The Amazing Pizza on the Grill by Kitling

In a way I hate it when someone thinks of something before I should have thought of it. But even if I had, I probably wouldn't have taken the plunge and thrown a perfectly good pizza dough on a hot grill. But check this out! My friend, "Kitling", just did it! And it's unbelievably great!

If you like a thin crust pizza, this is the ticket. It cooks really, really fast over the hot flame. Kitling did it on a high flame on a gas grill. I can't wait to try it over mesquite coals for that added smoky flavor. You just won't believe until you've tried it! I used the no-knead recipe to make the dough for Kitling. She usually uses a store-bought batch. This technique really replicates a real pizza oven, in that a real wood-fired pizza oven gets incredibly hot and the pizze cook very quickly. God in heaven!

Looks good and "entertaining". I would change only 2 things.......
1- Use the our no knead dough (as Johnny mentions)
2- Lose the spray can of oil as it is folly to use around open flame. (The kids might find it "cool" and decide to experiment when you're not around.)

Lisa (Gibbs) did this a few years ago on one of her visits with Judy. I was just as amazed. It was a little burned on the bottom, but I chalk that up to Patrick's two cents......he interferred just a little bit as this was quite new to him at the time also.

Yeah, yeah.........what do you know? You're just a punk kid!

This video never ceases to amaze me just for the simple fact she sprays a flammable substance on the fire and could have went up in flames her self. But, this is how one learns (if they live to attempt it again).

If someone does not want to make their own broth they can use store broth. However, just to keep in mind, the next time you grill some "bone-in" steaks, save the bones in the freezer and use later for your broth production. This all in one pot met...

Of course you are referring to the use of cleavers in the kitchen regarding their use, handling and safety.

Usually I finish this soup in individual serving bowls by ladling the soup in, covering with croutons and cheese and broiling. This time I put the croutons and cheese in the cooking pot and baked in a very hot oven to get a "pizza effect" on the s...
