Pizza On The Grill

The grill is good for almost everything. You can cook the old standards such as dogs and burgers on them, get experimental with any kind if fish or kabobs, and even cook fruit. However you can use your grill as an outdoor pizzeria. You can create delicious pies right out in the open air.

How do you bake pizza on a grill? There are two ways.One is to mix the dough and roll it out on a cookie sheet.Then slide it onto the grill for two minutes and then flip so that the other bakes. The other way is placing the dough on a pizza stone. This is a round, thick plate that's usually made from ceramic or earthenware. After the dough starts to rise,brush with olive oil and then tomato sauce. Add cheese and toppings and then cover for two to three minutes more. If your grill doesn't have a cover you can tent aluminum foil over the pie as a kind of out door oven.

Toppings for outdoor pizza can be as varied as an inside one. For a garden fresh one, sub in fresh picked beefsteak tomatoes and freshly picked basil instead of sauce and the dried herb. Barbecued steak or chicken also make great additions,especially the steak, Cook the meat rare and let the juices mix in with the sauce. You can also try a seafood one by adding some chopped clams mussels and oysters along with shrimp. Another fun outdoor pizza topping is crumbled hamburger on top.

There's nothing like pizza on the grill. You can make a fantastic tasting outdoors one in just seconds.It's a perfect alternative to traditional dogs and burgers.
