Grilled Breakfast Pizza… Wolfgang Puck, Look Out!

      Comments Off on Grilled Breakfast Pizza… Wolfgang Puck, Look Out!

I am not sure why it has taken me so long to take the plunge on grilling pizza but I regret my delay.  Maybe it was the fear of completely torching the crust that kept me away.  Or maybe it was just the fact that you can’t really argue with the years of success of the well-known kitchen appliance… the oven.  Nevertheless we decided last weekend to give the grilled pizza a shot and now I am absolutely hooked!  After last weekend’s success of dinner pizza (let’s be honest you couldn’t really screw up with the toppings we had) we decided that we were going to try to replicate the delicious goodness of the Wolfgang Puck Express grilled breakfast pizza that can be found at the newly named Disney Springs.

I got up early this morning and dusted off our bread machine and loaded in the ingredients for the fresh pizza dough.  If the bread machine could talk it would have done a double take and asked “you talkin’ to me?”  After 1 hour the dough was ready to go and we were one step closer to grilled breakfast pizza goodness.  We cooked some Applewood Smoked Bacon, eggs, sliced some tomatoes and added some homemade white sauce and cheese and threw it on the grill.  Below you can see the cooking in action.  Those of you geometry experts need not remind me that my pizza does not resemble a circle in the least bit.  One of the things I am still trying to master will grilled pizza is how I can put the dough down on the hot grill but still manage to have it retain some recognizable shape.

Grilled Breakfast Pizza - Wolfgang Puck Knockoff

Because it was a beautiful morning we decided to take in the great outdoors and enjoy are Wolfgang Puck Knockoff Grilled Breakfast Pizza in the fresh air.  Being that it was our first attempt I would have to give us a 7 on a 10 scale.  It was good but I think we can improve upon our recipe next time.  That said if you have hesitated trying to grill pizza let me be the first to say jump in and give it a shot.  It really is a lot of fun and gives the pizza a really great flavor.  I have to say that the grilled breakfast pizza was the closest attempt we have made at replicating the delicious breakfast goodness.
