Preheat the Griddle: Set your griddle to a low temperature. The key to perfect griddle pizza is cooking it low and slow.

Prepare the Dough: Stretch the fresh store-bought dough to your desired shape and thickness. Remember, thinner dough cooks faster and gives a crispier crust. Use a fork to poke small holes all over the dough. This helps prevent large air bubbles from forming during cooking.

Cook the Dough: Place the stretched dough on the preheated griddle. Cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until it turns lightly brown. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning. Once both sides are lightly browned, transfer the dough to a cooling rack.

Build Your Pizza: Now it's time to assemble your pizza. Start with a generous layer of marinara sauce, followed by freshly shredded mozzarella cheese, and finish with pepperoni or your favorite toppings.

Melt the Cheese: Place the assembled pizza back on the griddle, still on the cooling rack. Add a little water to the griddle to create steam, then cover the pizza with a dome lid. This steam will help melt the cheese evenly. If you prefer, you can also pop the pizza in the oven on broil for about 2 minutes to get that perfect, bubbly cheese topping.

Serve and Enjoy: Once the cheese is melted and bubbly, your griddle-cooked pepperoni pizza is ready to serve. Slice it up and enjoy the deliciousness!
