Tom, my cousin’s husband (who I refer to as my cousin, but they like me to clarify that they are not cousins who got married) 🙂 made the most delicious pizza on the grill. It was quite simple, here are the steps he followed:

  1. We went the the Giant Eagle bakery and bought 1 lb of Italian bread dough.
  2. Cut dough in 2 equal balls. Knead dough out into discs with fingers leaving edges a little thicker and both sides well floured.  
  3. Heat grill to 500 degrees then cut flame to 1/2-3/4 flame (to prevent flame burn) right when dough goes on.  
  4. Put dough on grate for 20 seconds…then rotate 90 degrees for another 20 seconds…then flip over for 30 seconds and pull off.  
  5. We put the toppings on the crosshatched side…we put olive oil over whole crust, then Mid’s Homestyle pizza sauce topped with pre-sauted onions, thin sliced red, orange, and yellow peppers, mozzarella, and fresh basil…one I also put thin sliced chicken breast on top.  
  6. We then put it back on the grill (@ 500 degrees) for about 4-5 min.
  7. It was delicious! I got the tips on grill temp and time from an article in last month’s Men’s Health.  
  8. Enjoy…
