Sizzling Pizza Havens in Hawaii
Crank up the heat with this bold take on a Hawaiian pizza, ditching the ham for crispy bacon and giving it a zesty twist with jalapeños! Here's a finger-lickin' good recipe for you to rock your Baking Steel like a pro.
Yield: 1 scrumptious 12-inch pizzaDifficulty: Medium snoozefestTotal Time: 1 hour (including preheating)Active Time: 15 scorching minutes
Ingredients
- A ball of fresh, lively pizza dough— whether homemade or store-bought, it'll rise and shine!
- A dusting of flour to unleash the dough's potential
- 1/4 cup of zippy tomato sauce
- 4 oz of fresh, funky mozzarella, torn into tantalizing bites
- 4 oz of sultry fontina, shredded for maximum flavor
- 1 cup of diced pineapple or oddly-shaped pineapple rings— use whatever's easiest to hand
- 1 baby jalapeño, thinly sliced and ready to sizzle
- 3 bacon strips, raw and ready to roll
Instructions
- Preheat your Baking Steel to 500 degrees for 45 minutes. Island time, am I right?
- Lay your dough onto a lightly floured surface, stretching it into a 12-inch circle (or oblong if you're feeling rebellious).
- Heat your oven to Broil like a boss.
- Spread the tomato sauce calmly across the dough, leaving about an inch of space for the crust around the edges.
- Shower the cheese lovingly over the sauce, making sure everything is dressed for success.
- Arrange the pineapple, jalapeños, and raw bacon on top, among the cheesy goodness.
- On a generously floured pizza peel, you'll launch your pie onto the Baking Steel and broil it for 2 minutes.
- Oh, what a twist! After 2 minutes, open the oven and rotate the pizza 180 degrees for even browning.
- Don't want your cheese to become a charcoal bun? Turn off the broiler and crank the heat to high, baking another 1 to 2 minutes until that cheese looks glorious and golden.
- Slide the pizza off the peel and cut it up to share with friends, family, or tattooed squirrels.

Pro Tips:
- Keep an eye on your toppings during the final minutes of baking to ensure they don't get all scorched and messy.
