Instructions
The Pizza
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Coat lightly with the garlic oil.
  4. 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.
  5. Bake in a standard oven at 450 degrees for roughly 15 minutes.
  6. Remove and slice.
  7. This pizza was out of this world. It was rich and delicious. Totally fitting for Jack Falcone!
Caramelized Onions
  1. 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.
  2. Slice a large onion into half rings and place into the pan with a touch of salt and pepper.
  3. Stir the onions and allow to caramelize. Cook until the onions turn a golden to dark brown, roughly 25 minutes.
  4. 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.
  5. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Sauteed Mushrooms
  1. Add the mushrooms.
  2. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are tender and just start to brown, about 12 minutes.
  3. Add the broth bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, roughly 12 minutes.
  4. Set aside and keep warm.
Garlic Oil
  1. In a small pan heat 1 cup of extra virgin olive oil and 5-6 cloves of garlic.
  2. Bring to a boil and then reduce and simmer. When the garlic is slightly browned remove it and you have a tasty garlic oil.
  3. Roughly 5 minutes.
