MEATY STUFFED PIZZA

Steps:

• Set up grill for direct cooking over medium heat. Oil grate when ready to start cooking.

• In a large mixing bowl, combine pizza crust mixes, Italian seasoning, and hot water. Stir about 20 times until a ball forms. Split ball in half and cover each with plastic wrap; set aside.
• For the filling:
• In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, add the oil and cook ground beef and sausage, stirring frequently to break up clumps. Cook until no longer pink but not totally cooked through, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in mushrooms, olives, cheese and 1 cup of the marinara sauce; set aside.
• Unwrap dough and put onto 2 parchment lined baking sheets sprinkled with cornmeal. Press out into 2 (12-inch) circles about 1/4-thick; pinch together any holes. Spoon the meat mixture into center of each dough round. Slide the second dough circle off the parchment to top the meat mixture. Crimp the edges together. Gently pat entire surface of pizza until flat. Slide pizza onto hot oiled grill. Cook, covered, for about 5 to 6 minutes per side.

BREAD PIZZA STUFFED WITH MEAT AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350°F. Split the bread lengthwise, then cut it in half again and hollow out some of the soft insides of the bread. Lightly crisp the bread in the oven, 10 minutes. Remove the bread and switch the broiler on.
• Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, twice around the pan, and the mushrooms. Cook the mushrooms until dark and tender, 7 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Heat a second medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining tablespoon of EVOO. When the EVOO smokes, add the pancetta or bacon and render the fat for a minute or so, then add the ground beef and break it up into an even layer. Deeply brown and caramelize the meat, 5 minutes. Add the onions and carrots and season with lots of coarse pepper, some salt, the Worcestershire, and the ground allspice, then cook for 10 minutes more, stirring frequently. Add the wine and scrape up all the brown bits. Add the stock to loosen up the mixture a little, then add the tomatoes and parsley and heat through, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Season the cooked mushrooms with salt and pepper. Fill the toasted breads with equal amounts of mushrooms, then top them with equal amounts of the meat sauce. Cover the meat sauce with a layer of mozzarella and a sprinkle of Parmigiano or Romano cheese. Broil the pizzas to melt the cheese. Shred or tear the basil and top each pizza liberally with it, then serve (with a fork and knife).
