Ever make pizza on your grill?

[QSis]

I've done it, tupperware, but I flipped it over after a couple of minutes on the first side. THEN I topped it and closed the lid again.

It's been 10 years since I've used a gas grill at home, so I make pizzas on a stone in the oven now. But the grilled ones were a fun novelty! I couldn't believe they came out so well, without sticking to the grate!

OK, this is on the menu for this week.

Now, toppings.... salmon and what? :D

Swiss Chard and Pine Nuts! A light dusting of Parmigiano Reggiano.

I've never flipped the crusts... too thin.

My favorite is pesto, goat cheese, and roasted garlic and a few pieces of olive, but of course the grandchildren think that's gross so it's homemade tomato sauce and cheese, and slivered pepperoni.

My favorite is (in the summertime) sliced fresh tomatoes, slivered garlic, chopped fresh herbs -- then drizzled with very good evoo when it comes off the grill. No cheese!

I've done it several times, although it has always been with bought dough or a ready made crust like a Boboli. I have a Big Green Egg and pizza stone, and the smoke from the lump charcoal really adds a nice flavor.

I like to take the small Boboli crust and put them top side down on the grill to warm. Then I brush them with olive oil on both sides and put on my toppings and put them back on the grill until down. I do like to brown the top with a broiler though. I use this method on my gas grill.

how does that work? i'm imagining lots of cheese...maybe because i just love melted cheese i'm imagining a bit more ha

Panzarotti is known as Calzone too. Calzone is larger and baked. Panzarotti can be baked also. It's basically a pizza folded over and crimped. It is then baked or fried.

Also tasty to grill some chicken breasts before hand, cube them, mix the cubes with some barbecue sauce (sweet baby rays would be my preference) and then put them on the pizza before grilling it.
