Tex-Mex Chorizo Queso Fundido BBQ Pizza with Tequila Splash
Ingredients
- 1 store-bought pizza dough ball (or 1 large flatbread/naan as shortcut)
- 4 tbsp BBQ sauce
- 150 g cooking chorizo or spicy sausage finely diced
- 200 g monterey Jack or smoked cheddar cheese grated
- 1 tbsp chopped pickled jalapeños
- 2 spring onions
- 1 splash tequila or mezcal (optional but banging)
- olive oil
- 1 small handful fresh coriander and/or hot honey to garnish (optional)
Directions
1
Preheat the BBQ:
Preheat the grill to 200°c .
Grill the spring onions whole until blistered and soft, then chop finely.
2
Make the chorizo queso base:
In a small pan or skillet on the BBQ, cook the diced chorizo until crisp and the oil releases.
Add cheese, jalapeños, and charred onions.
Stir and let it melt into a gooey queso. Add a splash of tequila or mezcal and stir through just before removing from heat.
3
Raise the heat:
Crank the heat to 250°C with the lid down.
Set up the pizza stone attachment and allow to heat through.
4
Assemble the pizza:
Roll out the dough to a pizza base.
Spread the base with a layer of BBQ sauce, then spread the hot chorizo queso mix evenly over the top.
5
Grill it:
Slide the pizza onto the pizza stone.
Cook for 8–10 minutes with the lid down, rotating if needed, until the base is crisp and bubbling.
6
Finish & serve:
Sprinkle with chopped coriander and hot honey.
Slice and serve immediately—cheese pulls are mandatory.
