Ingredients

How to make it

  • Dough:
  • dissolve yeast in water.
  • Stir in the sugar, salt, water and shortening.
  • Blend in 2 3/4 cups to 3 cups flour or enough to make a stiff dough.
  • Knead on a floured surface until smooth and elastic.
  • Cover and let rise double in a warm place.
  • Prepare meat mixture.
  • Mix all meat mixture ingredients together.
  • You will need to divde into about 12 portion or about 1/3 cup for each pizza
  • Punch down dough and divide into 12 pieces.
  • Cover and let sit 15 minutes, 2 inches aprt on floured surface
  • Roll out each piece to a 7 or 8 inch circle
  • Place circles on a cookie or baking sheet a few inches aprt.
  • Spread each with 1/3 of the meat mixture.
  • Bake first in a 500F or very hot oven about 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Then broil 5 inches from top heat another 5 to 6 minutes or meat is light brown.
  • Bake and broil all in this manner.
  • Cool and store leftovers refrigerated covered.
  • These freeze extremely well.
  • Thawing is not necessary, just heat under the broiler.
  • Note: 1/3 cup of the filling will not make a heavy laden pizza but I like it that way.
  • You may also like a spicey sauce and so season the meat filling to taste.
  • This can easily be made on the grilled for gtilled pizza !
