For our interpretation, we’ve opted for a soft base topped with crushed tomatoes and shredded mozzarella, followed by pepperoni, thick-sliced bacon, Italian sausage and ground beef. It’s a delectable blend of crunchy, spicy and smoky that’s guaranteed to please any meat aficionado. Not for the faint of heart or stomach, consider this your go-to pizza for when you’ve got real big cravings.

Method
Note
For the dough, we recommend our Classic Pizza Dough, just be sure to set aside 3 to 4 hours for proofing before cooking.
- Preheat your oven until the stone reads 750 °F (400 °C). You can check this quickly, accurately and from a safe distance with an infrared thermometer.
- In a bowl, mix a pinch of sea salt into the crushed tomatoes. Set aside.
- Place one dough ball on your lightly floured work surface and begin pushing the air from the center out to the edge with your fingers. Stretch the dough into a 12-inch (30-centimeter) base and lay it on your countertop or lightly-floured pizza peel.
- Top the dough with 3 ounces (about 85 grams) of the tomato mixture, followed by the mozzarella, pepperoni, ham, Italian sausage and ground beef. Finish by sprinkling on the chopped bacon.
- Launch the pizza into the oven and cook for 60 to 90 seconds, turning it every 20 seconds for an even bake.
- Remove the pizza from the oven. Slice, serve and enjoy.
