Pizza on the Blackstone just hits different 🤤🔥
My secret sauce is the real MVP—equal parts pizza sauce + BBQ sauce for that perfect tangy, smoky balance. Trust me… once you try it, you’ll never go back to plain BBQ 👀

And let’s talk about that sourdough pizza dough… crispy, chewy, full of flavor—and absolutely unreal on the griddle 🙌 You can grab my recipe at shesgotthecooks.com (link in bio)

Here’s how it goes down:
Dough hits a lightly oiled griddle on medium-low → flip when it’s golden & bubbly → then build your pizza.
Chicken gets cooked first with BBQ sauce, red onions on the griddle for that perfect char 🔥
Then layer it up: sauce, mozzarella, BBQ chicken, onions, parmesan, and a sprinkle of Blackstone Tuscan seasoning.
Cook until the cheese is melted, finish with an extra swirl of BBQ, slice… and Jenjoy 😎🍕

Tips for success:
• Get the dough on the griddle with light oil on medium-low
• The shape doesn’t have to be perfect
• Cook toppings on the griddle before assembling
• Some dark spots are OK—we want it cooked through (promise it’s amazing!)
• Don’t be afraid to try
Griddle pizza = crispy bottom, melty top, and flavor you just can’t beat 🔥

🥩✨ Peppercorn Sauce recipe 👇

Kettle & Fire Bone Broth sent me their new Beef Tallow and WOW — the flavor it gave these steaks was absolutely out of this world. I used it to sear a ribeye and filet mignon, then finished everything with a rich, creamy peppercorn sauce.

This is the kind of meal that makes you pause after the first bite. 🤌🔥

Peppercorn Sauce Recipe:
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1/2 shallot, minced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tbsp crushed peppercorns
• 1 cup beef stock
• 1 cup heavy cream
• Pinch of sea salt
• Chopped parsley

Directions:
Sauté the garlic and shallot in butter over medium heat for 2–3 minutes.
Add the crushed peppercorns, then pour in the beef stock.
Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and stir in the heavy cream.
Cook until the sauce reaches your desired thickness, then finish with a pinch of sea salt and chopped parsley.

The sear, the richness, the flavor… the beef tallow really stole the show!
