Grilled pizza is so fun to make! I love grilling pizzas on hot days because I don’t have to crank up the oven to high heat. Grilled pizza makes dinnertime feel like an event, and it’s simple enough to manage on a weeknight.
Grilled pizza is especially doable when you start with my Easy Whole Wheat Pizza Dough, which comes together in a flash—no rising time required—and grills beautifully.
Today, I’m sharing a full tutorial on how to grill pizza. As you’ll see, grilled pizzas differ a bit in technique from oven-baked pizzas.
How To Grill Pizza (recipe And Tips)
Choose your toppings wisely (you’ll find suggestions below) and follow my recipe until you get the hang of it. Then, you’ll be a grilled pizza champion!
Aim for a grill temperature between 400 to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. I’m offering a wide range here because grills, as opposed to ovens, tend to fluctuate more in temperature. I’ve achieved great results with this range. You can let the grill get a little hotter, but over 550 degrees, you run the risk of your char marks tasting a little, well, burnt.
If your grill doesn’t have a built-in temperature gauge, you can use your hand to help determine the correct temperature. The grill is hot enough when you can hold your hand about five inches above the grates for just one second before it becomes uncomfortable. Obviously, use caution and your best judgment with this technique!
Meaty Grilled Pizza Recipe
Simply roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to help prevent it from sticking to the pizza peel later. Lightly brush the top of the dough all over with olive oil. The oil helps prevent sticking when we flip the dough onto the grate.
Contrary to baked pizzas that enter the oven fully dressed, we’ll need to grill the pizzas in two part. First, we grill the dough (oiled side down) until it’s lightly firmed up. This takes just a couple of minutes. Then, remove the dough from the grill for the next part.
Grill the pizza until the cheese is melted. This will happen quickly! Pull your pizza from the grill, add any final toppings like fresh basil or arugula, and enjoy.
Air Fryer Pizza Recipe
When it comes to grilled pizzas, less is more. Grilled pizzas will never develop golden, bubbling cheese like you can achieve in a hot oven, and I recommend working with tender toppings since the pizza will not be in the grill for long.
Learn how to grill pizza with this simple recipe! My easy whole wheat pizza dough comes together in no time and grills beautifully, or you can use store-bought dough. Recipe yields two 11-inch pizzas (about 6 to 8 servings).
*Toppings as shown: I used goat cheese and a handful of Kalamata olives (pitted and halved). Once the pizza was done, I added a handful of fresh arugula, a drizzle of balsamic reduction and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.

Healthy Grilled Pizza On A Pizza Stone
Pizza night is a really special tradition that Chris & I have had ever since we started dating. Our first date was at a pizza joint & we used to always go out for pizza on Sunday nights. These days we like doing pizza night at home, using our wood-fired pizza set up or making our favorite cast iron pizzas. But this year, as I began planning the PWWB Grilling Series, I knew there was one more pizza recipe that I wanted to tackle – the BEST grilled pizza recipe!
Homemade pizza on the grill is one of our favorite summer meals. Because it’s pretty quick to throw together using whatever you already have on hand, it’s the perfect dinnertime contender for busy weeknights, lazy weekends, & backyard summer parties alike.

Pizza is its foundation – the crust. You can’t make good pizza without good crust, & you can’t make good crust without great dough. I absolutely swear by the Pizza Dough Kit from my good friends DeLallo. It’s truly the
Minute Grilled Pizza With Sun Dried Tomatoes
Pizza dough I use at my house. It’s better than any store-bought dough I’ve ever used AND it trumps every single one of my attempts at homemade pizza dough.
Here’s why it’s the best: The kit consists of yeast & a carefully crafted flour mixture made with Type 00 flour, a super finely ground Italian flour. The 00 flour gives the pizza dough great elasticity, which translates to the kind of restaurant-quality pizza crust that’s perfectly light & chewy all at once. It’s the perfect dough to use in this grilled pizza recipe!
How it works ⇢ About an hour before you’d like to start grilling pizzas, prep your pizza dough kit. Simply mix the kit contents together with a little warm water, give it a quick knead & let it rise until doubled in size. It’s about 10 minutes of active work, & 1 kit yields 3 10-12-inch grilled pizzas.

Suggest ordering a couple of pizza dough kits. I always have a handful stocked in my pantry for whenever a pizza night craving strikes!
The secret to cooking pizza on a grill is 2-Zone Grilling. By creating 2 zones of heat on your grill (one zone of direct, high heat & a second zone of indirect heat), you can first grill the pizza with direct, high heat, then finishing it off with steady indirect heat. The resulting grilled pizza is perfect every time –ooey-melty cheese, smoky flavor, & a crisp, golden brown crust that’s not burnt on the bottom.
If you’ve never tried 2-zone grilling before, don’t panic. It’s the simplest thing!I’m sharing all of the details below, & you can also check out this post, which will walk you through zone grilling step by step!

Tempting to load a pizza up with toppings, you really want to avoid going overboard for grilled pizza. Excess sauce, cheese, & pizza toppings weigh down on the crust, which leads to all sorts of problems like soggy crust or unevenly cooked pizzas with burnt crust & uncooked toppings. No good!
For an 8-10-inch grilled pizza, aim for 1/4 cup sauce, 1/3 cup cheese, & a limit of 2-3 toppings per pizza. This is the ratio I use at the PWWB House, & it results in perfectly grilled pizza every time!
