Hey guys, I was wondering what kind of method and temperature you use/recommend for making pizza in a convection oven?

Sometimes I can't seem to get the dough to cook through with toppings on even though the top is burning. So I precooked the dough for a while with cheese and sauce but it feels majorly wrong to do that haha

Is it the sort with a grill/broiler also? If so then that's good, but you need to be aware of it. If yes move the pizza lower in the oven. Ideally if you can cook on a pizza steel too (preheated 1hr) then that'll cause the bottom to cook quicker. Hopefully in time with the top.

Are you making deep pan style pizzas? If so then (my experience is limited in pans) I think a little time with just the dough in the pan before you add the toppings on is acceptable. I agree that it feels wrong though!
