Barbecue-Ranch Chicken Pizza

Delicious and unpretentious, this homemade pizza combines bbq and ranch for a tangy, creamy sauce and all the toppings your heart desires.

I’m a firm believer that pizza toppings shouldn’t be measured. Pizza is a beautiful canvas of delicious creativity. Every pizza should be a bit of a Jackson Pollock creation: a little of this scattered here, and a little of that scattered there. Here’s how I top my barbeque chicken pizzas. Use my ingredients as guidelines and have fun with it—the way the pizza gods intended. 

What to Notice

Look for a deeply golden crust, bubbling cheese, and sauce that settles into the edges rather than sitting heavily on top. The pizza should smell toasted, creamy, and just a little sweet from the tomatoes.
