Step 1

In the bowl of your stand mixer with the dough hook attached, add warm water, yeast, and sugar, stir to combine. Wait 3-5 minutes for the yeast to bloom and rise to to the top

Step 2

Once yeast has become foamy and is floating, add the salt and olive oil and give it a stir

Step 3

Add the flour a cup at a time for the first 4 cups and mix on low after each addition until it is thoroughly incorporated

Step 4

Add the remaining flour if needed about 1/4 cup at a time until dough is sticky but stays together. The goal is for the dough to be quite slack and sticky, but not stuck to the bowl. We usually use about 4 1/2 cups of flour but this can vary.

Step 5

Transfer dough to an oiled bowl, cover with a kitchen towel and allow to rise 1 hourCooking pizza on a barbecu

Step 6

On a heavily floured surface, tip dough out of bowl, punch down, and divide into two or three equal pieces

Step 7

Preheat barbecue to medium-high (about 500 degrees F), then add stone and allow to heat for 10 minutes

Step 8

While stone is preheating, roll dough out into a 12" circle. If you have a pizza paddle then dust paddle with a generous amount of cornmeal, and put the rolled dough on followed by sauce, cheese and toppings of your choice. If you don't have a pizza paddle then you will have to sprinkle the cornmeal on the stone, then assemble the pizza on the stone.

Step 9

Once your pizza is on the stone, close the barbecue and cook pizza for 6 minutes, or until the bottom is crisped and the edges are starting to turn golden

Step 10

Remove carefully and serve

Step 11

Preheat oven to 425 F, grease (we use olive oil for this) two or three 12" pizza pans and sprinkle cornmeal on top generously

Step 12

On a heavily floured surface, tip dough out of bowl, punch down, and divide into two or three equal pieces

Step 13

Roll out each piece of dough into 12" circles, transfer to prepared pans and top with sauce, cheese, and toppings of your choice.

Step 14

Bake in preheated oven 15-20 minutes or until crust is golden brown
