My son loves Pulled Pork. I am okay with it. I do love barbecue sauce though. So, when he asked for Pulled Pork Pizza I was okay with it. I put the pork loin in the slow cooker first thing in the morning and when I got home later in the day I was able to put the pizza together and have dinner on the table within 30 minutes! Score!
You can make your own pizza dough but I was in a time crunch so I stopped at the store and bought a one pound dough ball for $1.50. Whichever you use make sure the dough is warmed to at least room temperature before you work with it. I leave my dough on the stove top in a bowl with a tea towel covering it to warm.
Best part of this meal was I had extra pork leftover for my son to have his favorite lunch the next day Pulled Pork Grilled Cheese Sandwiches (click for link to recipe).
Verdict:
We love barbecue sauce on pizza. I think I actually prefer it to red sauce. Maybe because it is a bit sweeter but to me it is the best on pizza. Add in some onion, cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese and it was a delicious pizza!
I served this with a green salad to complete the meal.
Pulled Pork Pizza
Ingredients:
- 1 lb. ball pizza dough (homemade or store purchased)
- Barbecue sauce for sauce (as much or as little as your family likes)
- 2 cups pulled pork – I made mine in the slow cooker just before using it but this would be a great use for leftovers
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 sweet onion, thinly sliced
- extra barbecue sauce or ranch dressing, if desired for dipping sauce
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Spread dough on a lightly greased rimmed baking pan or pizza stone to your desired size and thickness.
- Spread the top with extra barbecue sauce, again make it as saucy as your family likes.
- Sprinkle the pulled pork over the sauce. Follow with sprinkling the onion, cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese over the pizza.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes until bottom of the crust is turning golden brown and top is just starting to brown.
- Remove pan from oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before cutting.
- Serve with extra barbecue sauce or ranch dressing if desired.
I wish I was at your house this week! All of your dinners look so fantastic 🙂
