I have been making a lot of pizzas on the grill this year. It took a long time of testing, trying, and testing some more. Now, I’m very happy with our homemade dough and homemade sauce. And now I can say I’m also happy with our homemade Italian sausage. It’s very easy to make but still packs a nice spicy flavor. It’s perfect for pizzas, calzones, or hoagies.

Great Sausage For Pizzas
Nothing beats a pizza hot off a charcoal- or wood-fired grill, specially if it’s loaded with homemade Italian sausage. I use a Kettle Pizza adapter on my 22″ Weber charcoal grill. It’s great any time I want to recreate that awesome classic pizza flavor.
