TODAY’S WEIRD & WILD PIZZA
Szechuan Red Braised Pork Belly Pizza
Pork belly done right is arguably the best possible meat choice out there. But what happens when you add it to a pizza?….and then take it even further by making it Szechuan style. Well this is what happens! A Szechuan Pork Belly Pizza.
And it totally rocks, this pizza not only delivers crispy but tender pork belly pieces and fresh vegetables, but the secret weapon is what ties it all together, Sweet Chile Sauce.

The Chinese Five Spice is a combination of spices that you will never forget, used sparingly it will add an immense flavor profile to your pork belly that will make you come back for more…and more…and more.

TODAY’S WEIRD & WILD TOPPINGS
| Pork Belly | Bok Choy | Red Peppers | Red Onion | Mozzarella Cheese | Sweet Chile Sauce |

Crispy, tender, sticky, sweet and spicy, this pork is so darn delicious, the Szechuan sauce gives this pork its red color.

Bok Choy has been cultivated in China for more than 5000 years.
Red bell peppers are green bell peppers that have been left on the vine to ripen.
Red onions contain a higher amount of antioxidant compounds than white onions.

Sweet Chile Sauce is unconventional as a pizza sauce I agree, but somehow it really works!
