Had a brisket fail last weekend , so lookin for a way to use it up . Had some dough in the fridge . Thought I'd try a pizza .
Came out pretty good . Taste was like a cheese steak . The fermented dough makes a nice thin crisp crust . This was good , but would have been great with a softer / thicker crust . Here's what I did .
Dough out of fridge warming up a bit .

Cut a few slices of brisket and chop it up

Spread the dough after it relaxes

No sauce , provolone cheese on the bottom .

Add some brisket

I put some St. Louis pizza cheese on top . It's good stuff ,
but it tends to get dark .
I start this on the stove top . To heat the cast iron , and start the bottom cooking .

The thin crust is great for pepperoni or sausage . This was good like this , but softer would have been great .
Thinking I could have just cooked the dough thru on the stove top .
The grilled onions , peppers and the provolone would have been good by itself .
The brisket reminded me of bacon . Maybe it was the smokey flavor .
I did put some Sweet baby Ray's on one slice . Good , but I liked it better without .
I will make this again with a few tweaks , but it really tasted like a cheese steak .

Thanks for lookin .

I'd be all over that Rich, look delicious! I can never get thin crust, always kind of thick. I was reading on another thread the trick to getting a thin crust is to keep it in the fridge for a couple of days and knock it down after the first day. I like thick crust, someone on my team like thin, go figure. Like, RAY

Love BBQ pizza, I usually do a blend of traditional pizza sauce with SBR--always turns out good no matter the BBQ meat!

Ray , that dough was in the fridge for 5 days . I let rise and punch down one time . Then divide it up coat with olive oil bag it up and into the fridge . Makes great pizza . If I want the crust thicker I use it the same day , no ferment .

Looking good to me!
Thanks Tander

Looks good Chop! Tasty save!

Thanks Bear . I love thin crust pizza . Just thinking with the cheese steak type toppings thicker would be pretty good .
