Summary: The BEST Pizza On The Grill book money can buy. Don't miss this one!
Comment: I've had a love affair with grilled pizza ever since the publisher, The Taunton Press, sent me Pizza On The Grill for review! If you've never tried grilled pizza before, make sure you buy this book first. It'll save a lot of headaches and burnt pizza if you know what you're doing before hand.
This book is amazing! It not only has 50 or so pizza recipes - everything from Pepperoni Pizza to Very Berry Dessert Pizza - but it also has another 50 plus recipes for dips, salads, pestos and pizza sauces. But don't forget the most important recipe, the pizza dough! The recipes conclude with a "Drink This" suggestion, pairing not just wine, but beer, smoothies, ice tea and even a cold glass of milk with your pizza!
Elizabeth Karmel and Bob Blumer do an excellent job of teaching the novice all the way up to the most experienced pizza maker how to grill pizzas the right way. It took me a few times to master the timing, but once I did, I was hooked for life! Once you've had Pizza On The Grill, you'll never go back to boring oven baked pizza again! Trust me! It's that good!
Elizabeth and Bob - Kudos on a great cookbook. It's now my one-and-only "Pizza Bible"! You Guys Rock! If you're ever in my neck of the woods, stop over and I'll do the grilling! You can bring the wine...we love Shiraz!

Summary: As Good as A Pizzeria
Comment: I originally heard about the author and her book from NBC's Today Show. It is a great book if you love pizza and want an authentic pizzeria taste without leaving home. The sauces are quick and easy... most from the pantry. The dough recipe is outstanding (foolproof) even using a bread machine and makes two pizzas... one to use then the other to freeze for another quick evening meal. Some of the recipes could be time consuming and require lots of ingredients; however, I've found them easily adaptable to comfort level. This cookbook is worth having on the shelve.

The instructions are precise, both for charcoal and gas grills. The recipes are wonderful and easy to create. Once you try pizza on the grill, you will never want to buy another pizza.

Summary: Pizza is a perfect food . . . . . here are some perfect recipes
Comment: This book is a pizza.
Just as pizza is a perfect food, this is a perfect book about pizza. The intelligent reader may never use a recipe from this book; that's because it's a book of ideas. The "perfect pizza" is one you create, and the great strength of this book is ideas for crusts and toppings.
Cinn-O-Bun pizza? Kung Pao Cashew pizza? Yukon Gold? Lucy in the Sky with Pizza? Chicken, chutney or chocolate? Fire roasted veggies are one thing; but, what about asparagus? How about blistered corn? Or Blueberries and raspberries with honey?
This book brims with ideas.
Beginners get a clear introduction in creating and grilling a great crust. Remember, the crust is not just a chunk of dough rolled flat. It is also a work of art. Start with basics, which are well explained; then, your toppings become the genius of your great pizza.
The recipes are wonderful, varied, inspired and interesting. But it's my contention "the perfect pizza" is a delight to your personal taste -- not mine or anyone else. Your taste buds will tire of monotony unless you try variety. Broccoli? Would that work? These recipes will spark the imagination with plenty of "Hey! I never thought of that ... I wonder what it will taste like with a little ....."
Remember, pizza is not a burger. Mickey D created the world's most beloved hamburger by adding four slices of pickle. That's all it took. There's no way to create an "enduring pizza' by a similar simple trick. Every one is a signature of its maker.
I've been making pizzas for 40 years, and I wish I'd come up with at least some of these ideas. Had I done so, I'd probably be writing books instead of book reviews. Here's your chance to leapfrog into a creative pizza future.
Every recipe will produce a wonderful meal -- including pizza for breakfast. Why not? Start with six eggs . . . . Before long, you'll produce your own pizza that's as good as this book.
