Game 3 Meal Meatball Kebobs Meet Pizza

I was due for this, and what better a time than a supersports weekend?

First task was to make the little baseballs... I mean meatballs. Mix the ground beef with all the goodies like bread crumbs, Italian seasonings, parsley, crushed red pepper, etc. They handle real nicely when you get the bat... I mean the skewers on them. And it's off to the pit to cook them indirect.





Now they're ready to finish topping my pizza. Once again, I made a 100% whole wheat dough, with homemade sauce, and Moozarella. Used my GraniteWare pizza pan to hold it. Switched over to a direct heat, but I made sure to get my hickory smoking first to enjoy that woodfired flavor.



It does not take long at all to cook with the GraniteWare. In fact, I done overdid this one a tad-- call it a "Pumpernickel" crust if you like , but you know what?-- It didn't matter! To my surprise, it was still quite the treat, and I had no regrets. I guess it's kind of like some people like a light toast, while others like a really dark toast.



Here is a closer look. Oh yeah, I got a few bell pepper strips on there too. Mmmm...meatballs on a deep crust!

That is freakin' awesome!!

Well, thank you Dyal Now the beauty is I've got an easy go of it for both Game 4 and the Chargers today as well. Woohoo!

Awesome looking pizza. Those meat balls look killer.

Looks great...well....all except them green things on the pizza.

Thank you Jsperk and Griffin

Griffin, would you rather they be blue?

Those meatballs look mighty tasty, BC...did you use all of them on the pizza or did you save a few for some pasta sauce? I suppose I could count them to be sure but I'm taking the lazy way out.

That is one killer looking pizza!!! With all of those meatballs, you could feed quite a crowd.....

Red, orange or yellow would have been ok, I can't stand green bell peppers. (And yeah, I get where the blue comment came from)

Thank you for your kindness, Brad and Jimmy

Brad, I used all but one on the pizza (quality control purposes).

Jimmy, you're not kidding... I cut the pizza into 8 slices, and 2 per meal were enough to fill me up (that, and a salad)! How did your cookout go???

Oh, I'm sorry, Griffin. I appreciate that. Can't say that I'd approve of liver on there. Anyway, here we go, just for you, I am fixing it... They're red now (although I can't say I'm too happy about the green meatballs-- I try to avoid those).

St. Patrick's day pizza!

Take care,

Derek
