What’s so fun about this pizza is that the toppings can be customized (just like a hot dog) since they’re added after it comes out of the oven.
Or how about having a chili dog pizza bar this Super Bowl Sunday, and let your guests top their own pizzas with onions, jalapeños, tomatoes, bell peppers or whatever else you like?
This pizza is even good without the toppings and served as is with chili-cheesy hot dog goodness.
They’re great for making ahead of time too. Just top premade, personal-size pizza crusts with chili, cheese and sliced hot dogs, and then warm it up just before serving.
I like to brown the slices of hot dogs in a separate pan before putting them on the pizza so they taste like they do when cooked on the barbecue.
And remember to make extra for the chef.
