Have you ever heard of a Meatza Pie? It's a Low-Carb Pizza that uses meat for the crust instead of a traditional pizza dough. It's been 5 months since I cooked one of these and now I'm wondering why I waited so long!! Smoked a simple meatloaf recipe for the crust on my MAK 2 Star using Cookinpellets.com Premium Perfect Mix pellets. Topped the smoked/cooked meat crust with some of my favorite toppings and even added some pineapple chunks for the dear wife ... A true meat lover's delight!

Smoked the Meatza crust for 30 minutes at 180ºF before bumping the MAK 2 Star pit temp to 400ºF. Finished the crust by cooking it for another 15-20 minutes till the crust internal temperature reached 160ºF.

Topped the Meatza Pie crust with shredded mozzarella, pizza sauce, more shredded mozzarella, ham, dry salami, pepperoni, red onions, sliced black olives, sliced mushrooms, finished with shredded mozzarella and some pineapple chunks.

Placed the Meatza Pie back into the 400ºF MAK 2 Star for 12-15 minutes and cooked the pie until the the cheese was melted and bubbly. Let the Meatza Pie rest for 5 minutes before serving a slice with a side of green salad.

Thanks for the kind word Sparky. Unfortunately this recipe is not in my cookbook but I'd be more than happy to answer any questions you might have concerning this cook.

Hope I'm not stepping on any toes (if so moderators please edit this part) but you can buy my "The Wood Pellet Smoker and Grill Cookbook" from Amazon. Here's the link: http://amzn.to/2f5xyOx (http://amzn.to/2f5xyOx) ... (I've sold almost 10,000 copies of the cookbook). It would be my pleasure to sign the cookbook for you ... maybe we could meet half way somewhere for lunch before you migrate to Alabama. I'm envious cause we keep using the grandchildren as an excuse for not leaving Cali ... One of these days soon we're gone too!!
