Grilled Pizza on a Pizza Stone: The Ultimate Recipe for Pizza Lovers!

Grilling pizza is a fun and delicious way to enjoy this classic comfort food. It is one of our favorite ways to have a pizza night on Friday. You can customize your pizza with your favorite toppings, making it a unique and tasty treat for you and your loved ones.

Preparing the Dough:

The first step to making your delicious vegetable grilled pizza is to prepare the dough. You can either make your own dough or buy pre-made dough from your local grocery store. In this recipe, I used a premade fresh pizza dough that we get at our local grocery store. I take it out of the fridge in the early afternoon so that it gets to room temperature.

Preparing the Vegetables:

Now it’s time to sauté the vegetables. Choose your favorite vegetables such as bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and zucchini. Sautéing the vegetables before adding them to the pizza will give them a more robust flavor. Heat up a pan with some olive oil and cook the veggies until they’re tender.

Equipment Needed for Grilles Pizza:

• Outdoor Grille ( can use your home oven)
• Pizza Peel
• Large metal spatula
• Pizza stone (can use a cookie sheet)

Ingredients for Grilled Pizza:

• Premade Pizza Dough (fresh or frozen)
• Basil and Oregano 
• Pizza sauce
• Onion
• Peppers
• Mushrooms
• Any vegetable you like
• Mozzarella Cheese

How to Make the Perfect Pizza on Your Grill:

1. Have your fresh or frozen pizza dough thawed and at room temperature.
2. Preheat your grill to 400 degrees
3. The vegetables taste best when cut to medium size and sauteed in a skillet to pre-cook and get them soft. 
4. On the pizza stone spread out the dough as large as you can.
5. Place the pizza stone with the pizza dough on it on the grill and close the lid. 
6. Cook the first side for 6 to 7 minutes
7. With the pizza, peel flip the dough over on the other side and close the grill lid, and cook another 6 to 7 minutes. 
8. When the crust is cooked but not burnt remove the pizza stone with the pizza on it with the pizza peel and set it on your counter. (by pre-cooking the dough on each side you have a soft but not soggy crust when done)
9. Start assembling the pizza: sprinkle the basil and oregano, and layer on a thin layer of pizza sauce. Add the sauteed vegetables or any raw vegetables. (you can also add any meat like pepperoni at this time)
10. Next layer the shredded cheese on top.
11. Take the pizza stone with the pizza back to the grille with the pizza peel. 
12. Cook again for 6 to 7 minutes and you have the perfect grilled pizza. 
13. Slice and serve

Recipe Tips and Variations:

• If you don’t have a pizza stone, you can use a baking sheet instead.
• To make the pizza crust thinner, use a rolling pin to roll it out.
• Add additional toppings to your pizza, such as sliced mushrooms, olives, or diced tomatoes.
• For a meat-lover’s pizza, add cooked crumbled sausage, sliced pepperoni, or chopped bacon.
