Homemade Grilled pizza dough

I love this dough for the grill as it holds up to the grill and doesn't burn as easily, but crisps up really nicely.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 2/3 cups water
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons dry active yeast or 1 packet
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 4 1/2-5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Mix the water and yeast together in the bowl of a stand mixer or a large mixing bowl. Let stand for a few minutes until the yeast is dissolved. Add the flour and salt. Mix with a dough hook until a loose, floury dough is formed. Slowly drizzle in the oil and mix until combined.
  • Knead the dough on low speed with a dough hook for 5 to 7 minutes, or knead by hand on the counter for 6 to 8 minutes. When kneaded, the dough should form a smooth ball, feel smooth to the touch, and spring slowly back when poked.
  • Let the dough rise at room temperature for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until it has doubled in bulk.
  • Divide the dough into 8 pieces and then let rise for another 30 minutes.
  • At this point the dough can be used immediately, or refrigerated or frozen for later use.
  • This dough can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. After that it should be cooked or frozen.
