Ingredients

Instructions

  • Prepare a grill fire to about 350° with a pizza stone with pecan or hickory for smoke flavor.
  • Roll the pizza dough out into about a 10 inch circle on a lightly floured surface.
  • Place the dough onto a piece of parchment paper and place on a pizza peel.
  • Brush or spray olive oil over the dough.
  • Top with a small amount of bbq sauce and spread evenly. Too much sauce will overwhelm the other flavors, so you want a thin layer.
  • Add a bit of cheese over the sauce.
  • Top with sliced or diced chicken, peppers and onions. 
  • Add more cheese.
  • Slide the pizza with the parchment paper onto the pizza stone. Cook with the grill closed for 5 minutes. Carefully remove the parchment paper, it should slide right out. 
  • Use a large spatula or metal pizza peel to turn the pizza a quarter turn. Continue to cook with the grill closed, rotating the pizza a quarter turn every 5 minutes.
  • The pizza should be crisp around the edges and the bottom crisp in about 20 - 25 minutes.
  • Remove from grill to a cutting board. Rest 5 minutes before slicing. 

Notes

We used our Big Green Egg for this recipe with pecan for smoke flavor. If you are using a pellet grill or gas grill, you will want your fire at about 425°.
Store leftover pizza in a zip top bag in the refrigerator up to 3 days.
Pizza can be reheated in a heavy bottom skillet on the stove top, in a toaster oven or air fryer.
