Ingredients

  • 1 ball Pizza dough (store‑bought or homemade) (≈500 g, room temperature)
  • 1 cup Tomato pizza sauce (Plain marinara works fine)
  • 2 drops The Source hot sauce (7.1 million Scoville) (Use a dropper; handle with gloves)
  • 2 whole Habanero peppers (Finely diced; wear gloves)
  • 2 whole Scotch bonnet peppers (Finely diced; wear gloves)
  • ½ cup Carolina Reaper sausage bits (Pre‑cooked, sliced into ¼‑inch pieces)
  • ½ cup Candy‑bacon bits (Crispy bacon glazed with brown sugar)
  • 2 cups Spicy cheese blend (shredded mozzarella mixed with hot sauce) (Mix 1 tsp hot sauce into cheese for extra heat)
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil (For brushing crust)
  • 5 whole Fresh basil leaves (For garnish after baking)

Instructions

  1. Stretch the dough

    Place the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface. Using your hands, gently stretch it into a 12‑inch round, leaving a slightly thicker edge for the crust.

    Time: PT10M

  2. Preheat oven and stone

    Place the pizza stone on the middle rack and preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C). Let it heat for at least 15 minutes.

    Time: PT15M

    Temperature: 475°F

  3. Prepare the ultra‑spicy sauce

    In a mixing bowl combine 1 cup tomato pizza sauce, 2 drops of The Source hot sauce, the finely diced habanero and scotch bonnet peppers. Stir well; the sauce will turn a vivid red.

    Time: PT5M

  4. Make candy‑bacon bits

    Cook ½ cup bacon strips in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Drain excess fat, sprinkle with 1 tbsp brown sugar, and toss for 30 seconds until the sugar caramelizes. Let cool, then chop into bite‑size pieces.

    Time: PT8M

  5. Cook Carolina Reaper sausage bits

    In the same skillet, add the pre‑cooked Carolina Reaper sausage bits and sauté for 5 minutes until they develop a slight crust.

    Time: PT5M

  6. Assemble the pizza

    Brush the stretched dough lightly with olive oil. Spread the ultra‑spicy sauce evenly, leaving a ½‑inch border. Sprinkle the spicy cheese blend over the sauce, then distribute candy‑bacon bits and sausage bits evenly. Add a few fresh basil leaves on top.

    Time: PT5M

  7. Bake the pizza

    Slide the assembled pizza onto the preheated stone using the pizza peel. Bake for 12 minutes, or until the crust is golden‑brown and the cheese is bubbling and slightly browned.

    Time: PT12M

    Temperature: 475°F

  8. Rest, slice, and serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it rest on a cooling rack for 5 minutes. Slice into 8 wedges, serve immediately, and keep a glass of milk nearby.

    Time: PT5M
