Here's a quick and simple recipe for Halloween night or anytime you want to add a little whimsical fun to your recteq cooks! To up the ante, cook this in our recteq Pizza Oven or our Pizza Stone.

Instructions

Step 1: Chef’s Note: While all our pizza recipes can be cooked to perfection on any recteq, for that authentic, wood-fired flavor and crispy crust, nothing beats results from the recteq Pizza Oven. It’s compatible with many of our grill models and brings pizzeria-quality results right to your backyard.
Step 2: Preheat the recteq Bullseye with the Pizza Stone at 500º. (If you have the Bullseye Deluxe, you can increase the temperature to 600ºF-650ºF for a quicker cook).
Step 3: Sprinkle the Pizza Peel with the semolina or cornmeal to help keep the dough from sticking.
Step 4: Stretch the dough in a 14 inch circle, place the dough on the Pizza Peel, and slightly pull out the sides to create arms for the ghost.
Step 5: Using a spoon, spread the sauces evenly across the dough, top with the shredded mozzarella, add the olives to create eyes, and arrange the pepperoni to create a mouth. Add the Lil' Smokies for arms.
Step 6: Add the pizza to the stone by placing the Pizza Peel on the stone and with a quick motion, pull the Peel away, allowing the dough to slide off onto the stone.
Step 7: Allow the pizza to bake for 8-10 minutes, until the dough has become evenly browned and the cheese melted.
Step 8: Remove the pizza by sliding the Pizza Peel underneath the dough. Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing with the Mezzaluna Cutter.
