How To Grill Pizza

By Lynda · Jun 22, 2015 · This post may contain affiliate links.

Grilling pizza is really easy, especially when you use a pre-made frozen pizza. This guide will show you just how simple it is.

An inexpensive way to keep your kitchen and house cooler during warm months is to cook outside. You can do that with a variety of foods, including pizza. Let me show you how to cook a frozen pizza on the grill.

Preheat your gas grill to 400 degrees.

Once the grill is ready, unwrap your pizzas, discard the plastic wrap and cardboard, and place them on the grill.  

Set a timer for 7 minutes.  When the time is up, rotate the pizzas 180 degrees and then grill them for about another 8 minutes.  

It’s important to check the temperature on your grill.  It is easy for the temperature to fluctuate and you don’t want it to get too hot and burn the pizza.  A slight char around the crust is normal.

Next, remove them from the heat and let them sit for a couple of minutes.  Paired with fruit or a simple side salad, they make a quick and easy meal that’s delicious.  Plus, you won’t have to heat up your kitchen.

    Get pizza dough roll it out with flour and a little olive oil on one side. Ore-heat the BBQ and put on the rolled out dough. After it gets form flip it and put you faviorte toppings on. Now that’s BBQ pizza.

    I’ve never grilled a pizza, but it looks like a great idea and so much better than heating up the kitchen when it’s hot already. I could definitely go for one of those drumsticks, too.

    I think I may like grilled pizza better than baked! These pictures look so yummy.

    We love pizza but have never tried grilling the same. I guess that’s next up on our grill this weekend. What a great idea!

    Here in Vegas, we try to grill just about everything to not heat up the house! I haven’t done a pizza yet. I’m afraid I’ll burn it to a crisp I need to just do it!

    We love to spend the summer evenings outdoors. Cooking outdoors makes the evening complete. Can’t wait to grill up pizza!

    We’ve never grilled pizza before, but it’s my favorite when it’s crispy. We will have to try this.

    We prefer Jacks’ Pizza! I find that a thin crust gives us better flavor than overly thick crust pizzas.

      I like the crispy aspect of the thin crust. Just can’t get that with a thick crust.

    We have never tried to BBQ a pizza before but it look like it would be amazing!
    How much would you have to adjust the time if the pizza was thawed?
    Mmmm… drumsticks are my favourite sweet treat 🙂

      It’s best to grill them in their frozen state. (http://www.jackspizza.com/grilling/)
