This is our 3rd place winner of the first ever Great Range Bison recipe contest. We can’t get enough of this tasty pizza recipe! Our guest judge, Felicia from The Starving Chef loves it too and had this to say about it:
It’s best to move quickly when making this pizza, especially if grilling outdoors – the crust burns easily, so keep an eye on your temp too! But if you can move quickly enough, you are certainly in for a delicious bison pizza!

Recipe Notes
What Laura had to say about her recipe:
This pizza is delicious and you can make it with a store-bought dough or your own pizza dough recipe. When you are stretching the dough, you want the crust to be on the thinner side. Do not overfill the toppings on the pizza crust.
