Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (enough for a 12-inch pizza) Pizza dough
- 0.3333 cup Barbecue sauce
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Cooked ham, thinly sliced
- 0.3333 cup Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 0.5 cup Pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained)
- 0.25 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Green onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Cornmeal (optional, for dusting)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.
Lightly dust a clean surface with flour and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. If you'd like a crispier crust, sprinkle cornmeal on your pizza peel or baking sheet before placing the dough on it.
Brush olive oil evenly over the surface of the dough to prevent sogginess.
Spread the barbecue sauce across the base of the pizza, leaving about 1/2 inch around the edges for the crust.
Sprinkle an even layer of shredded mozzarella cheese over the barbecue sauce base.
Distribute the ham slices, crumbled bacon, pineapple chunks, and red onion evenly across the pizza.
Sprinkle salt lightly over the toppings for added seasoning.
Carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or place the baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for 2-3 minutes.
Garnish with chopped green onion and grated Parmesan cheese before slicing and serving.
