Grilling Frozen Pizza on the Big Green Egg

Here at FOGO Charcoal, we love showcasing creativity and versatility when it comes to cooking with the Big Green Egg, and this week, Kaitlyn (aka Kickin' Kate’s BBQ) stepped in once again to hold down the fort while her dad, Captain Ron, continues to recover. This time, she’s taking on a classic comfort food with a twist—grilling frozen pizza!

Cooking Frozen Pizza on the Big Green Egg

Kaitlyn knows her way around the Egg, and in true Kickin’ Kates fashion, she decided to elevate a frozen pizza using the raised grate direct grilling method. With the Big Green Egg preheated to a crisp 400°F, she showed us how easy and delicious it can be to transform a simple frozen pizza into a smoky, crispy masterpiece.

Why the Raised Grate Method?

You might wonder, why the raised grate? This method gives the pizza just the right balance of direct heat and air circulation. By elevating the pizza slightly above the flame, Kaitlyn avoided burning the bottom while ensuring that the crust came out perfectly golden and the cheese was melted to bubbly perfection.

And let's not forget the best part—cooking on the Big Green Egg with FOGO Charcoal infuses that irresistible, subtle smoky flavor that’s impossible to replicate in a conventional oven. It’s the kind of taste that turns an everyday frozen pizza into something special.

Captain Ron’s Take

While Captain Ron is still on the mend, he’s been keeping a close eye on Kaitlyn’s culinary ventures, and we have to say, he’s pretty impressed! There’s nothing like a grilled pizza, especially when it’s made on the Big Green Egg with a little FOGO magic. Kaitlyn’s been stepping up in a big way, and we couldn’t be prouder of her BBQ skills and creativity.
