Take your pizza nights to the next level with this Grilled Sourdough Pizza recipe. Tangy sourdough discard pizza dough grills up light and crispy, pairing perfectly with your favorite toppings for a delicious summer pizza!
Preheat your gas grill on high until it reaches 550℉.
Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal-sized portions for individual pizzas. Set up a workstation near the grill with your dough balls, sauce, cheese, and toppings ready to go.
1 recipe (2 large dough balls) sourdough pizza dough
Reduce the heat on one half of the grill to low, creating a direct heat side and an indirect heat side.
Take one piece of dough and stretch it to your desired thinness. Carefully place the stretched dough on the grill grates over direct heat. Close the lid and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until you see grill marks and the dough is partially cooked. Use your nose and eyes to monitor the cooking process closely to avoid burning.
1 cup pizza sauce, 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, Toppings of choice
Flip the partially cooked dough to the indirect heat side of the grill. Quickly add your pizza sauce, cheese, and any desired toppings. Close the lid and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the dough is cooked through.
Remove the finished pizza from the grill using tongs. If needed, allow the grill to reheat before cooking the next pizza. Repeat the grilling and topping process for the remaining dough portions.
Slice and serve your grilled sourdough pizzas hot off the grill.
