grilling pizza? topping ideas?
| Mon, 06-04-2007 - 7:22am |
I've been thinking of trying to grill pizza (after reading the raves about this) but I'm not really sure I know how. And I dont know what I toppings to try. My DH is a standard pepperoni and cheese guy but I'm always up for trying something new. So whats on your pizza?

I love to grill onions and zucchini first.
I've never, ever been a fan of "American style" pizza since my dad was born and raised in Italy. So I've never really like the whole pepperoni thing since I was used to the "real" pizza my grandma made at home - and trust me, there was NO pepperoni anywhere near it!
We use zucchini, onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, asparagus chunks, artichoke hearts, spinach, pesto, garlic, pinenuts, etc. But my absolute favorite pizza is Pizza Margarita - a very traditional Naples style pizza. Its just tomato, fresh mozzarella, garlic and fresh basil.

DH loves to grill pizza. He's usually lazy and starts with the Boboli whole wheat crust. We drizzle a little olive oil on heavy duty aluminum foil and grill it on that. The kids prefer sausage (I use turkey italian sausage links and squeeze it out of the casing before browning it). DH likes turkey pepperoni. I prefer veggies--spinach, mushroom, red onion & artichoke hearts. Cathy's pizza sounds really good, think I'll give that a try!

So is the boboli WW allowed?
Also, do you just grill te crust with alittle olive oil on it directly on the grill and THEN add the toppings? Are the toppings on it while it grills? Does a charcoal vs gas grill matter?

I've never grilled crust, but I would imagine that you would cook it directly on the grates (low flame). I would put the pizza together with toppings first.
Okay, between this and the other post about homemade pizza, I think I'm gonna have to try it! I've printed out the Amazing Whole Wheat Pizza Crust recipe and plan to make it toward the end of the week. I'll even try grilling it! This should be interesting....I've never made any kind of bread before or had to buy yeast for anything.
