Grill Your Pizza

I like making pizza. It’s a bit silly given the incredible pizza options in Brooklyn, but it’s a fun family thing to do. My wife gave me a pizza stone for Fathers Day. The summer flew by, we were on vacation, etc. so I hadn’t tried it. Last week I finally gave it a shot. We typically make several small pizzas so we did one on the stone (on our grill) and the rest the conventional way in case it didn’t work well. I didn’t have a pizza peel to get it on/off the grill (didn’t even know it was called a peel) so I had no idea how it would work.

It was yummy. Basically identical pizzas, but done on the grill at 600 degrees (the stone pre-heats on the grill) made the crust much better. You definitely need the pizza peel, so I ordered one from Amazon. My wife picked up a second pizza stone so we could make two at once. It only takes 5 minutes to cook at that temperature, so we can crank out 4 pizzas in 10 minutes.

We will be grilling pizza from now on…
