Smoked BBQ Pizza

Leftover smoked country style pork ribs were sliced and repurposed as pizza for dinner last night.  A good friend got a Viking smoker a few months ago.  Every time he fires it up we get an email that states simply “smoker’s on”.  You don’t have to tell me twice!  We’ve tried lamb shoulder, bratwurst, turkey breast, turkey wings, hot dogs and pork ribs (favorite).  I learned to make my own pizza dough in a Cuisinart when we moved here to the land of no good restaurants.  It’s really easy.  You can also ask your grocery store or local pizza parlor if they sell dough.  The dough gets stretched on a cornmeal dusted pizza stone.  Instead of a tomato sauce for the pizza, I mixed together two of our favorite BBQ sauces and spread that on the  dough and laid sliced pork on top.  The pizza goes into a 500 degree oven for 10 minutes, then mozzarella (home made goat’s milk mozzarella last night) goes on top.  Five more minutes in the oven and it’s done.  And it’s delicious!

    We do smoked brisket on “grilling” holidays (i.e. July 4th, Memorial Day, Labor Day…) and most often our leftovers end up on a pizza like this or we’ll make individualized mini pizzas using English muffins instead of traditional dough. YUM! 🙂
