How to grill pizza in 15 minutes:

First, go ahead and preheat the grill. My gas grill has a thermometer on the lid, so I preheat it to 400.

The high temp will give your pizza the crispy bottom crust.  If you don’t have a thermometer for your grill, then I highly suggest you get one. Amazon has several on sale. 

Spread pizza sauce onto the pizza crust.

Add cheese and pepperoni and place directly onto the grill grate. No special pans required! I told you this was very simple and easy!

It is also helpful to use a large cutting board to slide the pizza onto the grill. (I love this cutting board with the handle) You can also use a pizza pan, turn it upside down, place your crust on it and slide your pizza off of the pan onto the grill.

Pizza pans are even cheaper on Amazon right now.

Close the lid and grill for 6-10 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is brown on the bottom.

This grilled pizza recipe is ready in 15 minutes!

See I told you this recipe was really easy to make. I know I cheat a little with the pre-made pizza crust, but you could use your own pizza crust, you would just need to cook it longer on the grill before adding toppings.

However, I just love this super easy grilled pizza recipe exactly the way it is. My pizza loving son, just loves this pizza and I love how I can serve it with a side salad and Dinner is done!

Money saving tips for grilled pizza recipe:

Make your own homemade pizza sauce. It wills save you money that way. Plus… you will love how easy and how great it tastes.

For the cheese, it is super easy to save on cheese. Can you Freeze Cheese? – yes you can! See how we stock up on cheese when it is low in price and freeze it until we need it.

I also learned how to grill corn on the cob and the kids love that too!

Topping ideas:

  • bell peppers
  • onion
  • banana peppers
  • Italian sausage
  • pepperoni
  • Various cheese blends for cheese lovers.
  • mushrooms
  • spinach
  • black olives
  • and anything you like!

Make this pizza your own and customize with all of your favorite toppings!
