Roadhouse Pizza
Wooooo-weeee! It’s almost Friday, y’all! I’m so ready for the weekend!
My family kinda fell off the Friday night pizza night train when we moved to Phoenix …. it’s just too darn hot to be having that oven on! Everyone once in awhile, we (by we, I mean I) drudge through and give into our craving. I wanted something a little bit different for our pizza on this occasion. So I came up with the Roadhouse Pizza – it’s topped with BBQ sauce and a combination of yummy ingredients like ground beef, bacon, jalapenos, tomatoes, onion and cheese! I wasn’t really sure what to call this pizza, but for some reason, the word “roadhouse” stuck out in my mind – so that’s what we’ll call it. Mmm-kay? I have no rhyme nor reason to what I do, what can I say?!

Looks delicious! We love pizza too and this is one we haven't tried. Thanks for sharing at Mix it up Monday 🙂
That looks great! Besides the red onions, totally doable in my house. Well, and besides the actually turning on of the oven. No Central Air here, and our "Behemoth" window unit cannot compete with the oven. 😀
Pinned it to try later! It looks sooooo good! This may sound silly but I love the white paper the slice is sitting on… where did you get that or what kind of paper is that?
I can't resist bacon on a pizza. My fav is chicken, bacon, roasted peppers. Your pizza is LOADED with toppings! You can call it whatever you want. It'll still be great! Thanks for linking!
Looks great!
Your pizza looks good. Love all the different toppings! Thank you for linking up with Foodie Friends Friday! Please come back this week for another party!
Oooh that looks awesome. Homemade pizza is one thing I have never tried to cook before. I'll have to try this
I love the roadhouse, very similar to how we like ours but that summer breeze sounds good as well. We love our pizza. Thanks for linking up at Swap N Share Sunday

Yum…all of my favorite flavors 🙂
I agree, the Roadhouse pizza sounds good. I'll try that combination next time I make pizza. My most recent adventure was a 'taco' pizza with black beans and corn and a bit of chorizo.
