I also don't cook at high heat. I like toppings on my pizza and a medium crust. I end up cooking at about 475, and it ends up perfect. I get my dough and ingredients from Lina's. It's not junk food, as we make vegetarian pizza (ex: pear and Gorgonzola) that is amazing.
Man I love pizza, make it once a week, and my toddler son helps make his own cheese pizza. Really fun experience.

I cook mine on the Bubba Keg (essentially the steel version of the BGE) and it's awesome. I made a deep dish on there a few years ago and I have been chasing the dragon ever since! Just not quite as amazing as the first one I made, but still so much better than any restaurant. I make my own dough and cook at 450 for 25-30 minutes. I cook normal pizzas at the same temperature but for closer to 7 mins.
I also cook pizza over the campfire at least a couple times a year. Just so good!!
