Is it too hot to cook indoors but you are craving a delicious homemade pizza? Well pizzas are not just meant to be cooked indoors anymore! Outdoor pizza ovens are becoming more and more popular for patios. You can even cook a great tasting pizza on a regular ol’ charcoal grill, or a gas grill for more convenience.

An outdoor pizza oven is a wonderful addition to your outdoor patio for cooking. They are not just for cooking pizza either; you can cook breads, deserts, and much, much more! Pizza ovens are either gas or wood-fired. Pretty much anything that you can cook in your standard oven you will be able to cook in a gas pizza oven. Authentic Wood-fired pizza ovens are great for cooking pizzas to perfection. Keep your house nice and cool this summer and do all of you cooking outdoors on the grill or in a pizza oven.

10 Minute Pizza Crust for the Grill

First lets start off with a great recipe for the crust. This recipe is simple and will cook wonderfully on the heat of your grill or pizza oven.

Directions:

1. Start charcoal fire or preheat gas grill to medium-high heat.
2. Combine 2 cups flour, yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl.
3. Add very warm water and oil; mix until well blended. Approximately 1 minute.
4. Gradually add enough remaining flour to make a soft dough ball. Dough should form a ball and will be slightly sticky.
5. Knead on a lightly floured surface, adding additional flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic. Approximately 5 minutes. (I use the dough hook on my mixer and it works beautifully. Just continue adding flour as necessary.)
6. Divide dough into 6-8 portions.
7. Pat or roll dough on a well-floured surface until they reach the size and thickness you desire. You want these pizzas to look rustic. I.e. not perfect.
8. Brush both sides of pizza crusts with olive oil.
9. Lift each crust carefully with hands and place on grill.
10. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until bottom is lightly browned and top looks done.
11. Remove crust from grill and place on a cutting board or baking sheet grilled side up.
12. Now top with all of your favorite pizza toppings!

Grilled BBQ Chicken Pizza

If you love BBQ Chicken you will love this pizza. This recipe offers all of the great flavors associated with BBQ Chicken but even tastier!

Directions:

1. Pre- heat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly spray grill with cooking spray. Place 3 Perdue Perfect Portion chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side.
2. Take two long pieces of tin foil and lay overlapping each other to make a large square.
3. Spray with cooking spray. Press or roll out your dough ball into a large circle, about ½ inch thick. Spray the top of the dough with cooking spray. Holding each end of the foil, carefully place on the grill (with the foil on the bottom). Close grill lid. Cook for a couple minutes, until the bottom of the crust is how you like it. I like to rotate mine if I can because some spots in my grill get hotter than others.
4. While the crust is cooking, chop cooked chicken breasts into cubes. Mix with barbecue sauce.
5. When crust is lightly browned, carefully flip it over (I use two spatulas). Squirt a little barbecue sauce on the crust and spread with a spatula. Pour sauce covered chopped chicken and spread out evenly on the pizza.
6. Give it a nice sprinkle of cheese, and then lay out the red onions. Add the cilantro and another little sprinkle of cheese. Close lid and let cook until cheese has melted and it’s heated through.
7. Carefully pull foil off grill and place on flat surface. Slice up into pizza slices and enjoy!

Grilled Chicken and Spinach Pizza

Create a delicious homemade pizza without the heartburn of a tomato based sauce. The white Alfredo sauce for in this recipe is super easy with a great combination of flavors.

Directions:

1. Preheat grill to 350 degrees.
2. Grill the pizza crust by that recipe’s instructions
3. Once first side of crust is grilled flip and prepare to top.
4. For your Alfredo sauce, mix the cream, Parmesan and glucomannan in a saucer and let it sit for a few minutes. Should thicken up a bit.
5. When it appears thicker, spread it on the crust as evenly as possible, almost to the edges of the crust. It needs to be a fairly thin layer or it will cause your crust to get soggy.
6. Next evenly spread the Jack cheese on the crust.
7. Then spread the Mozzarella cheese evenly on top.
8. Sprinkle with the oregano.
9. Sprinkle with a bit of garlic powder if you like also.

11. Evenly place the diced chicken meat on the pizza and the final topping is the wafer thin onion slivers.
12. Cook until the cheese appears to be melted and the onion is cooked.
13. ENJOY!
