Instructions:

Preheat your outdoor pizza oven or grill to high heat around 500F or 260C

Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness

Transfer the dough to a pizza peel or an inverted baking sheet dusted with cornmeal to prevent sticking

Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust

Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese over the sauce

Layer on the pepperoni, bell peppers, red onions, black olives, and mushrooms

Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the toppings

Sprinkle dried oregano, salt, and pepper on top

Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated outdoor oven or grill

Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned

Remove the pizza from the oven or grill using a pizza peel or spatula

Tear the fresh basil leaves and scatter them over the hot pizza

Drizzle with a little olive oil for extra flavor

Slice the pizza and serve immediately at your outdoor wine and pizza party
