Grilled Reuben Pizza and How To Make Grilled Pizza

How To: Make Grilled Pizza. And a grilled Reuben Pizza recipe via @DomesticFits Grilled pizza is my favorite way to make homemade pizza right now. On the rare occasion that I think about it a day ahead of time, I like to make this pizza dough, but if I’ve only got an hour, I use this one hour pizza dough recipe. The grill gives the dough a nice lightness with just a bit of crunch from the high heat. There are a few things to keep in mind when grillin' up a pizza, but overall, it’s really quick and simple.

To start, make sure you have all of your topping ingredients, sauce and shredded cheese ready to go and next to the grill before you throw the dough on. The process can move a bit fast and you don’t want to be running back and forth to the kitchen to grab what you forgot.

Preheat the grill to medium high.

Roll out your dough on a floured surface.

You’ll have to move the dough to something that you can carry to the grill. The best option is a pizza peel, if you have one, they are a great tool when grilling pizza.

Next, brush the dough on one side with olive oil.

Transfer the dough to a hot grill, oiled side down (you can also try sliding it onto the grill without oiling it, but there is a chance it will stick). If you’re using a pizza peel, you can flip it like a pancake onto the grill (it’s what I do) or have someone help you transfer it. That’s the hardest part, once you get that down, it’s pretty simple.

Next, brush the top side with olive oil.

The dough will have stiffened by now, making flipping the dough pretty easy. Use the peel if you have it, or a large grill spatula.

I really really want to try grilled pizza. I’ve just always been so scared it’ll either melt through the grates or stick. I’m not exactly the griller in the family 😉 Yours gives me hope!

I have never grilled a whole pizza before, only little pizza crisps. Now I feel as though I need to grill a nice big pizza because yours looks amazing. I love those grill marks and the reuben topping? Holy YUM!
Plus, this is just another excuse for me to finally get that pizza peel I have been wanting for months!

I LOVE this. LOVE LOVE LOVE. I just started grilling pizzas a couple of weeks ago for our Friday night pizza night and now I wish I could grill pizza all year round. But alas, Seattle weather does not want me to. So I might as well do it every chance I get this summer! This might just be the next one I grill up.
