Nothing says summer like grilling. At our office on the northern plains, summer Fridays are a commodity as valuable as what our farmers grow: wheat, sugar beets and sunflowers (many of which are then made into SunButter, of course).
It’s a long-standing tradition to grill lunch on Fridays for our employees and clients.
Here’s something we’d never grilled before: Pizza. And not just pizza: SunButter® Pizza. On a wood pellet-fired WoodMaster grill.
NOTE: When using a WoodMaster pellet grill
-
- Place 4 aluminum cans (usually pop cans) on the grill and then place the pizza on a cookie sheet.
- Put pizza crust on a cookie sheet and balance the cookie sheet on the cans. I used Boboli® crust, but you can make your own crust as well. See the instructions below.
- Close the lid and grill for approximately 20 minutes. It may take a little longer, but it’s well worth the wait! The wood pellets give the pizza amazing flavor!

How to make grilled pizza
- Slice and saute any veggies you need before you start working with the dough
- Preheat your gas grill on high for 10-15 minutes
- For wood grill, heat it to high
- Using a pastry brush or your hands, spread olive oil over the dough. Flip over and brush the other side.
- Bring everything to the grill.
- Pour yourself a nice beverage to enjoy.
- I like to put my dough on a big piece of foil. That way, it stays in one piece when you transfer it to the grill.
- With one quick motion, flip the dough upside down on the grill and peel off the foil.
- Close the lid and grill for approximately 3-4 minutes. Make sure it doesn’t burn. You want those nice grill marks on the bottom!
- Transfer to cutting board, grilled side up and add sauce, toppings, cheese and sprinkle with seasonings.
- Turn one of the two grill burners off. Place pizza back on the grill, cover and grill for another 10 minutes or so, until the cheese is melted and bubbly and bottom is browned and cooked through. If the bottom starts to cook faster than you expected, turn the pizza around or move it to another spot.
- Remove to cutting board, slice and serve with a bit more of your favorite beverage!
- Serves two of us, but should serve four!

SunButter balls with homeschooled kids
I saw a peanut butter balls recipe a while back from Christy at Southern Plate. I immediately thought, “We can do that with SunButter®!” And, so, this morning, we finished up school and that’s exactly what we did.
No-bake, nut-free SunButter pie adaptations, taste review
Adapting recipes is one of my hobbies. The other day, it was too hot to turn on the oven, yet I needed a cool dessert for an office potluck lunch. Enter: SunButter®, in the Frozen SunButter Pie recipe. I also wanted to gather my colleagues’ impressions of the flavors and textures. This dessert was quick and easy to make, affordable and got rave reviews. Best of all, it was simple to adapt.
