GRILLED PULLED PORK PIZZA
Here's a recipe from About.com that is a real winner. Shred your leftover pork roast and use it to top this wonderful pizza. You can use your own recipe for pizza dough if you prefer. I have made this with a prepared Boboli crust as I am not a griller (using less of the topping ingredients) and we enjoyed it that way. I did not bake the meat on the crust so as not to dry it out, but added it afterwards with toppings and returned it to oven to melt the cheese. We really liked this.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine vinegar, ketchup, brown sugar, molasses, yellow mustard, Worcestershire, garlic, salt, red and black peppers. Bring mixture to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Allow sauce to simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Set aside to cool.
- Place a pizza stone on the lowest rack of the oven and preheat to 500 degrees F.
- Sprinkle about 2 to 3 tablespoons of yellow cornmeal on a baker's peel or baking sheet. Place the rolled out pizza dough on the prepared baker's peel or baking sheet.
- Spoon 1 cup of the cooled barbecue sauce over the pizza dough, leaving about 3/4-inch of dough uncovered around the edge. Spread the pulled pork over the sauce, then top with the onion slices and chopped bell pepper. Spread the cheeses evenly over the top. Using a quick flick of the wrist, slide the prepared pizza onto the hot pizza stone and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the crust is crisp and golden and cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve with remaining barbecue sauce, if desired.
- In a large bowl, combine the water, yeast, honey, and 1 tablespoon oil, stirring to combine. Let sit until the mixture is foamy, about 5 minutes.
- Add 1 1/2 cups of the flour and the salt, mixing by hand until it is all incorporated and the mixture is smooth. Continue adding the flour, 1/4 cup at a time, working the dough after each addition, until the dough is smooth but still slightly sticky. You may not need all of the flour. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth but still slightly tacky, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Oil a large mixing bowl with remaining olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat with the oil. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a warm place, free from drafts until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Punch dough down and turn out onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a 15-inch circle.
- Remove the pork from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature before proceeding.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a roasting pan with aluminum foil. Season the roast well on all sides with the Essence, salt, and cayenne pepper. Place a roasting rack inside the roasting pan and place the seasoned pork on the rack, fat side up. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 4 hours.
- Remove the foil from the roast and continue to bake until the roast is very tender and will pull apart easily with a fork, about 2 hours longer. Remove the pork from the oven and set aside to cool slightly. Remove any excess fat from the roast and discard. Using two forks or your hands, shred the pork into bite-sized pieces.
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Tips:
- Choose a high-quality pork shoulder roast for the pulled pork. Look for a roast with good marbling, as this will help to keep the meat moist and flavorful.
- Use a flavorful dry rub for the pork shoulder roast. This will help to create a delicious crust on the meat.
- Cook the pork shoulder roast slowly and low. This will help to tenderize the meat and make it fall apart easily.
- Once the pork shoulder roast is cooked, shred it with two forks. This will make it easy to incorporate into the pizza.
- Use a store-bought or homemade pizza dough for the base of the pizza. If using store-bought dough, let it come to room temperature before using.
- Top the pizza with the shredded pork, barbecue sauce, cheese, and any other desired toppings.
- Bake the pizza in a preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
