Pizza night?
Time to kick back, chill and sloooow the heck down from a hectic week. How do I like to spend my Friday nights? Well, since I'm an old fartknocker I like going to bed early, yeah I know totally boring. But there are some nights when I want to totally chill and have a couple glasses of ice cold Prosecco with pizza and maybe sit outside and look at the water.
Here on cape cod it's hard to find a good pizza joint. We have a whole foods which does a really good job, but they haven't done a BBQ pizza....yet.
So you just need to make your own.
At least when you make your own you can put BBQ sauce on it and extra cheese, plus whatever else you fancy/crave.
For the easy recipe:
all I did was use the multi-grain pizza dough from Whole Foods, smeared a bit of spicy bbq sauce on it, then some mozzarella cheese, then some cooked bacon, then some thinly sliced sweet onions, then some cooked hamburger (don't put raw hamburg on as it might not cook all the way through).
Take a little bit of olive oil and rub the edges of the pizza crust with it.
Bake in 450-500 degree oven till nice and crispy (about 15 minutes +/-).
If you like this then you're going to love my hamburg & cheddar pizza with fig jam.
Yes fig jam--It goes so well with this pizza, you must try it.
Tasty looking right?
You need to try the fig jam on your next pizza.
oh my heaven
ReplyDeleteIf you were single, you could get any man on earth to marry you with that. Wowza.
ReplyDeleteare you trying to bring back Elvis? this pizza looks really tasty, tasty, tasty.
ReplyDeleteI go to bed really early, I guess I am a granny at heart:) I still need to try Whole Foods dough.
ReplyDeleteGreat twist on a classic. I love making my own pizza. So much better than buying it. I like the idea of BBQ sauce.
ReplyDeleteWHOA! That is a mondo pizza!
ReplyDeleteOh,yes. Two things I love in the world. Pizza and burgers. nomnomnomnom....Where's the beer?
ReplyDeleteI think this is what I have to make with the ground beef in my freezer...like ASAP! I'm not as much of a party animal as I used to be. Fridays are generally quiet for me too!
ReplyDeleteThat looks awesome Dawn! Oooh, I want to try that whole grain pizza crust dough from Whole Foods. I should have tried it out with my little pizza I made last night but I was too lazy to go out there. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI love making my own pizza, but sometimes I get a little excited over the toppings and end up using too much! That looks perfect.
ReplyDeleteAwesome. Love bbq with hamburger and hamburger pizza! :D
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a pizza! This looks great.
ReplyDeleteThat looks better than any pizza I can buy! Love the toppings!
ReplyDeleteohhh I love me some homemade pizza!
ReplyDeleteMy belly's growling looking at this!
ReplyDeleteA little drinky and some pizza? It will not take me too long to get over there you know. Any extra? By the way, there is still time to vote for recipe #5 in the blogher stovetop contest: http://www.blogher.com/vote-best-recipe-stove-top-dinner-challenge
ReplyDeleteOh, yum, that pizza sounds really good!
ReplyDeleteI love BBQ Chicken pizza but Grumpy won't eat it. I never thought about using beef so I'm going to try this one next. Looks delish!
ReplyDeletewow! that sounds delicious. i love new spins on pizza!
ReplyDeletePizza the American way....awesome!
ReplyDeleteI love bbq sauce on pizza! Looks deliiiicious!
ReplyDeleteSpicy barbecue sauce, meat and cheese? I AM SO THERE! :D
ReplyDeleteOh Dawn...you are right there Friday night! The pizza is singing to me... everything just right about it!! YUM!!
ReplyDeleteReally looks great Dawn! I love making pizza too and I love the BBQ sauce idea!
ReplyDeleteHahaha I had never heard of this! But it sounds delicious and it makes perfect sense! Why not put the BBQ cheeseburger on a flatbread?1 Thanks Dawn!
ReplyDeleteMy husband will be right over...
ReplyDeleteYummmm this looks delicious! I love Friday night pizza nights.
ReplyDeleteI've never had Prosecco before, but I'm dying to try it!
yes, THAT'S what i call a pizza. stick-to-your-ribs and stick-to-your-face. i love that you used barbecue sauce too--great touch.
ReplyDeleteWow. I am wishing I had a big slice of that right now.
ReplyDeleteYum!!! Looks so GOOD!!!
ReplyDeletesee, why chose between pizza and a burger when you can have the best of both worlds?! perfect :)
ReplyDeleteBoy does that ever look incredible! I LOVE pizza and have fun trying new flavors. Sadly the nearest whole foods to me is two hours away. =(
ReplyDeleteDarn woman, I am so hungry right now. Silly me, I did not cook today. Had a snack left back from one of my cooking ventures the other day but that was since this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately grilled KFC is not here yet but I am debating heading to a drive through nevertheless.
That's my kind of pizza! We only make homemade pizza these days, and we love to get really creative. I've got to get off Cape to Whole Foods to try that crust.
ReplyDeleteHoly smokes, does that look delish! And yum, Prosecco!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with scary mommy..
ReplyDeletegood heavens this looks heavenly!!!!!!!!!
ohh yum! I love beef on pizza but I admit for some reason I rarely eat it. If my oven ever starts working again, i will be giving this version a try.
ReplyDeleteI was in WFoods yesterday and saw that they had a shelf of pizza stuff (dough, sauce, etc.). Now that I know this one is good, I'm going to try it. And multigrain too!
ReplyDeletesounds like an awesome Friday night to me! I'm too tired to do anything on Fridays any more haha. I love GOOD food and lots of sleep. This pizza looks fab
ReplyDeleteDude, you totally called yourself a fartknocker. Haha I haven't heard that in years, and totally made my day. Listen, there's nothing wrong with taking it easy on a Friday. Some of us work on Saturday even :)
ReplyDeleteAnd pizza? Well, do I have to say more?
Oh, Dawn! This pizza looks amazing! I love cheeseburger pizza. Totally one of my Friday night favs. Mmm, mmm. I could go for a late night slice right now, in fact. Sorry that I’ve been an absent commenter; I just finished up my law school exams and am finally getting around to my google reader.
ReplyDeleteThis pizza looks mouthwatering. And it was so simple to make! Can I hang with you on a Friday night with this pizza?
ReplyDeleteNow this is one really good looking pizza! Don't you just love the versatility of pizza?
ReplyDeleteOh Dawn - you always make me drool. This pizza looks like a slice of heaven!
ReplyDeleteOh man, does that ever look fabulous!
ReplyDeleteWow.
ReplyDeleteMy husband would make this every night, I am sure.
I gave you a queen award on my blog! :)
Sounds & looks like the perfect Friday night to me! I've eaten cheeseburger pizza with mustard "sauce," but I'm digging your bbq idea.
ReplyDeleteThat looks really good.
ReplyDeleteLook soooooooooooo sinful.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness Dawn, you know how to spend your Friday nights! I will bring you an extra bottle of prosecco if you make this for me. Deal?
ReplyDeleteLooks like an amazing pizza! Sounds like our perfect Friday night too :)
ReplyDeleteLast Friday night I actually made it past midnight. Was so proud of myself. However, 51 Fridays out of a year in bed by 10. Would rather spend my Saturdays doing other stuff than hungover or tired.
ReplyDeleteStill bummed that we do not have a whole foods but doing the BBA challenge is starting to get me an ego about everything dough.
Looks awesome as usual!!!
OOO! Looks delicious, Dawn! xox
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely Dawn great idea adding barbicue sauce. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat looks good. We would all love that in my house!
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I love trying new pizza ideas!! This one looks like a keeper! YUM!
ReplyDeleteMy hubby would be speechless. Looks divine.
ReplyDeletei love pizza night...sean would probably love this pizza.
ReplyDeleteMy husband will love this! I plan to make it tonight.
ReplyDeleteCheeseburger pizza? What a wonderful idea!!!
ReplyDeleteOOOOOH MY WORD!!
ReplyDeleteI showed my DH your pizza.... and he declared that I must make this!!!
I make my pizza's almost 95% of the time... pizza shop galore around, but none that we could ever rave about!
Great post, Dawn!!
I NEED a slice of that pizza! And I'm not kidding!
ReplyDeleteI just saw Dishing Up Delights blog and the cheeseburger pizza, so you're that Dawn she mentioned! Your pizza (and other yummy goodies on the page) look so inviting I'll need to come back =)
ReplyDeleteSpirited Miu Flavor @ Foodbuzz
The bacon double cheeseburger pizza was one of my favorites when I was still ordering pizza. I like the sound of using the bbq sauce in it!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to tell you that I made this dish for Valentines Day and it was amazing! Thank you so much for the recipe, it is one we will be enjoying again and again!
ReplyDeleteGreat twist ....
ReplyDeleteBeautiful , yummy site-love the pictures! Thank you! Betty
ReplyDeleteSoooo,yum. This is my hubby favorite pizza. He likes it when I slather melted butter in the crust and dust it w/ parm cheese! mmmm
ReplyDeleteNice looking pizza! We had an awesome pizza with bbq sauce, chicken and blueberrries in Chatham that we simply loved. We've been experimenting with sauces and toppings ever since.
ReplyDeleteYou must give me directions to Mama Mia's.
I miss you and the blogging world...hopefully I'll be back soon.
