MeatFerno Pizza

At my request, my wife made a meat-lovers pan pizza with kick. She made it inside our 15" Lodge cast-iron skillet.
 
For the crust, Divella Farina Tipo "00" flour - this is a seriously good flour for making pizza as well as pasta.
 
On top of the crust, my wife's homemade marinara sauce.
 
For the meat, first 500g (a bit more than a pound) of fried ground beef, then a couple of our own homemade maple-sage breakfast sausages chopped up, and finally a thick layer of pepperoni salami slices.
 
So then she starts laying down the heat and I was not supervising at this point so I got a surprise when I started eating. One carolina reaper and one chocolate scotch bonnet from our stash in the freezer (our last summer's crop), and then a healthy slathering of pureed jalapeno that we had leftover from sausage making. According to her, she cut the reaper and bonnet into microslivers and evenly distributed them. - Most of the pizza was "hot", and I have a high tolerance to heat, but one of the bites I took caused me to momentarily begin practicing religion and calling dieties and their sons out by name.
 
Finally, a nice layer of grated mozzarella and parmesan.

Looks good.

I am generally opposed to ground beef on pizza but I would hit that.
 
I too.
 
Dislike ground beef.
 
On pizza.
 
Its not bacon.
 
Or sausage.
 
Its out of its environment.
 
It belongs on cheeseburger.
 
In a taco.
 
Or meatloaf world.
 
Then again.
 
 
 
Dude and his wife.
 
Made a helluva'.
 
Come to Jesus Pizza.
 
Save me a slice.
 
Don't worry.
 
We are proper heretics.
 
We also put beans in chili.
 
It's not because of cost, it's just a matter of taste.
 
There are good folks here in this forum, though.
 
Lots of good folks.
 
Show us your MeatFerno pizza!
 
Heretics are often the only interesting people you will meet. ;)

My objection to ground beef on pizza isn't some rules based ideal. I simply have never had a pizza with ground beef on it, that tasted better for having it as a topping.
