How to Grill Pizza

METHOD: Direct grilling

ADVANCE PREPARATION: 1¼ to 2¾ hours for making the dough and letting it rise

Grilled pizza was popularized by George Germon and Johanne Killeen at their restaurant Al Forno in Providence, Rhode Island. The couple had the brainstorm to toss a sheet of raw pizza dough on the grate of their charcoal-burning grill. The crust browned and blistered, and soaked up the good grill flavors. It may have been a wacky idea, but it produced an irresistible pizza.
