Ingredients

• 1 pound pizza dough
• 1/2 cup marinara sauce
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup cooked ground beef
• 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
• 1/4 cup diced red onion
• 1/4 cup sliced pickles
• 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
• 1/4 cup shredded lettuce
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 1/4 cup mustard

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). This high temperature will help achieve the perfect crispiness for your New York-style pizza crust.

Step 2: Roll Out the Dough

Dust a clean surface with flour and roll out the pizza dough into a round shape. Aim for a thickness of about 1/8 inch. If you prefer a thicker crust, adjust the thickness accordingly.

Step 3: Prepare the Toppings

In a small bowl, mix the ketchup and mustard together to create a sauce. Set aside. Prepare the ground beef and bacon by cooking them until they are fully cooked and crispy. Crumble the bacon into small pieces. Dice the red onion and tomatoes, and slice the pickles. Shred the lettuce and set all the toppings aside.

Step 4: Assemble the Pizza

Place the rolled-out dough onto a greased baking sheet or pizza stone. Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Add the cooked ground beef and crumbled bacon on top of the cheese. Scatter the diced red onion, sliced pickles, and diced tomatoes over the meat.

Step 5: Bake the Pizza

Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

Once the pizza is out of the oven, sprinkle the shredded lettuce over the top. Drizzle the ketchup and mustard sauce over the pizza, or serve it on the side for dipping. Slice the pizza into wedges and serve hot.
