Grilled Pizzas and Piadinas Hardcover – April 21, 2008

Use the recipes over and over and have purchased the book multiple times for other people.

This is a fantastic book. I grill pizzas on the Big Green Egg, and this is the best book I have found on pizzas. I prefer thin crust, and the thin crust dough recipe here is easy and quick. I also like the fact you grill one side of the crust first, and then the grilled side becomes the pizza top and you add toppings. This first grilling firms up the crust and makes it easy to work with when you add toppings and then return it to cook second time on the pizza stone in the grill. Their homemade tomato sauce is very fresh and good, and most recipes start with same crust, same recipe for seasoned oil for brushing grilled pizza top, same tomato sauce, and then they go to great varieties and combinations of toppings. The various pizzas have some very original combinations--you want to try them all. Also, great photos in the book of nearly all of the finished pizzas. I will be trying some of the piadinas in near future--they use a slightly different dough recipe

We SO so miss CK’s pizza and their owners. Now I can “attempt” to recreate some of those delicious wood fired pizzas at home. Miss this place and the homemade root beer.

I have had this book for several years and has provided a lot of inspiration. As we have an abundance of tomatoes in our garden, these pizzas bring out all the flavors. Made oven roasted tomato pizza tonight. I do find that Ina Garden's California pizza recipe is more to our liking, though. Other than that, I would have loved for the authors to put a presentation on Youtube or their own website - especially the piadina recipes could do with a little extra instructions. Definitely a book worth buying as it'll get you started on your own journey.

Grilling is something we do a lot here in AZ as you don't want to overheat your kitchen in the middle of summer down here. Pizza is a favorite food that my Husband and I share. I love the recipes in this book. Don't be afraid to substitute toppings on some of the recipes to accommodate food allergies or food aversions, it will still turn out great as the secret is in the crust.

SO MANY good ideas.I love grilling, and I love pizza. But every time I tried to grill pizza, I failed. This book is full of great ideas, and recipes.I was told of this book by the owner/ chef at a local tavern (that is known for great food). He said he uses this all the time at home, and he is thinking about adding them to the menu at the restaurant.

I have making pizzas for the last three years. I have finally found the book that answers all my questions and more. The dough is amazing and I love the sauce recipe. I have tried many other recipes but I do not have to look any further. The instructions and pictures are great. I made a tri tip Piadina that was the best. Looking forward to trying alot more of the recipes.

I bought this book a few years ago and let my sister borrow it since she has a grill. The recipes are so delicious and hearty. I am constantly craving grilled pizzas. The photgraphs leave your mouth watering. I ended up buying my sister and her husband a copy for their anniversary b/c they were hooked too! I would recommend this to anyone that wants yummy flavor packed pizzas!!!
