In the mood for a different type of pizza? Try this pulled pork pizza - it will hit the spot!
I used the Fleischmann's Pizza Crust Yeast, about 1 pound of pulled pork (I bought Wegman's from their dinner to go counter - they sell it by the pound), about 1/3 of a bottle of Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce {I tried the vidalia onion because I wanted a savory BBQ sauce}, half a red onion, and one green pepper, and one 8 ounce bag of Wegmans pizza blend shredded cheese. The pizza blend has provolone in it, which I really like for my pizzas. I used 2 of the yeast packets, because I have a large pizza pan, and we like a thicker crust. So:
about 4 1/2 cups of flour (divided - start with 2 cups)
2 envelopes of pizza yeast
3 teaspoons of sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons of salt
1 1/3 cup of very warm water
6 Tablespoons of olive oil
Preheat the over to 425 degrees. Spray pizza pan with PAM.
Combine 2 cups of flour, yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add the water and oil. Mix until well blended. Gradually add the remaining flour, stirring with a wooden spoon. Dough will be sticky, but forming a ball shape. Knead on a floured surface, adding additional flour if the dough gets too sticky. Knead about 4 minutes, and either roll or press the dough so it fits in the pizza pan.
Meanwhile, slice the pepper into rings, and slice the onion into thin semi-circles. Saute' in a bit of oil still softened. Squeeze the BBQ sauce on the crust, then smooth into a thin, even layer. Top evenly with the pulled pork.
Add the sliced peppers and onions, and then sprinkle liberally with cheese. Bake at 425 degrees for about 15 minutes, or till crust is a golden brown and cheese is melted. Yum, dig in!
