a good puffed cornicione. I don't like a thin to the edge crust, I want a nice poofy ridge at the ends of my slice.

If you like ultra thin and crispy, try Kenjis NY style crust over at Slice: LINK

I would appreciate photographs of the results of that session along with any new advice you might think of as you embark on this endeavor.

Please send all thin crust, meaty pizzas in a good sturdy, airtight box.

The Lahey book has a conversion for cups/tablespoons. But just buy a digital scale. I can promise you if I went through your kitchen there are 5 items are more that are less useful and more expensive than a kitchen scale that you excitedly bought.

Tried seeing if I could find 1/2" piece, figure 50+lb pan might prove difficult later.

We have a pizza stone. I may have to look into the baking steel though.
