What's this?
We "pulled" out all the stops for this one. Melt-in-your mouth leftover bbq pulled pork, homemade dough, sticky sweet BBQ sauce and tons of cheese make this wood-fired pizza a winner.
Ingredients
1 1/2 Cup water
2 Yeast, active
2 Teaspoon sugar
1/4 Cup olive oil
1 Teaspoon salt
4 Cup flour
2 Cup Cornmeal
2 Cup Traeger Sweet & Heat BBQ Sauce
3 Cup mozzarella cheese
1 Pound pulled pork
To Taste Traeger Prime Rib Rub
To Taste red onion, sliced
To Taste cilantro, finely chopped
Steps
1
To Make the Dough: Pour warm water into a bowl, add the yeast and stir gently. Let sit for 5 minutes or until it starts to foam. Stir in sugar, oil and salt. Add flour and combine until the dough forms a ball.2
Brush a large bowl lightly with olive oil and place the dough inside. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let sit until the dough has doubled in size (approximately one hour). Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 4 to 5 times. Let rest for 15 minutes.3
While dough is resting, start the Traeger and set the temperature to 450 degrees F (set to 500 degrees if using a WiFIRE-enabled grill) and preheat, lid closed 10-15 minutes.4
Sprinkle your surface generously with cornmeal. Cut the dough in half and roll into circles, on top of the cornmeal to approximately 1/4" inch thickness.5
Spread 1 cup of the Traeger Sweet Heat BBQ sauce evenly over each round of pizza dough. Add 1/2 cup cheese to each pizza (or more if you prefer your pizza extra cheesy). Chop the pulled pork and spread over the cheese.6
Sprinkle a layer of the Traeger Prime Rib Rub over the pizzas. Move pizzas to the grill with a pizza peel or the bottom side of a sheet pan.7
Cook for 15 to 25 minutes, rotating pizza every 5 minutes. Remove pizza and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Top with sliced red onion and chopped cilantro. Enjoy!
