This homemade BBQ Brisket Pizza is one of those must haves when you cook a big brisket and have a bunch of leftovers. In my opinion, it is a touch better with leftovers from the point, but it is just as delicious with the flat part of the brisket. This BBQ brisket pizza is super easy to make and the whole family loves it, including the little ones!
Homemade BBQ Brisket Pizza Ingredients
- 1 Package – Delallo Pizza Dough Kit (Preferred)
- Brisket (Point, Flat or mix of the two)
- Sweet Baby Rays BBQ Sauce (Or your favorite sauce)
- Red Onion, Sliced
- Pizza Cheese, Shredded
- Parchment Paper or Cornmeal
How to Setup the Big Green Egg for BBQ Brisket Pizza
Get the Big Green Egg dialed in right around 500-600 degrees. Pizza is cooked indirect with the plate setter inserted with the feet facing upward. On top of the plate setter should be your grate followed by pizza stone.
How to Prepare BBQ Brisket Pizza for the Big Green Egg
Start out by following the Delallo Pizza Dough Kit directions in which you’ll want to let the dough set out and rise for a good 45 minutes prior to starting.
Once the Pizza dough is ready, spread some flour on a baking mat creating a nice even coat.
Flatten 1/4 of the dough on the baking mat and sprinkle lightly with flour until the dough is workable and not super sticky.
With a roller, roll the dough out in which we prefer the crust to be super thin. Shape as needed, but we aren’t picky and the dough usually winds up more square than round.
Once the dough is spread out and made into a thin crust, cut some parchment paper to size and place the dough on the parchment paper.
Trim the parchment paper so there isn’t a bunch of extra hanging off the sides. Cornmeal works to prevent the dough from sticking as well, but parchment paper is just easier, in my opinion.
From here, the BBQ brisket pizza can be assembled. Start out by spreading a thin layer of your favorite BBQ sauce in which we prefer Sweet Baby Ray’s or Famous Dave’s sauce.
Spread and even amount of brisket across the top of the pizza.
Followed by sliced red onion.
Finish the BBQ brisket pizza by topping it off with your favorite cheese in which we like to use a pizza blend.
How to Make Homemade BBQ Brisket Pizza on the Big Green Egg
From here, the Big Green Egg should be dialed in somewhere between 500 and 600 degrees. Once it is heated up, slide the pizza and the parchment paper on to the pizza stone and close the lid.
After 2-3 minutes go by the dough should be done to the point that it will no longer stick to the peel. Scoop the pizza up, turn it 45 degrees all while removing the parchment paper.
Once the parchment paper is removed it should only take another 2-3 minutes. Start checking the underside of the BBQ brisket pizza to ensure it isn’t burning. Once the underside is a nice toasted tan color, the pizza is ready to be removed.
Bring the pizza in and place it on a cutting board. Create slices however you prefer to and enjoy!

Hi Ben! Found you on YouTube.. Great site.
I LOVE brisket and love pizza..together? Yummm.. I'm big into kitchen experiments but hadn't thought about using a pizza stone on the BBQ. Do you think I can use one on any type of barbecue unit?
Keep up the great work!

Yea, you should be able to use any kind of grill. Just make sure you let the pizza stone warm up and cool down with the grill so it doesn't crack.
