Steps:
- Spray a 16" pizza tray with cooking spray and spread the pizza dough out onto the pizza tray to fit the tray (see note #1)
- When ready to bake the pizza, pre-heat the oven to 400°F.
- Cook 2-3 slices of thick cut, applewood smoked bacon in a skillet to your desired crispness. Reserve bacon fat.
- Use a fork to prick the pizza dough all over avoiding the crust area on the outside edge of the pizza. Use a pastry brush to brush a little bit of the bacon fat on the pizza dough. Bake the pizza dough in the oven until very lightly browned, about 8-10 minutes.
- When the pizza dough is lightly toasted, remove it from the oven and spread 1/4 cup BBQ sauce onto the pizza dough, leaving a little bit of crust area plain. This will be a thin layer of BBQ sauce.
- Evenly top the pizza with 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion, 1/2 cup diced pineapple, 1 cup pulled pork, diced bacon, and 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes more until the cheese is melted.
- Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and enjoy!

- Spray counter lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Combine dinner rolls or Texas rolls into a ball and roll into an 11x17-inch rectangle. Place on a sprayed 11x17-inch baking pan, building up edges slightly. Poke several times with a fork and pre-bake at 350°F for 10-15 minutes. Remove from oven to cool. In a small skillet, bring juice drained from pineapple to a low boil. Boil until reduced to about 2 tablespoons. Melt the butter into the juice. Add the sugar and stir until dissolved. Slice the onion into thin slices. Add to the pineapple mixture and saute, stirring frequently, until the onions just begin to turn golden. Remove from heat and set aside. Spread your prebaked crust with the pork. Sprinkle evenly with the cheese, sauted onions and pineapple. Bake at 350°F for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is nicely melted.

LEFTOVER BBQ PULLED PORK (OR SHREDDED CHICKEN) PIZZA W/PINEAPPLE
This is a recipe I came up with to use up leftover BBQ pulled pork. It was such a hit with my boys that I thought I would post it. The recipe as written uses a loaf of Rhodes bread dough as the pizza crust, but I'm sure you could use any crust of your choice, just follow the cooking instructions for that crust. I have tried this pizza on a pizza stone and on a cookie sheet, and the crust comes out crispier on a cookie sheet. Note, the prep time assumes that your bread dough has already been thawed and is ready to use.
