Pizza: Grill It, Bake It, Love It! Paperback – December 23, 2008

This is the second book I've received in 2 weeks that was damaged. Not enough to return, but not a book you would buy off the shelf.I also ordered 5 books to fill an eleven volumne set I've been reading. While starting in used books,I found 3 of the books at one source and 2 at another; each one being charged separate shipping, even from the same source: $35. I checked the new and with free shipping, (a good thing): $35. I understand separate shipping from different sellers, but, not from the same seller, which I understand is an Amazon thing.

I am a baker. I did not find this book to be reader friendly. I also did not like the heaviness of the doughs. I recomend getting some little packets of pizza yeast and fallowing the recipe on the back. The sauces are all very bland and do not help the heavy crust. I have a convection oven with a ability to turn of convection function. I made pizza both ways by their "rules". I realized that the time for cooking is not correct. It burns the pizza every time if you leave it in the full amount the put in book. Do not get this pizza. If you want a great pizza crust, go to Mexico one Plate at a time with RIck Bayless and look up his beer pizza crust. You do not have to put on the chipoltle and chirazo, etc. . . just use the crust. It is light and delicious, and so so so easy!

This is another awesome cookbook. I've made a few of the recipes in this cookbook. The pizza dough recipes are so flavorful and pretty easy to make. I can't wait to make more recipes from this cookbook. I don't have a grill, so I have had to bake them. If you use a pizza stone in the oven though they come out perfect.

This book is extremely well written, and is easily followed. The recipes make excellent pizza from the dough to the sauce. I truly appreciate the erudite cheese and flour explanations, which have been critical to my success. The picture on the book is quite representative of what can be achieved using this book. I really love that! And would highly recommend this book.

This book is full of different pizza recipes. It also tells and shows, how to do your dough. It has tips on grilling, baking, and more. The majority of the recipes are more of a gourmet type pizza recipes. There are some easier ones, too. If you like a more basic pizza, then you might want to pass on this book. I had to look up some of the cheeses that are listed in some of the recipes. Most of the recipes are very simple to follow with the step by step instructions. My one complaint is that there aren't pictures of all the recipes. It would be very helpful to have a picture with each recipes. Sometimes just reading the recipe, does not let you really know if it is something you want to try making or eating.

Pizza is my favorite food so how fun to find a whole cookbook devoted to it. Within the pages of Pizza: Grill It, Bake It, Love It! are some classic recipes alongside modern variations that inspire me to step outside the "pepperoni and mozzarella" pizza box.The first section of the book gives recipes for basic crusts and sauces (the olive oil pizza dough and no-cook pizza sauce were good), followed by pizza categories that include appetizers, salad pizzas, international, modern, and deep-dish pizzas. Instructions for cooking techniques are also covered whether using a grill, oven, baking sheet or pizza stone. I've always been intimidated by the idea of doing pizza on the grill but thanks to the instructions given, I think I may try it.Saturday night is pizza night at our house so I'm happy to have dozens of recipes to choose from thanks to this book. Some of the non-traditional recipes I'm looking forward to trying include enchilada pizza, Tandoori chicken pizza, pizza style focaccia, and spinach and ricotta pizza, as well as several of the deep-dish versions.I like cookbooks with lots of photos so the only downside is that this one doesn't have many, just a few in the center, but I still recommend the book.

The recipes themselves seem pretty good (I haven't tried any yet), however there is a noticable lack of photography in the book. There are 3-5 pictures in the center of the book. Part of my love of cookbooks are the pictures!

Since our purchase of Pizza, grill it , bake it love it my wife and I are addicted to Sunday night pizza dinners. Nothing could be more fun, inexpensive and easy than a pizza. We have tried many of the several varieties and the variations are logical and simple to create. I recommend this book highly, you will save a bundle on pizza shop pizzas, cook healthy and have a blast doing it.

Great sound quality although it could stand to be a bit louder, not an issue for me as I have excellent hearing. Comfortable and easy to use.

Contains some good recipes, but a little disappointing on the inside - no pictures, just text. It would be nice to see images of the food alongside the recipes.
