I love these pizza photos I have been seeing lately. From you Kamado pizza experts I need advice. When I first got my Vision grill I was doing pizza on it with some success. I keep the thing clean. Obviously, I never use lighter fluid. All of the sudden, my pizza started tasting like smoke. This was especially strong on any veggies I put on the pizza. This coincided with the period in which I was experimenting with different lump charcoals. I would get the same result time after time. So I just gave up. I can cook a pretty nice pizza in my stick burner with pretty good results. One of the things I wanted from the Kamado was the pizza cooking, though.

I experienced the same thing on one of my smokers. Traced it back to one of two things (I solved them both at the same time so I cant tell you witch it was) a bad batch of wood, and heavy creosote in the drip pan. hope this helps.

A trick my wife taught me. Spray it with white vinegar (don't know if it is safe for your camodo) and scrape, spray again and repeat till clean. the vinegar helps dissolve the fat. made it look almost new!!!!

she said that is how she cleans the dishwasher... I said "so you bathe in vinegar...?" went over like a lead balloon.

What temp were you cooking those pizzas? I'd do a very high heat clean out to clean your Vision, don't spray anything on there. There should be no smoke smell if you're cooking at high temps.

I can say at close to 1100, my first NY style yesterday night cooked in about 2 minutes... That is a gusee of course, my digital Oregon scientific went into error, and the ambient on the pizza oven pegged out over 800 I believe. whole oven was cherry red except the heat shroud on top.
