By this point in the grilling season, I've grown tired of the various critters and veggies I've been burning up all summer on the grill and I want to try something different. I was flipping channels the other day and saw a cooking show with a guy making pizza on his grill.

I've found the necessary tips and instructions on the intarwebz, but I'm curious if anybody here has tried it before and has tips/recipes to share. I'm going to try it this afternoon and stock up on the grocery store cheater pizza crusts for followup attempts. I read some pizza shops will sell you just dough. Anybody ever done that?

I haven't tried grilling pizza but I've grilled bread before. Sliced thick and brushed with Italian dressing or butter and garlic, a couple minutes on each side over medium heat. It's pretty good that way.

Let us know how it turns out.

We grill pizza a few times a year. I know what you mean by getting a little bored with steaks, chicken, burgers, and dogs. But anyway just last week we made a couple seafood pizza's on the grill. Had shrimp and crabmeat on them along with cheese, garlic, onions, mushrooms, and a lot of old bay. Be careful with the temperature. The pizzas cook much faster than in the oven and you should keep checking the dough you don't want it to burn and ruin the pizza. Another good idea is to get large tortilla shells and stuff them or make mini pizzas using them as you crust. Now they cook VERY quick.

Wow, that sounds good, HagO!

Will try that.

My bro-in-law does a nice salad on the grill! No kidding. He uses Romaine lettuce coated with an oil based salad dressing and puts it on the aluminum foil. He must poke some holes in it because the lettuce ends up with grill marks across it. It's really good. Would work nicely with that pizza.

I've heard people who can't cook, joke about burning the salad... but this takes it to a whole new level.

You jinxed me, hagopinion. I burnt the bottom of the pie like you wouldn't believe. The grilling directions I had said to grill one side 5-10 minutes over medium heat, take it off, add goodies to the grilled side, put back on grill until cheese melted. I checked it at the 5 minute mark and found the crust to be black and on fire.

I went ahead and made it for practice. The melted cheese, pepperonis, and pre-grilled mushrooms turned out great, but the blackened pizza dough was just too gross to eat too much of it. Oh well, I'll be armed with knowledge when I try it again one night this week.
