Homemade pizza on the grill
Serving guests a homemade pizza feels luxurious, fresh, and professional! Plus, a homemade pizza on the grill becomes really, really good. Baking a pizza on a grill is a bit different from putting the pizza in the oven. The baking time can vary between different grills, but the most important thing is to try to maintain an even temperature on the grill. The result is a crispy and perfectly baked pizza.

Grill pizza on a gas grill
Follow the instructions below to grill your pizza on a gas grill:
Preparations:
-
Place the pizza steel on the grill grate.
-
Turn on all burners and let the gas grill reach high heat (about 300º). The steel should be on for at least 10 minutes to get hot enough.
Cooking:
-
Sprinkle flour over your pizza steel and then place the pizza on it using a pizza peel or pizza tray.
-
Turn off the burners directly under your pizza steel to let the pizza bake with indirect heat.
-
Close the lid and grill for about 5-10 minutes (for thinner pizzas: 5-7 minutes, for thicker pizzas: about 7-10 minutes).
Serving:
-
Check that the pizza is done. The pizza is ready when the edges and bottom are golden brown and crispy.
-
Remove the pizza using a pizza peel or pizza tray.
-
Turn off the grill and let the pizza steel remain to cool down.

Preparations:
-
Place plenty of charcoal in a large ring and light the grill.

Place the pizza steel in the center of the grill grate.
