Learn how to make the perfect pizza with an underused method that will convince your tastebuds that you're at a fancy pizzeria.

Pizza is one of the most popular foods in the world. But homemade pizza rarely hits the crispy-chewy-charred trifecta—and that’s because many of us don’t own a wood-burning oven. By employing one brilliant, simple trick—cooking pizzas on a wooden plank—you can transform your gas or charcoal grill into an appliance that rivals any pizza oven.

Pizza on a Plank offers an easy-to-follow introduction to plank grilling, including where to buy food-safe planks, the best methods for soaking and seasoning them, gas vs. charcoal plank-grilling techniques, how to pair different woods (such as hickory, cedar, alder, and mesquite) with their ideal pizza toppings, and much more. More than 40 inventive savory and sweet pizza recipes—plus doughs and sauces—will have you eagerly firing up the grill. Includes mouthwatering full-color photography.

The 80 recipes are divided into six chapters that include Dips in a Dash (made in 15 mins), Dips for Grazing (sides and snacks), Dips for Dinner, Dips for Feasting, Dips to Impress (showstoppers that require a bit more effort) and Dips for Dessert.
