I do it all the time. At work but will explain later. And yes I use a stone. I just bring temp up slow.

My family does this all the time on our gas grill. It is fantastic.

1. Roll the dough and place on a hot grill - make sure it is clean and you might try hitting it with some cooking oil so it won't stick.

2. When the bottom is nice and brown, take it off and bring into the kitchen. Then FLIP IT OVER so that you put the toppings on the browned side.

3. Bring back to the grill, cook the bottom and the toppings.

4. Remove when done and eat it.

Yum Yum.

I've done it this way a few times too. Comes out great.
A little oil on the dough. Cook it on one side, then flip it, at which point you add toppings. Cook another few minutes, and enjoy!

I am a pizzaholic with a commercial oven in my garage. You will find PizzaMaking.com - Pizza Making, Pizza Recipes, and More! to be a great knowledge base for almost any kind of pizza question you can come up with

I cook pizza's all the time on my grill.

The problem: I don't eat red meat. Due to a problem with high cholesterol, I don't eat red meat or pork or eggs, which smell like sewage anyway. From my 6 miles per day running habit and my careful diet, I have a cholesterol level of 190, with 100 good/85 bad. My brother, 6 years younger, has to take drugs to keep his cholesterol under control, and I am proud that I don't have to.

Pizza's on the grill! Since my grill only sees salmon or chicken, it has little taste. I made a pizza on my DAD's grill last year, and dad eats ALL the kielbasa and twice the BEEF.... and the cheap frozen pizza I put on their grill came out OUTSTANDING! OH my gawd that pizza was good! It had all the smoky steak flavor of every steak dad had done on his grill, and put to shame any fresh pizza that Asheville, North Carolina could produce! For once, dad was actually impressed-

[that's probably not good...but it was nice none theless~]

N!

I mentioned that I spent a month in China with my new wife... meeting my in-laws... meeting my stepson...

We were walking around the embassy district in Beijing....and I spied a pizza pie :-)

Found a great Pizza joint in Beijing... in Sanlitun St... called " The Tree"

Wood fired beehive stove...


This pie had artichoke, olive, and prosciutto as toppings.... per my wifes request... I wanted plain margherita, but..

I loved the food in China.. but finding some amazing Pizza was a sort of highlight to my trip...

Now I just have to wait for the wheels of immigration to turn :rolleyes:

Vash,
I know it is too late to comment on yesteday's bbq, but for future reference, Frankie Jonny and Luigie Too sells their dough raw.

I do this regularly, without a stone (which I use in the oven). I find that if I do not cook the crust first without toppings, it never cooks all the way through. Best is probably one side cooked, flip, put on toppings, then cook other side. Apply olive oil liberally on both sides.

As Tabs said, it happens quick.

pictures tonight!

i was woefully unprepared. i had chopped a bunch of toppings..but having your wife run around saying, "what else can we use?" is not great. also, doing it on a hot day is not great. i got hot!

my best pie was garden tomatoes, cheese, garden basil. i drizzled great olive oil, some great french sea salt..delicious!

tabs is correct...everything happened very very fast.

Right on the grill at this house!

Tell me more..... My oven doesn't work currently.... I could cook my frozen pizzas on the gas grill until it is fixed....

I use a stone. My method.

Grill has 3 burners + sear burner, set all on high.

Pre-heat the grill and stone. Mine gets to 650-700F

Prepare pizza on a metal pizza pan. Press dough out thin, and easy on the sauce to keep from getting soggy.

Place pizza pan on hot stone, shut lid. Done in 4-5 minutes, with nice charring on the bottom of the crust.

Syd, saw a grill with cast iron grates for 99$ at Academy(great price), never buy anything else with wire grates cast iron is way to go , like cast iron skillet

porsche4life 06-28-2010 07:25 PM

My frozen pizza was good... A little over done on the bottom tho... I just need a bigger grill to get a better indirect heat.... I'll have to try again on dads grill... Its big and well seasoned...

Some of the best Pizza i had is from a place called Nino's across the street from my house in Shanghai. Owner is from Nepals, married a Chinese and opened the place. Gourmet stuff for the price of dominos delivered.

BTW, how do you make the dough for grilling pizza? Just flour and water ok?
