Pineapple and Bacon Pizza

Juicy, tangy-sweet pineapple chunks bring tropical brightness and a controversial charm. Smoky, crispy bacon strips bring an unmistakable crunch and rich, salty depth to pizza. On a San Marzano Red Sauce base, the sauce's sweet and bright acidity character ties the two together.
