This is a bit of an oddball question but I recently did a pizza on my traeger and want to duplicate that flavor for a take and bake pizza for my ice cream and sandwich shop. The traeger doesn,t have the capacity to do enough at one time. Does anybody out there have any experience with this or something similar. I want to make them , smoke or par cook them then display in cooler by the register.Thanks

Bradroe,

I'm going to move this down to the Pros forum, since you want to do this on a commercial level.

And it seems strange for ice cream/sandwich to add pizza, but if there is a market go for it.

A smoker will not be good for doing pizza's, it won't get hot enough. A grill will, but you'll be limited in capacity to some degree.

Also, will your HD allow open grills, some get pretty picky.

The issue you're going to find is "quantity". Trying to replicate a flame/grilled pizza can be done, but you've got to figure out capacity and method.

There are plenty of grills out there with enough room to handle it, but not a lot of pellet grills. The new CS Charbroiler with 4 burners is 100% pellets. The traegers are NOT rated for commercial use (maybe one or two are now, but they used to not have one, I don't know for sure).

You might think about a conventional pizza oven but smoke the ingredients.
I do pizza from time to time on the 025 elete and I think its great. Maybe my favorite pizza anywhere. Different from the very hot ovens used in restuarants but maybe better in my opinion. I basically use Karen Hoogendoorn recipe from the Cookshack sevice area of the web site. I do make my own crust however and grill it on both sides then add my own home made sauce and toppings and put it in the Smoker an hour and rotate for 30 more minutes. I can't help with your commercial use question, but this has been my experience.
