Preheat grill to medium high heat 375-400
brush clean and wipe off grill with olive oil soaked paper towel

roll out pizza crust…you might need to let it rest on counter for a few minutes if it is sticky. Use flour when rolling it out. Roll into kind of round shape about ¼” thick.
Have something big to turn it with…like the bottom of a tart pan or large spatula…
plop it on the grill, close lid for one minute. It should come up easily, wait a few seconds if it doesn’t. Flip it over, quickly put on toppings, close lid and cook for 5-10 more.
