Bee Sting Pizza

Cornholio

We did cast iron pizzas here last night. The kids made a cheese pizza and I made a Bee Sting pie for us.

450-500 raised indirect for ~14 minutes

Cheater dough from a local pizzeria
Sauce

Mozzarella
Spicy Soppressata
Serrano peppers

Added after pulling from the egg:

Basil leaves
Chili oil
Honey

The sweetness of the honey blends really well with the spicy ingredients.

That sounds really good to me.  Never heard of it, but I like it!

We’ve had a version of it a few times at a pizza place in Mammoth, CA (Eastern Sierras) so I figured I’d give it a go and glad I did. Wife wants me to make another one today. 

I definitely recommend it if you like sweet and spicy combos.

I’m familiar with the Mammoth area, and there’s a good chance I’ve been to that pizza place.

The pie reminds me of one I do with nduja, blue cheese, and hot honey.  It’s got that same spicy/sweet vibe.  Give it a try if you can find some decent nduja.

Interesting name, good for a menu. That term would make me think the pizza is spicy hot with immediate hit and quick cool off with honey tones.

I've cheated on the dough before and who cares?  If the pizza is amazing?
