Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). On a floured surface, stretch or roll the pizza dough into a round shape about 1/2 inch thick. Transfer to a pizza stone or baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal.

  2. 2

    Add the Sauce

    Spread the housemade pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving about 1/2 inch around the edges for the crust.

  3. 3

    Layer the Cheese

    Sprinkle the aged mozzarella cheese over the sauce evenly to cover it.

  4. 4

    Add the Meat Toppings

    Layer the pepperoni, spicy capicola, ham, Italian sausage, and crumbled bacon on top of the cheese.

  5. 5

    Bake the Pizza

    Drizzle olive oil around the edges of the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot.
