Instructions

The Pizza

  • Preheat your oven to 450 degrees or use a kettle pizza. I am using the kettle pizza as I can heat it up to 750 degrees plus and have pizzas ready in about 4 minutes. However, if you are using your oven at 450 degrees it will take roughly 15 minutes per pie.
  • Dust a pizza peel or pizza pan with fine cornmeal. Then toss your pizza dough to a size that fits your pizza pan/pizza stone.
  • Coat lightly with the garlic oil.
  • Then sprinkle the crust with the mozzarella cheese. Then top with the caramelized onions, mushrooms and bacon. Finally drop the crumbled goat cheese over the top.
  • Bake in a standard oven at 450 degrees for roughly 15 minutes.
  • Remove and slice.
  • This pizza was out of this world. It was rich and delicious. Totally fitting for Jack Falcone!

Caramelized Onions

  • The caramelized onions take the longest time. However, they are pretty simple. Add 3tbs of vegetable oil and 3 tbs of butter to a large pan over medium/high heat.
  • Slice a large onion into half rings and place into the pan with a touch of salt and pepper.
  • Stir the onions and allow to caramelize. Cook until the onions turn a golden to dark brown, roughly 25 minutes.
  • If the onions start to stick while you are caramelizing them, add a tbs of water to deglaze. You may have to do this multiple times during the cooking process.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.

Sauteed Mushrooms

  • Add the mushrooms.
  • Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are tender and just start to brown, about 12 minutes.
  • Add the broth bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, roughly 12 minutes.
  • Set aside and keep warm.

Garlic Oil

  • In a small pan heat 1 cup of extra virgin olive oil and 5-6 cloves of garlic.
  • Bring to a boil and then reduce and simmer. When the garlic is slightly browned remove it and you have a tasty garlic oil.
  • Roughly 5 minutes.
