Recipe

Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 8 mins Ready Time: 28 mins


• start charcoal fire or preheat gas grill to medium-high heat.
• combine 2 cups flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. add very warm water and oil; mix until well blended, about 1 minute. gradually add enough flour to make a soft dough. dough should form a ball and will be slightly sticky. knead** on a floured surface, adding additional flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic but not sticky, about 5 minutes.
• divide dough into 8 portions. pat or roll dough on a well-floured counter to about 8-inch circles; they do not need to be perfect.
• brush both sides of crust with additional oil. using hands, lift each crust carefully and place on grill. cook for 3 to 4 minutes until bottom is lightly browned and top looks set. using long handled tongs, remove crust from grill, grilled side up, to a platter or baking sheet.
• lightly add sauce and top the grilled side of each pizza crust. excess sauce or toppings makes the pizza hard to handle. repeat with remaining pizzas.
• carefully slide each pizza the grill. cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes until bottom of crust is browned and cheese is melted. remove from grill and serve immediately.
