Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cover two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a casserole dish over medium-high heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and sear the pork tenderloin on all sides, about 7-8 minutes in total. Season with salt and pepper generously.
- Add Dr. Pepper, BBQ sauce, paprika, garlic and onion powder and mix. Add enough water to almost cover the pork and bring to a boil. Cover, place in the oven and cook for 3 hours, basting occasionally. Remove the meat from the casserole, pull apart and chop. Set aside.
- On a floured work surface, roll down the pizza dough and place on the baking sheets. Sprinkle with a thin stream of olive oil and spread well. Sprinkle with garlic salt to taste.
- Spread 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce on each pizza and divide half of the cheese.
- Add the pulled pork followed by onions, bacon pieces and remaining cheese. Pepper to taste and place in the oven. Cook for 12 to 15 minutes or until crust is cooked and cheese golden !
