Title: Flatbread style pizza right on the grate
Post by: Thrillho on April 30, 2017, 08:55:40 PM

Having yet to invest in a dedicated pizza stone, or jump all in with a Kettle Pizza, I've been making a lot of pizzas directly on the grill grate.

It's more of a reverse flatbread pizza, than a traditional pie. Today I made the leap to making my own dough for the first time, Bobby Flay's recipe (noticed so many WKC members love this recipe).

Made two pies. One Salami and black olives, the second Clams, bacon and rosemary.

I place the dough on direct heat for 1-2 minutes. Basically once it starts to bubble a bit, I flip it and do the other side for about 30 seconds.

I then move the dough to indirect heat and add the toppings. Close the grill and wait 5-7 minutes for the cheese to melt and the crust to get nice and crunchy.

I was mostly happy with my first home made dough. Pies were, a bit thicker than I'd prefer, but I think that was mostly due to my rushing when stretching out the dough (I was starving!).

Dang! Those pizzas look good man! Nic crust. 
Pizza is still something Ive yet to try on the grill. This looks like a perfect way to go.
