Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the grill.

We turn the grill up to full blast, then put the lid on to let it heat up. Then we use our oven thermometer to monitor the heat. When it reaches 450° to 500°F, we turn the heat down slightly and move on to the next step.

Preheat a cast iron pot.

Put a large cast iron pot on the grill as it nears the baking temperature, and put the lid back on. You could probably use a pizza stone as well, but we don't currently have one, and so we've just used the pot. Let the pot continue heating with the grill for at least another 15 minutes.

Pour in the bread dough.

The main thing to watch out for is temperature — both inside and out. Keep an eye on grill temperature; if it's too high, the bottom will cook very fast and get a little burned and stuck to the pan, as happened to us the first time we tried this. And then make sure to doublecheck your bread's temperature before you take it off the grill.
