Best Pellet Smoker Pizza Recipes

We already know how much I love a good grilled pizza, but you can easily make one on your pellet grill too. Think woodfire grill meets smoker, you get the best flavors in minutes and without actually having a woodfire grill!

This recipe works best with a baking stone or pizza stone. This stone can handle high heat and be put right into your smoker.

Perfect

Be sure to coat the stone lightly with flour or cornmeal so that the pizza does not stick to the stone while cooking.

The pellet grill should be preheated to 450 degrees F, then you can cook the pizza for 10-15 minutes until it’s nice and bubbly on top.

The cheese that is pre-shredded has an additive that keeps it from sticking, but it also keeps it from melting as well as the block of cheese that is freshly shredded.

Watch the pizza closely because all smokers tend to heat differently. If you notice that one side of the pizza is cooking faster than the other carefully rotate it if needed throughout the cooking time.

I do have a technique for grilling pizza, that I’ll share one day soon, that involves grilling pizza directly on grill grates. But it’s not the easiest to maneuver raw pizza dough directly on the grill. So I suggest using a baking sheet or pizza stone when making pizza on a wood pellet grill.

When I say “we” I’m talking about my husband and I but let’s be honest, he does most of the work. I prep the toppings and make a side salad, he does the rest. Big shout-out to him for helping me nail down some formal instructions for this recipe!

The Traeger is an extremely versatile wood-fired grill. You use pellets instead of gas or charcoal to fuel the fire, which means you get that classic wood-fired flavor and a nice and consistent final product. It’s also very “techy” and easy to control the temperature (from your phone), so you can “set it and forget it”.

The website calls it a 6-in-1 appliance because you can grill, smoke, bake, roast, braise and BBQ. I like to say that you can basically use it as an outdoor oven. It’s very durable and can stay outside (we have a cover for it). You can even use it in the rain. This is one of those investments that you’ll have for years and years to come.

Once summer arrives, we probably use our Traeger at least 1-2x/week to make dinner. My husband also uses it to make a cast iron skillet Dutch baby on the weekends. It’s one of my most requested brunch meals at home!

Other favorites: pulled pork, beer can chicken, wings, burgers of all types, cold smoked salmon (for bagels & lox), smoked rosemary cashews, and lot’s of grilled vegetables.

Traeger

The reason we love cooking pizza on the Traeger is because it gets very hot, very quickly. For this recipe we recommend 500° F. I don’t like cranking my indoor oven that high no matter what the season so this works so much better. It’s a great spring/summer appliance when the weather starts to get nice. And it’s fun that you can impart the wood-fired flavor to your pizza too.

How To Cook Pizza On A Pellet Grill The Easy Way

Start by liberally sprinkling the countertop and dough with plenty of coarse cornmeal for that added textural component (it makes a noticeable difference).

Another dough tip: if you buy it from the refrigerated section like we do, make sure you let it come closer to room temperature before you stretch it out. If you skip this step, it will spring back into a ball. Conversely, don’t let it sit out

There are several ways to transfer your pizza to the grill but we like to use parchment paper. Line a cookie sheet (one with no edges) or cutting board. Once you place the uncooked pizza dough on top, use scissors to cut around it, removing excess paper. This prevents it from scorching and catching fire.

A really important step: put a pizza stone on the grill while it’s heating up so the surface gets nice and hot. This is how you get that super crispy crust on the bottom! There’s nothing worse than a floppy piece of pizza. Because you have the parchment underneath, it will be super easy to slide on and off the hot stone.

Our favorite variation is the one pictured (the first bullet point listed, and the one you’ll find in the recipe card below). We do like to get creative sometimes and try the others too. I would recommend going lighter on toppings than you think you should, so you don’t weigh down the crust. Once you make it a few times, you’ll be able to eye-ball it without a problem.

We never make dough from scratch because
