Happy Sunday Friends! Most of my favorite dinners during the summer involve the bbq. One recipe we love is making individual grilled pizzas. We love pizza, but during the summer I don’t want to turn our oven on if we don’t need to… it’s just too hot! So here’s how we made our Grilled Pizza… it’s easy, fun and turns out perfect!
Grilled Pizza
I normally use my favorite homemade pizza dough recipe, but if you prefer you can purchase pizza dough at your grocery store. Dough for one large pizza will make 4 individual sized pizzas.
Get your grill heating up – I put it at the medium high setting.
I divide my dough into the 4 pieces and rolled them out and place them on a sheet of aluminum foil.
Then I let the kiddos put on their own sauce, cheese and toppings.
I have plates and tongs ready because the pizzas will cook quick!
Place 2 pizzas at a time on the grill. Close the lid and peak after a minute. Keep checking every minute. Once the cheese starts melting keep the lid open and use the tongs to check the bottom pizza crust. If it’s browned slide the foil/pizza and all onto a plate. If it needs a little more time keep checking it every 20-30 seconds.
Normally the pizza will cook in about 3 minutes… so there’s no walking away… it’s quick!
It really is a fun dinner to do with the family during summer and it’s ready nice and quick!

Prepared and separate each dough flat with waxed paper on both sides, get all you topping choices ready and fire up your Grill so all will be in readiness for your party. When ready peel one side of each flat and arrange on hot Grill, paper-side up. Grill. Place paper side down on a cookie sheet and top each (whether you or they is up to you). When ready to grill bottoms, and heat/melt toppings as desired, peel and place on Grill. This has the advantage of allowing you to grill crusts with other thicknesses, and also allows you to keep crust crispy, rather than bready.
Been grilling pizza for years. But this is the easiest and best method by far. Thank You for posting this grilled pizza.
This pizza looks awesome; I would have never thought of trying to make it on the grill. You are so right about summertime being too hot for the oven. I’m definetly going to give it a try. Thank you for sharing!!
I would rather use our grill every day during our short summers than ever turn on the overn. I can’t say I’ve ever grilled pizza, but now I want to! Thanks for sharing at Merry Monday!
That pizza looks great, we love grilling our pizza. Thanks for sharing on Delicious Dishes recipe party!
I am speechless. It is YUMMMYYYY

Glad you enjoy it!
These look delicious and must give this a try. I had one question. Do you need to spray the foil with cooking spray to keep the dough from sticking?
Thanks for sharing,

Hi Suzanne, good question! It depends how sticky your dough is. My homemade dough isn’t very sticky once I’ve rolled it out with some flour, so I don’t spray mine.
