Pizza on the Grill

Last weekend I finally tried cooking a pizza on the grill (ours is gas). It was surprizingly easy, and man was that pizza delicious!

Here's how to do it:

- Place baking stone on the grill and turn the heat on high.

- Close the lid and let the grill/stone heat up for about an hour (temp. should be 500-550 degrees)

- Slide prepared pizza* onto the baking stone and close the lid.

- Cook 5 minutes, until cheese is melted and crust is golden on the bottom.

*I made my pizza dough in a bread machine (it knows when to knead and when to let the dough rest--and I don't have to babysit it). My husband gently tossed the dough and shaped it into a 12-inch pie, then we added a light coating of sauce, sliced tomatoes, fresh basil and fresh mozzarella. YUM!

Can't wait to try it again when friends come over for a BBQ!

I love pizza and that looks divine! What time is dinner? I'll bring the wine.

Thanks for the recipe. Have thought about trying a pizza on the BBQ since my nephew hates hamburgers....never really knew where to start. Will give this a try soon
