BBQ Pulled Pork Pizza Ingredients
Meat: 6 oz of shredded pulled pork leftovers.
Don’t have leftovers? Don’t sweat, you can use freshly made pulled pork too.
Sauce and Seasoning: There is no better sauce to pair with pulled pork pizza than the most delicious BBQ sauce and ½ tsp BBQ Dry Rub.
Pizza Dough: I recommend trying your hand at making your own pizza dough, it’s easier than you may think. However, you can also buy pizza dough at your local grocery store. Sometimes you can find it fresh, never frozen, and other times you can find it in the freezer section.
Toppings: What’s a pizza without its toppings?! Top off your pizza with only the best like fresh jalapeños, red onion, and shredded cheddar cheese
Flour: Semolina Flour is used to prevent your dough from sticking to the peel.
How to make BBQ Pulled Pork Pizza
Preheat the Oven. Preheat your Ooni Pizza oven to about 900 degrees F. Using your choice of hardwood or lump charcoal. The pre-heating process should take about 15-20 minutes.
Roll Dough. Use a rolling pin to evenly roll out pizza dough. Once even, hand stretch the dough until you have a 10-12 inch pizza.
TIP: Make sure to dust the rolling pin and the board with semolina flour to prevent sticking.
Flour and Top the Pizza. Once the dough is stretched out dust the pizza peel with semolina flour and place dough onto the peel. Top the pizza with a thin layer of bbq sauce the cheese and toppings.
Temperature Check. Use your inferred thermometer to check the deck temperature of the pizza stone. Once it’s 900 degrees F slide the pizza onto the center of the stone.
Watch the pizza. Keep an eye on the back of the pizza closest to the flame. Turn the pizza every 20-30 seconds as you see the edges of the crust bubbling up until the pizza is fully cooked all the way around.
Transfer and Cut. Use the peel to transfer the pizza to a serving tray or cutting board. Slice into the desired amount of pieces and serve immediately.

A pizza peel is a tool you use to place pizzas in the oven without spilling any of the ingredients off the top of your pizza. If you go out a pizza place that still uses a wood burning pizza oven, you will see them whip one out!

This is helpful to take the temperature of the oven to ensure if is hot enough before you put the pizza in.

I prefer these pizza cutters over the round wheel cutters any day of the week. They are quick and easy and you look way more badass!
