Made dough from scratch for the first time last Friday. Let it rise in the fridge overnight like the recipe said. Topped with sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, and fresh basil. Used my cast iron skillet in the oven at 500 degrees for about 15 minutes. Kids actually ate it without complaining and asked for more. Might make this a regular thing honestly.
Dude, when homemade stuff actually works out it's the best feeling. Getting the kids involved in making their own pizza is peak dad energy right there.
Nice work on the overnight fridge rise, that's the move. Pizza night is such a solid family thing to do, we try to make that a regular Friday thing when work schedules allow.
That's awesome, homemade pizza from scratch is legit. My kids always get way more excited about food when we make it together, even if it's not perfect.
This is awesome. My kids are still too little to help much with the cooking but I'm definitely doing this when they get a bit older. Homemade pizza just hits different.
YES! Pizza night from scratch is the move. We do this every Friday now and it's become sacred in our house. Kids love helping stretch the dough and picking their own toppings. Did you make multiple pies or just one?
Nice dude! The overnight fridge rise makes all the difference. I tried rushing it once and the dough was terrible. How'd your family react to it?
Homemade pizza dough from scratch is no joke. The overnight fridge thing is key. I tried once without letting it rest long enough and it was like chewing a hockey puck. Your kids must have been stoked.
This is such a solid weekend activity. I do something similar with my boys and they love it because they get to put their own toppings on. Makes them feel like they made dinner.

Did you do it on the grill or in the oven? I've been wanting to try grilling pizza but I'm nervous about the heat distribution.
