Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 Tbsps olive oil
  • 2 13 oz tubes refrigerated pizza dough (I used Pillsbury)
  • 16 oz block mozzarella cheese shredded (I used a box grater)
  • 1 pound ground Italian sausage cooked
  • 4 oz sliced pepperoni
  • 8 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 1/2 Tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 Tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 cups pizza sauce or marinara sauce of choice
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • Optional: fresh basil, crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions

  1. Brush all sides of a 10 to 12 inch cast iron skillet with olive oil. Lay one of the pizza crusts in the skillet and cut off remaining edges with kitchen scissors. Use the cut off pieces to fill in the sides, pressing together into one crust.

    Note: Picture examples in post above.

  2. Fill the crust with shredded cheese, cooked sausage, pepperoni, cooked bacon, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder (I did mine in layers). Place the other pizza crust over top and cut off remaining edges that hang over the cast iron skillet and discard those.

  3. Pierce the top crust a few times with a knife to prevent bubbles. Top the crust with pizza sauce and spread evenly.

  4. Place the pizza in a 375 degree oven for 40 to 50 minutes.

  5. Let it cool for 10 minutes, top with parmesan cheese and serve with fresh basil and crushed red pepper flakes if desired.
