I just put a frozen pizza on a gas grill -- rate my chance for success

[deucemagnet]

It's damn hot, and I'm not turning the oven on, so the frozen pizza is on the gas grill. Rate my chances of success on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being certain success, and 1 being Bush-caliber dumbfuckery.

Here are the facts you need to know to make your decision. It's an Elio's frozen cheese pizza, no toppings, about 12" diameter. The grill is a Thermos gas grill with two burners. One burner is on high, and the pizza was placed over the lit burner, still frozen, and on tin foil.

I've gotta check on the pizza. I'll be back with updates on my progress shortly.

1. Turn the grill down!

Put it on lowest, let the thing thaw up and then grill it. Otherwise you'll end up with a pizza that's crisp on the outside but raw on the inside.

2. Just took it off.

I must say I'm amazed by the results. If I'd waited 20 minutes or whatever it said on the package, it would have been burnt to a crisp, but it cooked in less than half the time and it's a beautiful, bubbly golden brown and cooked right through, brown but not burnt on the bottom. I've never seen one of these come out of the oven looking so good.

Serendipity rocks! Beer and pizza time!

5. Update: It passes the taste test.

Screw the oven, it won't see another frozen pizza 'til January.
