We started this website to help people cook more often and more joyfully, with the idea that the kitchen is the hearth of the home, the warm place. It is by spending time there that we connect and grow.

We asked grill master friends for advice, and then finally, we hit the sweet spot.
Needless to say, all this troubleshooting came in quite handy when we decided to grill pizza for our porch party earlier this month! Here are 5 things we learned in our quest for better grilled pizza:
