Grilled Pizza

Friday night is pizza night. However, since this has been the case for a long time, we sometimes get sick of pizza. Rather than give up on our tradition, we decided to try something new. Grilled pizza! We watched videos on youtube of that Steven Raichlen dude, you know, the grill king, to learn how to make your dough not fall through the cracks. Turns out there is really no trick. You have to make it thin, but that is about it. Cook it till you get the fancy lines on one side, then flip it and put your toppings on. It is faster and way less messy in my kitchen.

Another fun development is baby pizza! We make a baby sized one and the kid scarfs it up. He will eat his whole pizza. He likes mushroom, pepper and onions, if you are curious. For my new style of pizza, I have been using BBQ sauce instead of Italian style, with chicken, bacon, onions, mushrooms and sometimes peppers. It is super good, and it compliments the smoky flavor from being grilled. I am all about pizza night these days!
