I know Meathead has not been impressed with the aftermarket pizza cooking devices available. I have been researching the KettlePizza device and noticed the biggest complaint was not getting the toppings cooked while the crust over-cooked. The dome of the kettle appears to be too high above the cooking surface.
Enter the $79 Pizza Que found at Home Depot. The ring used to rest the dome on is much lower and even lower in the back. A wire basket is used to maintain the charcoal behind and to the sides of the cooking stone. The temperature reading on the included gauge ended up maxing out at 1000 degrees! My pizzas were evenly cooked, pepperoni even a little burnt on one (my fault, crust was way too thick!) Cooking time was 4-5 minutes, turning 90 degrees half way through.
This performed well beyond my expectations, I now will concentrate on various doughs.
