We had this second night out. We froze the mozzarella cheese and kept it in the soft side cooler with our fresh/frozen food. We used sliced rather than shredded cheese. Also, we added dehydrated hamburger, mushrooms and green peppers....that was really good. |

We make them on the grill over coals with a tinfoil tent. |

- Bought prepared crusts from wal-mart. - Bought plastic bottle of pizza sauce - Bought bacon bits and pepperoni - Bought 1lb of mozzarella cheese (ok with no refridge if package not opened) We just prepared a nice bed of coals. Then, each person made their own pizza. I placed the pizza on the fire grate and put a frying pan lid over the top. It was really a pretty good oven and the pizza cooked quickly. No muss, no fuss, and liked by all. |

To cook, I put the pizza on the inside of the cover of my cook kit, place it on the fire grate and cover it with the pot. On top of the pot I place hot coals from the fire; works like a Dutch oven without the weight, and the pizza turns out really good! |

I take dehydrated pizza sauce, onions, green peppers, and ground beef - put them all in a cup with lid at lunch time with water, and it does make a good pizza. Planning it twice this year - ground beef and pepperoni. Been thinking about dehydrating ground sausage. I am curious though on Betty Crocker vs Jiffy pizza dough mix. I think last year I tried both and decided the Jiffy was a little better. Anyone one else have an opinion? |

So for the bw, I prepack the pizza dough ingrediants in a zip lock bag. I dehydrate the toppings and also either dehydrate some hamburger or bring some peperoni. I add the water to the dough ingrediants about an hour or two in advance to let it rise. I rehydrate the topping ingrediants and heat it up in a pot. I form individual pie crusts and cook the dough a few minutes each side right on the grate (I bring a disposable grill topper pan) or in a pan if its raining. I then imitate a "trenton tomato pie" by putting schredded cheese directly on the pie crust and pour the tomato topping on top. The heat from the topping usually melts the cheese. Wait a few minutes and then serve. |

I make dough from scratch using same recipe as at home; bread flour, salt, olive oil, and dry yeast that has been reactivated with warm water and some sugar. Like Chicagored I prepack the ingredients, but seal using my food sealer. Once water/oil added, dough has to sit a couple hours, so I may make in morning for use later in day. Takes some time, but I love the bubbly, crispy crust. To make on the grate, build fire up and let start to burn down. Roll dough as flat as possible; can use blade of paddle if needed. Toss dough onto grate for about 45-60 seconds; should be just enough to get a bit crusty. Turn over, spread coals a bit, and add ingredients - then cover with a piece of alum foil shaped into a dome covering 4-5 inches beyond edge of pizza in all directions. Watch bottom for burning and adjust heat as needed, and give about 5 minutes. Ingredients I usually use: - tomato paste mixed with some olive oil and spices (dry oregano and basil) for base - grated parmisan and kaiserman cheese - not too thick - rehydrated mushrooms, sun dried tomatoes - kalamata olives if I have some Peperoni may not heat up very well this way, but could be pre-heated in a pan or on some foil before adding to pizza. Can easily test this on any grill at home before BWCA. |

quote Chilly: " Sammy's Pizza we cooked in a pan. YUM! The key is measuring the pan or cook wear you are bringing then making or ordering a pizza to fit that pan." With onions and are those jalapenos? |
