BBQ Chicken Pizza

Wrench_H · Dec 20, 2010

Pizzas are one of my favorite things to cook, and BBQ chicken is my favorite of them to make. I know we all have different ways of making them, but here is mine.

Toppings - Smoked chicken chopped finely with some bbq sauce added, cheddar and pepperjack cheese, cilantro, and bacon.

I get my dough from a local pizza shop and role it out as thin as possible.

Once I get a nice crisp char on one side, I flip and spread bbq sauce all over it.

Then I add a thick layer of chicken.

Lastly I put the cheese, cilantro, and bacon and cook until its all melted and the bottom is crispy.

Here is a pepperoni, sausage, mushroom, and mozzarella that I made with it.

This is usually a stand around the grill with firends drinking beer kind of meal, so its hard to take too many pictures without getting made fun of :doh:. Thanks for looking.

That looks mighty tasty!!! I have an idea for you, if you haven't tried it yet. Buffalo chicken pizza. I don't make pizzas but we used to get this at a place till they closed. Top your crust with ranch dressing, coat your chicken in a wing sauce, put that on and then top with cheese. Let me know if you make it and how it comes out.

I'm a big fan of Buffalo chicken pizza too. I actually tried a version of this recently with bleu cheese instead of ranch. Something just wasn't right with it. I'm not sure what it was, but I'm certainly planning to try again.

I would definately hit those

I think the ranch will compliment the chicken better than blue cheese.

So that's just a gas grill huh? what temp do you run it at and do you leave it open or closed while it cooks? I've been wanting to make a pizza at home but don't have a stone and never thought of the grill.

Looking good, I need to make pizza soon.

Yep this is done on my old gas grill. If I'm doing a lot of them I use coals, but I hate to burn so many for 20 minutes of cook time. The front burners on my gasser no longer work, so this works perfect on it. Normally I would turn one side on high and one on low. Let it sit on high, and then flip to the low side while you let everything melt and then back to high to crisp up the bottom. I call this a pizza, but truthfully it is more like a flatbread than a pizza. The dough is so thin that it doesn't matter if it is open or closed as long as you can get the cheese melted which happens much faster closed.

Those are some really tasty looking pizzas! Nice work! :thumb: I love the little bit of char and the super thin crust.

Those are some great looking pizzas! You have given me some good inspiration. Not quite sure how I will get it on the rotisserie, though. Ah, could be a good Rib-o-Lator moment, but those would be some weird lookin' pies.

One suggestion if you haven't tried it: spaghetti sauce, feta cheese, oregano (of course), and then whatever else like garlic, onions, mushrooms, maybe olives or spinach or sausage. I used to make those in the toaster oven using tortillas as the crust. Super easy and mmm...yummy.

chambersuac · Dec 21, 2010

oh man, those look excellent.

Zak · Dec 21, 2010

Damn that does look good!! I think instead of making chili with the brisket point in the fridge i might go the pizza route w/a sweet bbq sauce. BBQ brisket pizza, insert Homer drooling here!

Back in my pre-child days, we used to have folks over, and have 15-20 ingredients and let everyone make whatever they wanted. Some pretty tasty combinations used to come out sometimes. Yours sounds great. I love some feta cheese.
