Ingredients

1 pizza dough - use my homemade version or store-bought
1/2 cup barbecue sauce - store-bought or homemade
3/4 cup cooked chicken - I used rotisserie chicken
3 slices bacon - cooked
1/4 cup red onion - sliced thin
1 cup white cheddar cheese - or mozzarella

Instructions

Follow my simple recipe for Homemade Pizza Dough. This dough is pretty quick, and you can mix it up about an hour before you start the pizza assembly. It really does make the BEST pizza!
1 pizza dough
Prep toppings. Cook the bacon, slice the onion, shred the chicken, shred the cheese.
Assemble pizza. Roll out the dough and transfer to a baking stone or skillet/pan. You can make the dough as thin or thick as you like. Then add the barbecue sauce, shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, sliced red onion, and white cheddar (or mozzarella) cheese. Add parmesan, if desired.
1/2 cup barbecue sauce, 3/4 cup cooked chicken, 3 slices bacon, 1/4 cup red onion, 1 cup white cheddar cheese
Bake/Grill pizza. Cook pizza at a high temp. We use at least 450 degrees in our oven or at least 500 degrees on our grill/smoker. Pizza is done when the crust is nice and browned on the bottom.

Notes

For all of my pizza recipes, you can choose to bake them 1) in cast iron skillets in the oven or on a grill, 2) on baking sheets in the oven, or 3) on pizza stones in either the oven, grill, or smoker. We tend to rotate how we cook them based on the weather outside and how many people we are feeding.
