GRILLED STUFFED CRUST PIZZA



Grilled Stuffed Crust Pizza image

The only downside of making pizza in the summer is having to crank up the oven. Unless you make it on the grill! And it doesn't have to be hard. Cooking the dough on a rimmed baking sheet keeps it from sticking. Slipping the pizza onto the grill grates at the end makes for an extra-crispy crust. While we were at it, we stuffed the crust with mozzarella - because we could.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup olive oil
2 pounds store-bought pizza dough
One 15-ounce can crushed tomatoes
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
10 mozzarella cheese sticks
6 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
1 pound part-skim mozzarella, thinly sliced
40 slices pepperoni
Torn fresh basil leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Pour the olive oil into an 11-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet. Transfer the dough to the pan, turning to coat it with the oil. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until the dough fills about two-thirds of the baking sheet, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  • Slide your hands under the dough, lift and gently stretch it to fit the pan. (It's okay if it doesn't stretch to the corners.) For the final rise, loosely cover with plastic wrap and set aside until slightly puffy, 30 to 45 minutes.
  • While the dough rises, preheat a grill for high heat - it needs to be 500 to 600 degrees F when covered.
  • Stir the tomatoes, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper together in a medium bowl until combined.
  • When the dough has risen, place the cheese sticks all the way around the edges, leaving a half-inch border. Fold the dough up and over the cheese sticks until they are totally enclosed, then gently pinch the dough to seal, creating a stuffed crust. Stretch and pull the dough gently to fill the edges of the baking sheet. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of the Parmesan evenly over the dough, all the way to the edge. Then top with the sliced mozzarella, leaving the border exposed. Spoon the tomato mixture over the mozzarella, inside the border. Top with the pepperoni and remaining 3 tablespoons Parmesan.
  • Put the pizza sheet directly on the grill grates, cover the grill and cook until the crust is lightly browned at the edges, about 15 minutes. Using a large metal spatula, slide the pizza directly onto the grill grates, cover and continue to cook until the crust is dark golden brown and the mozzarella is bubbly and lightly browned in spots, about 10 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board and let sit for 10 minutes. Top with some basil leaves and cut into squares.

GRILLED STUFFED CHEESEBURGER BUNS



Grilled Stuffed Cheeseburger Buns image

Forget the days of the massive cheeseburger assembly line at your tailgate party. Here, store-bought pizza dough is stuffed with mini cheeseburgers, which can be prepared in advance so all that's left to do is grill them up at game time! A perfect snack for a party where seating is limited, these stuffed burgers are the ultimate grab-and-go score.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 50m

Yield 8 stuffed buns

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped dill pickle chips (about 10 pickles)
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
8 ounces lean (93/7) ground beef
4 slices American cheese, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound store-bought pizza dough, at room temperature
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Whisk the ketchup, mayonnaise, pickles and mustard in a small bowl until well combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Mix the ground beef, American cheese, red onion, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl until well combined. Form the mixture into 8 small patties, each about 1 ounce and 2 inches in diameter.
  • Divide the pizza dough into eight 2-ounce pieces. Working with one piece at a time, press the dough into a 4-inch round and place 1 cheeseburger patty into the center. Fold the edges of the dough over the patty, pinching it together in the center tightly so that the patty is completely covered and there is no gap for any cheese to spill out when cooking. Repeat with the remaining dough and patties. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to grill, up to 1 day.
  • Place a 12-inch cast-iron skillet onto the grill and prepare the grill for medium heat (about 350 degrees F).
  • Once preheated turn the burner underneath the skillet off. Brush the tops of the buns with the olive oil and sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Place the buns into the heated cast-iron skillet, spacing them apart so none of them are touching. Cover the grill and cook, using grilling tongs to pick up and reposition the buns occasionally so they don't burn on the bottom, until the buns are golden brown and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Let the buns cool for at least 15 minutes before serving with the special sauce on the side.
