Kalua Pork Pizza

kalua pork pizza

This Kalua Pork Pizza features shredded Smoky Slow Cooked Kalua Pork, pineapple, and teriyaki sauce. Pineapple on pizza is pretty controversial, but I really enjoy the flavor. If pineapple pizza isn’t your favorite, then just leave that off and enjoy a teriyaki Kalua pork pizza. Either way will be delicious.

What Pizza Dough Do I Use?

I have a really easy pizza dough recipe that I have made literally hundreds of times. The recipe makes enough for three pizzas, so you could either make three pizzas or freeze the remaining dough for another time. When freezing pizza dough, portion it to the size of one pizza and form into a ball. Set it out on an oiled counter to defrost and rise.

What is Kalua Pork?

Smoky slow cooker Kalua pork is a deliciously smoky slow cooked shredded pork recipe. It’s seriously the best and easiest to make shredded pork. Check out the recipe to see all the details. It makes a lot, so plan on making a lot of dinners with pork.

What Do I Need To Make This?

I use my favorite 13 inch nonstick pizza pans for pizzas every time. I have tried other methods of baking pizza, but these pans have been the best. I actually own 6 of them because we like to have pizza parties and make a ton of pizza. Even though they are nonstick, I like to give them a light spray with nonstick cooking spray. It just helps them to come off the pan really easily. After baking I transfer them to a flexible cutting mat and cut them with a pizza chopper.
