Recipe

• 1 for the dough: in a medium bowl, combine the yeast sugar and water.
• 2 whisk until all the yeast is melted.
• 3 let stand for 5-10 minutes.
• 4 add two cups of the flour, salt, pepper, garlic and olive oil.
• 5 stir with your hands until the dough holds together.
• 6 transfer the dough to a lightly oiled surface (use oil not flour as it lends a crunchier crust). knead until the dough is smooth about 8-10 minutes.
• 7 shape into a ball and let stand in an oiled bowl covered in a warm place for about an hour or until the dough doubles in size.
• 8 punch down the dough and transfer again to a lightly oiled surface.
• 9 divide the dough into to equal pieces.
• 10 stretch the dough with your hands until the dough is about 1/8 inch thick.
• 11 slide the dough to a lightly oiled baking sheet.
• 12 slide the dough onto the grill and cook uncovered directly over a medium heat until the grill marks are clearly visible.
• 13 brush the dough with olive oil.
• 14 the crust may bubble but that is ok as it will deflate as you turn it.
• 15 turn the dough and brush again with olive oil.
• 16 top first with your cheese choice as the cheese will melt evenly being put on first.
• 17 next add you sauce and then toppings.
• 18 grill for about 5 minutes more or until cheese is melted.
• 19 it is best after you add the toppings to close the grill and view every three minutes until the cheese is melted.
• 20 i did not specify a quantity for the cheese as everyone likes different amounts of cheese.
• 21 let the pizza rest a few minutes before cutting it.
• 22 i added minced garlic to my olive oil for brushing.
