Rather than offer a tome regarding last night's grilled pizza dinner, I'll post photos with smidge of description.Ingredients sprinkled among the four pizzas included Trader Joe's fresh pizza dough, pizza sauce (next time I shall endeavor to make my own), red bell pepper, yellow onion slices, live basil, pepperoni, fresh mozzarella, parmesan and romano cheeses, a small kettle grill and supremely hot coals.
It's difficult to properly cook the toppings in a lilliputian grill such as mine. (For some reason I prefer the intimacy of a tiny grill.) Given a larger unit and ample space to set coals off to the side (best for indirect cooking), thermal convection would work even better -- allowing more thorough cooking of the toppings.
Still, grilled pizza is particularly satisfying -- especially the crust char. Try it sometime. It might just blow your mind.
Those look wonderful!! Great pictures.

ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention that the leftovers were splendid the following day. The lack of grease in the dough and toppings (I used pepperoni sparingly on just two of the pizzas) was a refreshing change from the leaden nature of day-after commercial pizza.
