Pizza on the BBQ

We are addicted to pizza on the barbecue. It's the yummiest homemade pizza. You've got to try it while its still good BBQ weather.

1. Turn your grill to a really low setting.

2. Make your dough (any old recipe), gather pizza sauce and mozzarella and the toppings of your choice. I hear Fresh and Easy has a pizza dough you just buy in a little bag, all ready to go.

3. Spray a piece of wax paper (or foil) with Pam and roll out your dough to a size that will fit on your grill.

4. Carefully flip the dough onto your grill and close the lid. Get all your other ingredients outside. It only takes a couple minutes for the dough to cook.

5. Flip the dough over and quickly top the baked side with sauce, cheese and toppings. Bert and I always do this part together so it goes a little faster. Close the lid to melt the cheese but don't burn the second side. Sometimes we even turn the grill off but keep the pizza on the warm grill.

Walla! Pizza on the BBQ. You'll feel like you work at some brick oven pizza shop. We like to do pesto, mozzarella, tomato and basil sometimes.

This is our favorite way to do pizza! It is sooo good. We've found that we grill the first side and then take it off the grill to put the toppings on, and then put it back on the grill. We burn it less this way!

I've always wanted to do it this way. I'll have to see if our ghetto grill can handle it. It is probably better doing it this way than heating up your oven in the summer too.

We tried it tonight, and I don't think we'll ever make it in the oven again. SO GOOD! BTW, they also sell pizza dough at Bashas' on Gilbert & McKellips in the deli for $2.

Sprinkles' Lemon Buttercream Frosting

1 cup butter, softened 3 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar juice and zest of one lemon 1 tsp. vanilla 1/8 tsp. salt Combine butter, sugar, and salt and beat till well combined. Add lemon juice, zest, and vanilla and continue to beat for another 3 to 5 minutes or until creamy. I made this for lemon cupcakes for a baby shower and it was so good! I did add a little more sugar so it was a little stiffer and easier to pipe with a decorating tip.

Baked Beans

So what if nobody has posted in a year and a half? I got this recipe from my cousin Carolyn and needed to type it up. I really love the contrast of the different beans in this one. Great for bar-b-q's and potlucks. 1 lb ground beef (I did not include this. To me, putting ground beef in baked beans turns it to chili.) 1 lb bacon 1 onion, diced 1 15 oz can butter beans, with liquid 1 15 oz can red kidney beans, drained & rinsed 1 15 oz can pork & beans 3/4 c brown sugar 1/2 c ketchup 2 tsp apple cider vinegar 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper Brown bacon and drain. Cook onion in some reserved bacon grease. Combine the rest of ingredients and pour in a greased casserole dish. Bake uncovered at 350 for 1 hour.

Ghoulosh

I know, I'm breaking my own rule about no cream soups, but it doesn't seem so bad next to the high fructose corn syrup feast that happens right after. I love this meal because it is yummy, hearty and one dish. I served it with some fresh bread. Yum! 1 1/2 pounds ground beef 1 pound ground pork sausage salt and pepper to taste 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice (I didn't use this in mine because I didn't have any, and I was afraid it might be too weird for my kids. Maybe next year?) 2 tablespoons brown sugar 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken stock 1 1/2 cups long grain and wild rice mix 1 sugar pumpkin 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup 2 (4 ounce) cans mushroom stems and pieces, drained 2 (14.5 ounce) cans French cut green beans In a large skillet over medium heat, mix ground beef and sausage. Cook and stir until evenly browned. Drain meats, and mix in chicken stock and rice. Cover, and cook 25 to 30 minutes, u...
