You will need:
1. 1 lbs of store bought or homemade pizza dough
2. Olive oil
3. toppings of your choice. I used:
5. Close the lid and let the dough grill up for about three or four minutes. Keep an eye and be vigilant. The crust goes from perfect to scorched quickly!
6. When the dough releases easily from the grill, it is ready to be flipped using a pair of tongs.
7. Working quickly, add your toppings and close the lid on your grill. Let everything cook for 5 to 10 minutes. Keep a close eye and check often.

Directions:
1. Preheat the grill to medium high. To tell if your grill is at the right temperature, use the "hand test." Hold your hand about two inches ABOVE the grill palm down. If you can hold it there for three seconds before you have to pull it away, your grill is at medium high heat.
2. Be sure you have all your toppings prepped and ready to go on your pizza as soon as you flip it. You have to work quickly here!
3. Stretch out your pizza dough carefully. Try not to get any holes in it as you work it in. Pizzas on the grill are quite rustic in shape, so don't try to be too precious here. It won't be a perfect circle.
4. Oil up your grates before carefully placing the dough onto the grill.
5. Close the lid and let the dough grill up for about three or four minutes. Keep an eye and be vigilant. The crust goes from perfect to scorched quickly!

Ooh looks delicious!
