Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the Toppings
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced pork belly and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet, add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Combine the cooked pork belly and ground beef with the pepperoni slices.

Assemble the Pizza
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the base, leaving a small border around the edges. Evenly distribute the meat mixture (pepperoni, pork belly, and ground beef) over the sauce, then sprinkle the smoked cheddar cheese on top.

Bake the Pizza
Carefully transfer the pizza (with parchment) onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
