Make-Your-Own Grilled Pizza Bar

December 4, 2014 by A Savory Feast 22 Comments

It may be cold and snowing where you are, but here in Florida the weather is perfect for cookouts! My family loves to get together for dinner on the deck in my parents backyard. One of our favorite meals is a make-you-own grilled pizza party.

Make Your Own Grilled Pizza Bar

Today’s post is sponsored by Mettezza, but all opinions and recipes are my own.

Putting together a make-your-own grilled pizza bar is easy and fun for any party or family gathering. We all have different tastes in pizza, so why not let each person create their own unique combination of toppings?

This party idea is a great way to make memories with your friends and family. See who can come up with the most creative pizza!

Mezzetta Products The first thing you need to do for your pizza party is gather up the ingredients! I went to the store and found lots of great products from Mezzetta that were perfect for making pizzas. Be sure to grab a bottle of pizza or pasta sauce, and any other toppings that catch your eye. Here are some topping ideas to get you started: Traditional toppings: Mozzarella Cheese (shredded or fresh), Pepperoni, Onions, Mushrooms, Sausage, Tomatoes… Greek pizza toppings: Mezzetta Kalamata Olives, Feta Cheese, Spinach… Extra Cheese, please: Romano, Parmesan, Ricotta, Gouda… Creative Toppings: Bacon Bits, Mezzetta Jalapeno Slices, BBQ Sauce, Hot Dogs… You’ll also want to grab one pre-made pizza crust for every 2-3 people, or one personal size pizza per person. It’s so much easier to use the pre-made crusts, but if you prefer you can buy pizza dough or make it yourself. Make Your Own Grilled Pizza Bar Ideas Be sure to set up all your ingredients as close to the grill as possible. Make sure everything is easy to grab by placing utensils in all the containers. Depending on the size of your grill, you should be able to make 2-3 pizzas at a time.

3 Steps to Perfect Grilled Pizzas

1. Place your pizza on a grill that is pre-heated to medium high. Cook for 2-5 minutes or until browned. Flip your pizza!

2. Top your pizza however you like! I usually like to start with my sauce, then add the cheese, and then add any additional toppings.

3. Close the lid and cook for 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted and slightly browned.

    I love Mezzetta products, especially their olives. Great idea to grill the pizza too! I’m loving the warmer winter weather here in Florida. That is one welcome change from Texas!

    Pizza is for sure one of my most favorite meals ever! I love grilling pizza and adding different toppings. One of my favorites is fontina, brussel sprouts and bacon. YUM!
