How to Make a Burnt End Pizza That’ll Blow Your BBQ-Lovin’ Mind

Name: Leftover Brisket Burnt End Flatbread Pizza (Pellet Grill or Oven-Friendly)
Prep time: 15 min
Total time: 15 min
Yield: 2-4
Cuisine: American BBQ Fusion
Ingredients: 1 package of pizza or flatbread dough (store-bought or homemade); 2–3 tbsp avocado oil or spray; Granny’s BBQ Sauce (plus more for drizzling); 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese; 1/2 cup Italian quattro formaggi (or any blend of 4 cheeses); 1/4 cup diced pepper jack cheese; 1/2 cup leftover brisket burnt ends, chopped; 2–3 slices smoked bacon, cooked and chopped; 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onions; 1/4 cup sliced red bell peppers; 2 tbsp pickled red onions; 2 tbsp pickled jalapeños, chopped

Got leftover burnt ends? Don’t reheat ‘em sad in the microwave, turn ‘em into pizza gold. We’re talking crispy flatbread crust, Granny’s BBQ sauce in place of red sauce, a mountain of cheese, smoked bacon, and wait for it, burnt ends on top. This ain't your average Friday night pizza. This is backyard gourmet with BBQ street cred.

Whether you’re rocking a pellet grill, gas grill, or ceramic cooker, this recipe’s got range. We used Trader Joe’s dough for convenience (zero judgment here), but feel free to roll your own if you’re feeling fancy. The secret sauce? Literally, Granny’s BBQ sauce is the base, then it’s all about layering your fridge finds with flavor: mozzarella, quattro formaggi, pepper jack, pickled onions, jalapeños, and crispy bacon.

Fire it up at 350°F to let those toppings marry and the cheese melt just right. Drizzle more BBQ sauce over the top when it’s done, slice it up, and enjoy the sweet, smoky, spicy, cheesy chaos you just created. Leftovers? Not anymore.

Directions

Preheat your grill or oven to 350°F. (Pellet, gas, ceramic—it all works!)
Roll or stretch your pizza dough into two flatbread-style crusts.
Lightly spray both sides with avocado oil and set aside.
Spread Granny’s BBQ Sauce evenly over the top of each crust as your base.
Layer with mozzarella and quattro formaggi, followed by pepper jack cubes.
Top with red onions, red bell peppers, bacon, and burnt ends.
Place the pizzas directly on the grill grates (or a pizza stone if using an oven).
Cook for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and the crust is golden.
Finish with a BBQ drizzle and sprinkle on pickled jalapeños and pickled onions for that tangy kick.
Slice, serve, and accept the applause.
