I had some ham left over from the last couple smokes and decided I wanted to make some pizza with it. I have never made a pizza on the smoker before so this was first. I made the dough from scratch using a basic recipe. Its a slightly modified version of one I found on-line.

After 40 or so minutes I rolled the dough out onto a thin tin cookie sheet with lots of flour on it.
I put on my pizza sauce. Since I was lazy, a jar of store bought pizza sauce with some extra garlic and onion powder as well as a dash of sugar would have to suffice.
I then covered the pizza with mozzarella cheese.
I chopped up some leftover ham from my ham smoke and covered half the pizza with it followed by some pineapple.
My son wanted peperoni pizza so the other half was covered in peperoni. We also put some fresh cut onion on it as well as some cilantro followed by a sprinkling more cheese. We kind of mixed things up a bit as this was an experiment.
Into the grill it went and this is the finished result.
It came out very good. I really liked the Hawaiian side!
