How To Make A Grilled Artisan Pepperoni Pizza With #Pillsbury

I wrote this post on while participating in a campaign by Myblogspark on behalf of General Mills and received a promotional items to thank me for my time. All views and opinions expressed are that of my own.

One thing that all of my family LOVES to eat is pizza. For me, I like pizza for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Before I learned how to make my own homemade pizza, I would either order it from take-out or make it from one of the frozen varieties you can find at the store. Once I learned that making pizza is easy to make and a whole lot cheaper than take-out, I have been hooked. Being able to make it at home gives you the option to add your own ingredients and make it just the way that you like it.

This weekend I wanted to be creative with our dinner and decided to make pizza on the BBQ grill. I normally make our pizza in the oven, but it is summer now and the weather here in California can be a little too hot to use the oven. Even though I love a pizza with a variety of ingredients, my kids prefer just pepperoni, cheese and sauce.  Now I will show you just how easy it is to make one.

First you will want to open the Pillsbury Artisan Pizza Bread dough, unroll it and place it on a sheet of foil. Be sure to keep the dough in the fridge until you use it so the dough unrolls easily.

Next you will want to spread your pizza sauce. I used a brush to spread the sauce evenly on the dough. The amount of sauce will depend on how saucy you like your pizza.

I am always trying to add some extra flavor, so next I sprinkled some Parmesan cheese on top of the sauce.

Next add the cheese. For me I use Mozzarella because it seems to melt the best for me, but you can choose whatever shredded cheese you like best.

Next add the pepperoni to the top of the cheese.

Now it is time to place your pizza on the grill. Since I have a family of six, I decided to make two pizzas to make sure we had enough. I made a pizza with the Pillsbury Artisan Pizza Dough as well as the regular Pillsbury Pizza dough.

The next step is going to vary on your BBQ Grill. We have a grill that uses propane, so we put the heat on low and grilled the pizza bout 25-30 minutes. You will want to cook on low because if you turn it up too much, your crust is going to burn.

This is just one of many ideas that you can use to make pizza on the grill. To find more grilled pizza recipes, visit the following links:
