⚖️ Adjust Recipe Servings / Pizzas:
This balanced meat-lovers pizza packs in sausage, pepperoni and bacon without overwhelming the crust. Cooking and draining the sausage first keeps the pizza crisp.
Ingredients
- 1 ball pizza dough (about 250 g)
- 120 g pizza sauce
- 150 g mozzarella, grated
- 100 g Italian sausage meat
- 50 g sliced pepperoni
- 40 g cooked bacon, chopped
- 1 tablespoon finely grated parmesan
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Method
- Brown the sausage in a small frying pan, breaking it into pea-sized pieces. Drain on paper towel.
- Preheat a pizza stone or heavy tray at the oven’s highest temperature for 35 minutes.
- Stretch the dough to 30 cm and spread with a thin layer of sauce.
- Add mozzarella, sausage, pepperoni and bacon in an even layer. Sprinkle with parmesan and oregano.
- Bake until deeply golden at the rim and crisp underneath. Rest briefly before cutting.
Pizza 0 tip: More meat does not mean a better pizza. Small, evenly spaced pieces give every slice flavour while allowing steam to escape.
Make it your own
Add pickled jalapeños after baking or replace bacon with thinly sliced ham.
