Great Grilled Pizza
Rating (0 Rated)
Does the thought of firing up your oven in the middle of summer make you break into a sweat? Same here. Does the thought of going the whole summer without a homemade pizza make you want to cry? Been there. We’re suckers for summer grilling, we love making pizza, and we were convinced long ago that you could do both at the same time. Now, this is nothing like what you might expect. There’s no dough dripping through the grates or flamed out crusts. In fact, everything you love about grilling and pizza come together in one imperfect circle. Smoky flavors, melted cheese, and simple, quality ingredients take center stage for this impossibly simple summer meal.

Directions

Step 1. Organize your ingredients. Have everything to top your pizza ready at the grill, including your floured and rolled dough (use your favorite pizza dough recipe or buy a pre-made dough like Outpost’s).

Step 2. Oil one side of the dough and slide onto a HOT grill over direct heat (we used a 550 degree charcoal grill, with hardwood charcoal) uncovered for about 3 minutes. Turn dough on the grill and continue grilling covered for 2 more minutes. Check for hot spots to avoid burned crust. A little charring is great, but a burned crust isn’t the goal. The crust will puff and bubble, but won’t be crispy at this stage.

Step 3. With tongs, flip your pizza and quickly top with your assembled ingredients. Don’t overload the pizza or your toppings won’t heat through.

Step 4. Cover and grill for 3 to 5 minutes, turning frequently. The edges should be crisp and well done, the cheese will melt, and the toppings will be heated through. Remove pizza from the grill onto a board, and let rest for 3 minutes before cutting.
