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 !
