Cooking commercially prepared, pre-made pizza on a pellet grill involves placing a ready-to-bake, often circular, pizza directly onto the grill’s cooking surface or a pizza stone within the grill. This method infuses the pizza with a smoky flavor profile due to the wood pellets used as fuel. For example, a store-bought pepperoni pizza can be cooked this way for enhanced taste.
The primary advantage of this cooking technique lies in the distinctive smoky taste it imparts, differentiating it from conventional oven baking. This approach offers a convenient alternative to traditional methods, especially when seeking a more complex flavor. The history of pellet grills suggests that this application emerged as the grills’ popularity grew, driven by the desire to experiment with different cooking styles and flavors.
