Use a pizza peel to gently lift the pizza crust and inspect the underside of the pizza. Make sure that the crust is cooked and not burnt.

For the perfect crispy crust leave the pizza on the grill for anywhere between 5-7 minutes. For a crisper crust, you may need an additional minute or two. But make sure to keep an eye on the pizza to prevent burning. 

There are no soggy bottoms when your pizza stone cooks the pizza base from underneath just like a pizza oven does.

Use the wooden pizza paddle or an aluminum pizza peel to remove the pizza from the Hans grill pizza stone. 

Grab your pizza slicer and make the first cut.

The crispy crust is perfect.
