Been in Jr high athletics most of today(I'm a sub teacher) so nothing stressful tonight. Tomorrow if it's not raining I'm want to re-season the pit. It's been sitting for a few months and it looks it. Sunday I am going to smoke a chicken and some squash(yellow and zucchini) and onions. I'll also put some sausage on while I'm at it. I look forward to trying that chicken.

My business has all of a sudden gotten busy. Showed property Thursday, today and have scheduled for this weekend. All ready drafting some contracts, expect to be meeting with clients and gathering signatures. At least that is hope. And riding herd on a remodel that is suppose to go Active in 10 days. Keeping contractors on the job site, akin to herding cats. Point is, no planned cooks for me but for those who do... POST THOSE PICS :D

Gotta go into the office on Saturday.

Church on Sunday and a well deserved nap. :lol:

Next weekend I predict a real low key, under the radar, zen like bbq experience. Even the smoke will be lazy:)

Today (Saturday), I'm thinkin' homemade pizzas on the grill... well, kinda homemade.

Over this past summer, we grilled pizzas on the pit and they were perfect. In fact, the kids literally stood out by me waiting for more! We ended up eating it the garage! :shock:

I picked up frozen pizza dough balls (2) from my local Kroger (haven't tried these yet), for today, but we have made our own pizza dough and were privy to the local pizza joint's dough too, which tasted about the same IMHO.

Anyhoo, I would get a charcoal fire started on one side of my cooker while the other side was empty. I'd oil the dough on both sides with olive oil after rolling it out and getting the shape that fit my grill (rectangle) and then I would place it directly over the hot side of the pit. It only takes a few seconds to blister and char the dough before flipping it over for a little while longer. The dough gets rigid at this point. After cooked, I would slide it over to the non-fire side and dress the pizza crust with regular old jar spaghetti sauce, a ton of different cheeses, meats, veggies and such and close the lid for a few minutes until done. Man these are good! The char from the coal and the slight smoky flavor really sets these things off.

We can crank 'em out in an assembly line sorta fashion. I just put 'em on the cutting boards and slice when done... funny I always have an empty cutting board to use again by the time the next pizza is ready! 8)

For Sunday, probably a pork loin roast cooked indirectly, not smoked.
