Oh, Denise, you simply MUST get a copy of "Pizza, Pizza, Pizza"! I do the dough pretty thin, 'cause we like our crust thin and crispy. I prep all my toppings in bowls on a tray so I'll be ready. I couldn't believe how easy it was the first time...and SOOOO GOOD! I rub the grate with a little oil and slide on the crust. Close your lid and wait about 4-7 minutes. It should puff up and be slightly golden on bottom. Remove from the grill, flip it, add toppings (be sure to use CUBES of cheese UNDER your toppings) and slide back on the grill. Close the top and allow to cook another 6 minutes...until the bottom is golden and cheese is melted. YUMMMY!
Today, I'm making Jean's marinara and pizza dough. That pizza will be topped with William's favorites: mozz. and cheddar cheese "pillows", ham strips, pepperoni slices, cooked Italian sausage, carmelized onions, and anchovies.
The other pizza, Jean's recipe will make 2 pizza crusts, will have either regular basil pesto or sun-dried tomato pesto. I haven't decided what I want on that one, yet. I'll post when I decide.
You really MUST try this! I was so intimidated the first time! But it went off without a hitch! William thought I was crazy the first time, but now he refuses to let me do it any other way. If I have pizza planned and it's pouring rain, he'll make me wait for another day...LOL!
