A Pizza slide (or flat metal cooking or cookie sheet) and pot holders are essential.

Ingredientes: 

Dough:

You can either make your own dough from scratch or purchase pre-made dough from your local grocer. If choosing to make from scratch, see the dough ingredients below:

3 cups of all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups of warmed water (about 110 degrees F)
2/3 cup of whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon of light olive oil
1 package of active dry yeast (RECOMENDATION: Fleishman’s Yeast)
1 1/2 teaspoons of salt
1 teaspoon of sugar

Toppings / Other ingredients:

Pizza Sauce
Mozzarella cheese
Oregano and Basil Flakes
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Grated Parmesan Cheese
Sliced meats and vegetables*

Instrucciones: 

Place/combine water, oil, yeast and sugar in a small and very clean bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes or until the mixture bubbles.

Mix the all purpose flour, the wheat flour, and salt together preferably with a food processor or electric mixer.
While the flours and salt are blending, add the water/yeast mixture.
Mix for 2 minutes. Knead the mixture briefly on a lightly floured surface, and then place in a large, slightly oiled bowl and let rise in a warm place for 2-3 hours until the dough doubles in size.
Once the dough has doubled, lightly flour two cooking sheets.
On a floured surface, roll out 1/2 of the dough into a circle approximately 1/4 inch thick. (Be sure to make each pizza round small enough to fit on your grill.)
Place on a floured cooking sheet. Repeat this process until you have 2 pizza rounds.

Fire up the grill to high! Be sure grill is clean and the grids are lightly oiled.
Place one pizza round on the clean, oiled, and pre-heated grill. Grill pizza round for about 1 -2 minutes or until the bottom is browned.
With a set of tongs, flat cookie or cooking sheet, or long spatula, gently flip the pizza round over and grill it for an additional 30 -45 seconds. Remove from the grill and repeat the grilling process for the remaining round. Turn down the heat of your grill slightly while letting the pizza rounds cool a bit, and then top each with your favorite toppings.*
Let cool and serve!!!!
