Grilled Pizza

I have been hearing about folks grilling pizza instead of baking it in the oven for awhile now...and it sounds so good.  I mean, for the most part, I think anything cooked on the grill is the best way to go.  I was lazy and used a store bought crust instead of homemade, but I think this made it a little easier for the first try.  The crust was refrigerated (Target brand 3 cheese crust) but wasn't doughy - does that make sense?  We ended up cooking it a little too long (correction: my husband didn't take it off when I told him to!) but it was still super tasty and a fun new way to cook pizza.















There really isn't a recipe, top the pizza crust with whatever toppings you want.  Everything I read online said to keep the toppings light when cooking on the grill, otherwise you might end up with a burned crust and raw toppings.  We cooked ours on a gas grill on medium high heat for 5 minutes, then took it off and put it on top of the cold pizza stone and put it back on the grill with the lid closed for another 10 minutes or so...until the cheese was melty, bubbly, and starting to brown.  Yum, yum, yum!  I love pizza night!
