Cuban Style Pulled Pork Pizza

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses
While Cuban pizza crust is often thicker and softer, this version focuses on the flavor profile: savory, fatty slow-roasted pork meets sweet caramelized onions. Not classic Italian, but a winner in the comfort food category.

Instructions

1 ✓

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Mix with flour and salt. Knead 10 mins until smooth.

Tip: Kneading develops the gluten net to hold gas. If under-kneaded, dough tears.
2 ✓

Rise covered in warm spot for 1 hour.

Tip: Draft-free spots prevent temperature shock to yeast.
3 ✓

Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). Use stone if available.

Tip: Heat shock creates airy crust.
4 ✓

Roll dough. Top with sauce, pork, thin onions, and cheese.

Tip: Don't overload or the center won't cook.
5 ✓

Bake 12-15 minutes. Drizzle with oil and oregano.

Recipe FAQ

Why didn't the dough rise?
Old yeast or too hot water (killed the yeast). Warm water (max 105°F) is ideal.
