Tonight I took the plunge and cooked my first pizzas on the Weber OTG. See what this place does to you? :biggrin:
First pizza attempt; homemade sauce (tomato sauce, tomato paste, minced garlic, olive oil, and Italian seasonings), feta cheese, Canadian bacon, fresh pineapple, and a fine dusting of Italian seasonings on "Plain" fresh pizza dough from Trader Joe's:
Near disastrous results getting it from the cutting board to the pizza stone on the grill:
10 minutes later and ready to come off the grill:
The results looked ugly, but (surprisingly enough) tasted great. Where the crust wasn't too thick from the transfer process, it was crispy and nicely browned. Since it tasted so good, we decided to pull out another crust and give it another try. Same toppings on this one, but a garlic-herb crust and laid out in an old pie pan we had leftover from some long-forgotten store-bought dessert:
On the grill in the pan:
After 10 minutes, out of the pan and onto the stone:
Ready to eat:
Next time we will be better prepare as She Who Must Be Obeyed will be scouring the local thrift stores in search of either pizza pans or peels to ease that whole transfer process.
