This Blackstone Calzone recipe offers a delicious and easy way to enjoy a classic Italian favorite cooked perfectly on a Blackstone grill. Featuring pre-made pizza dough filled with savory pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, and pizza sauce, these calzones are griddled until golden and crispy. They make a satisfying meal perfect for casual dinners or gatherings.

Ingredients

For the Stromboli:

  • 1 pkg Pre-made Pizza Dough (13.8 ounces)
  • 1/2 cup Pizza Sauce
  • 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
  • 4 ounces Sliced Pepperoni
  • 1 Tablespoon Avocado Oil
  • 2 teaspoons Garlic Salt

Instructions

  1. Divide Dough: Divide the pizza dough into two equal pieces to prepare two calzones.
  2. Roll and Fill: Roll out one piece of dough on a lightly floured surface. Spread half of the pizza sauce on one side of the dough, then layer half of the sliced pepperoni and half of the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce, covering just half of the dough.
  3. Fold Dough: Carefully fold the dough over the fillings to create a half-moon shape and press the edges together to seal the filling inside. Repeat the process with the remaining dough and ingredients to prepare the second calzone.
  4. Preheat Grill: Preheat the Blackstone Grill to low heat, approximately 300°F. Spread avocado oil evenly across the grill surface to prevent sticking.
  5. Season Grill Surface: Sprinkle garlic salt over the oiled grill surface for added flavor before placing the calzones.
  6. Cook Calzones: Place the calzones on the grill. Cook them while flipping every 30 seconds to 1 minute to avoid excessive browning. Continue rotating and flipping under the closed lid for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is fully cooked through and browned evenly.
  7. Rest and Serve: Remove the cooked calzones from the grill and let them rest for 10-15 minutes to allow fillings to settle. Then cut them in half and serve warm.

Notes

  • Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • You can customize the filling with any favorite toppings to suit your taste preferences.
