Bacon and Blue Cheese Pizza
Bacon is smoky where blue cheese is tangy, and a shared savory and rich streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Smoky, crispy bacon strips bring an unmistakable crunch and rich, salty depth to pizza. Bold, pungent blue cheese crumbles add an unmistakable tangy depth and creamy richness to pizza. On a Brown Butter-Sage Sauce base, the sauce's nutty and toasty character ties the two together.
