Yes, BBQ'ng a pizza
Heat up the grill, assembly the pie, slide it on, a couple minutes later we're eating!
Activities like this always start with a beer
Most of the critical items came from Trader Joe's, i.e., dough and sauce and some of the cheese, the rest is the grocery store round the corner.
We made two pies, one with wheat crust and the other regular. If you've dabbled in making a pie at home and aren't familiar with Trader Joe's dough then I recommend a try. It's just over a buck and tastes great and is easy to use. Same comments on the sauce. Both are huge time savers.
Here's the rest of the fixin's
A sprinkle of oregano is always a nice touch
We went for the wheat first
Ready for the grill
The plan was to crank up the temp as hot as it would go, slide in the pie, turn off the burners, see what happened. Dennis rubbed.....olive oil on the grating as well, this would become important later...
600 degrees, in we go!
Grandma has as look from the backside..
OK, looks really good, smelled amazing.
We rotated the pie after a few minutes and the heat was dropping rapidly so we turned a few burners back on to continue the cooking, which ended up burning the underside of half the pie.
It still tasted great.
YUMMMMMMM!!!!!!
On to the next one. We used the standard dough and we decided to put the raw sausage on the very top, we weren't entirely sure that the sausage had cooked the first time around.....We're both still alive so it ended up being a safe gamble.
And, in true DVA fashion, I forgot to take an after shot of this one... UGHH!!!!!!!
but at least we had another beer, or 10.
What we learned from this pie, and there's a lesson to be learned from every pie you eat, is that coating the grating with oil stops stuff from sticking, amazing thought! So yeah, half the pie stuck as I was turning it, and it still might be on the grill, knowing Dennis.... Ehhh, we'll clean it when we use it next.
Get ur grill out, oil it up, slide on a pie. It's summer, enjoy.
Grill more pie
