- 1 round of pizza dough (this can be store-bought or homemade - I made mine in my bread machine)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large or 2 medium heirloom tomatoes, sliced thinly
- 1 small red onion, sliced into thin half rings
- 5 slices fully cooked bacon, crumbled
- ⅔ cup diced smoked ham
- 1 cup fresh corn off the cob - about 1 cob's worth
- 1 cup grated Asiago cheese
- 1 cup crumbled blue cheese
- For serving: hot honey
Make sure your pizza dough is at room temperature or slightly warm. Preheat your grill to 500°F or high heat.
Pour the olive oil into a cast iron skillet. Rotate the skillet to fully cover the bottom of the skillet. Place the round of pizza dough in the pan and press lightly to cover the bottom of the skillet; cover with plastic wrap while you prepare the toppings (e.g. slice the tomatoes and onions, cook/cut bacon and ham, remove corn from the cob, and grate/crumble the cheeses).
Remove the plastic wrap from the cast iron skillet and, using your fingers, gently press into the dough to make little divots in the dough and extend the dough at least 1 ½ inches up the side of the skillet. Add the thinly sliced tomato to the base. Add the onion, bacon and ham, corn (no need to fully break apart all of it), and cheeses.
Grill the pizza, covered, on the preheated grill for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is crisp and the cheese is perfectly melted.Allow the pizza to cool another 10-15 minutes before slicing it into 8 slices and serving it with hot honey.
