Ingredients

• 1 ball (approximately 1 pound) Pizza dough
• 2 cups (fully cooked) Pulled pork
• 1 cup Barbecue sauce
• 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cups Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 0.5 thinly sliced Red onion
• 2 tablespoons (chopped, optional) Fresh cilantro
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons (for dusting) All-purpose flour

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C). If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are evenly distributed for even heating.

Step 2

On a clean surface, lightly dust with flour. Roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle or to your preferred thickness.

Step 3

Brush one side of the rolled-out dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Set aside.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the pulled pork with 1/2 cup of barbecue sauce until well-coated.

Step 5

Carefully place the pizza dough, oiled side down, directly onto the grill grates. Close the lid and grill for 2-3 minutes, or until the dough starts to bubble and grill marks form on the underside.

Step 6

Carefully remove the dough from the grill. Place it grilled side up on a clean baking sheet or cutting board.

Step 7

Brush the grilled side of the dough with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Spread the remaining 1/2 cup of barbecue sauce evenly over the surface.

Step 8

Evenly distribute the pulled pork across the pizza, then top with the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses.

Step 9

Sprinkle the thinly sliced red onion over the cheese layer.

Step 10

Carefully return the pizza to the grill. Close the lid and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.

Step 11

Using a large spatula or pizza peel, remove the pizza from the grill and transfer to a cutting board.

Step 12

Sprinkle with chopped cilantro, if desired, for a burst of freshness.

Step 13

Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy your smoky, savory grilled pulled pork pizza!
