Thanks. I've found that the only way to get back into painting is to pick up a paint brush. I'm going to turn away from the computer right know and try that. Good luck with your painting.

You are a really talented painter! And cook! I've been trying to get back into painting (just started up again after…9 years?) and I hope I get to half as good as you. Beautiful website!

I love grilled pizzas!!
I prefer to cook mine on a pizza stone cause it's easier, but I have done them directly on the grill…I find I need a little stiffer dough is all.
I roll out my dough on a floured surface. When it is the shape/size I want it, I then slide it on a sheet of floured PARCHMENT PAPER. I put the toppings I want on it, slide a rimless cookie sheet under the parchemnt paper and then slide the pizza WITH THE PARCHMENT onto my pizza stone that is on the grill. If you want to put it directly on the grill (without a stone/parchment paper)simply slide it off onto the grill.
Works every time

We like grilled pizza a lot too – but getting it to keep it's shape can be tough. I usually spray tin foil with olive oil, shape the dough on that, then plop the whole thing upside down on the grill and peel off the tin foil. But hey – even if it is a little funny looking – it still tastes great!

I love grilled pizza. There is just something about the texture of grilled dough that is irresistible. I had the same sticking problem when I tried to use wax paper. What worked for me was to lightly flour a cutting board and lay the rolled dough on there until I was ready to put it onto the grill (I could just move it with my hands).

Thanks Miranda,

I think whole wheat flour is a great idea. I did spray the dough with olive oil before I put it on the grill.

Grilled Pizza is a family fav. I hope this is helpful, but if you add a little whole wheat flour it makes the dough more sturdy to withhold the grill cooking. I always brush it with olive oil before I put it on the grill. My husband and I work together making this. It is so much fun…..
I like your site!!!!
