You’re probably familiar with the concept of cooking pizza on a griddle. It’s an easy way to make delicious, restaurant-quality pies at home, and it can be done in just a few minutes.
The Blackstone Griddle is a versatile piece of equipment that allows you to cook anything from breakfast sandwiches to burgers to steaks and yes, even pizza!
Ingredients and Supplies Needed
The ingredients and supplies needed for this recipe are:
- Flour
- Yeast
- Salt (optional)
- Olive Oil (or other cooking oil)
Your choice of toppings, such as cheese, sausage and peppers. If you’re making a vegetarian pizza, try mushrooms or bell peppers.
Instructions
- Mix together the ingredients for the pizza dough.
- Knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Allow your dough to rise until it has doubled in size, about 1 hour at room temperature or 2 hours in a warm spot (such as an oven with no heat).
- Preheat your Blackstone Griddle for 10 minutes on high heat before proceeding with step 4 below.
Roll out your pizza dough into an even circle about 1/4 inch thick and large enough to fit over both sides of your Blackstone Griddle (about 12 inches).
You can use a rolling pin or stretch by hand if you don’t have one available!
We recommend using a lightly floured surface when rolling out so that it doesn’t stick too much while working with other ingredients later on.
Make sure not too much flour gets mixed into their recipes since this could affect how well they bake up later on down their process lines too.
Tips for Perfectly Cooked Pizza
- Use a pizza stone.
- Preheat your griddle to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Pre-cook the toppings (if you’re using any).
Use a pizza peel to transfer the dough onto the hot surface of your griddle, then turn off one side of it so that you can cook one side of the pizza at a time without burning or overcooking it.
Once you’ve flipped your first side, turn off both sides again and let it finish cooking through before removing from heat!
Cleaning the Griddle
To clean your griddle, remove all food particles and scrape off any burnt pieces. Wipe down the griddle with a damp cloth, then apply a thin layer of oil.
Conclusion
Cooking pizza on a Blackstone Griddle is easy and fast. The pizza cooks in just minutes, and it comes out perfectly cooked every time.
Cleaning the griddle is easy too; you can use soap and water or simply wipe it down with a paper towel.
