    Slowly add the almond flour mixture to the cheese mixture. Using an electric mixer or food processor, stir until you have a uniform dough. Don’t be surprised if dough goes flying if you are using the mixer! This can happen, but this is an easy way to combine the mixtures in order to make the best fat head dough. If you don’t have an electric mixer or food processor, I recommend kneading the dough by hand until it comes together. This is a messy and time-consuming process, but the end result is the same - fat head pizza.

Low Carb BBQ Pulled Pork Pizza

This is a great way to use up leftover pulled pork. Keto BBQ pulled pork pizza starts with my homemade low carb BBQ sauce on fathead pizza dough. Next, layers of pizza cheese, smoked pulled pork, red onion, and green onion are placed on top of the dough. Finally the pizza is topped with crumbled blue cheese and cilantro.

Pulled pork is one of my favorite proteins to meal prep. It is inexpensive and easy to cook up. It also yields a lot of meat which I can use in various recipes throughout the week. This keto BBQ pulled pork pizza is always on the menu when I’m cooking up some pulled pork.

Keto BBQ Sauce

Besides the pulled pork, the other star to this keto pizza is the homemade low carb BBQ sauce. This sauce is sweet and tangy and works perfectly on this pizza in place of red sauce. Two tablespoons of sauce is all you need to cover on batch of fathead pizza crust.

If you don’t want to make your own BBQ sauce, you can buy a store bought low sugar BBQ Sauce. The two brands of BBQ sauce that I recommend are by Lillie’s Q and Primal Kitchen’s.

Keto Pizza Crust

My favorite keto pizza crust is from fat head dough. This recipe includes mozzarella cheese, almond flour, egg, baking powder and xanthan gum. The crust puffs up like regular pizza dough and creates a chewy texture in the middle and a crispy outer crust.

Option to Grill Pizza

I usually bake my keto pizza in the oven; however, this low carb pizza is excellent grilled on the BBQ. It already has smoky flavor from the pulled pork add that flavor to the crust enhance the BBQ experience. I have full directions on how to grill a keto pizza on the grill in this post here. It makes the perfect summertime dinner.

Optional Pizza Topping Variations

Although this pizza is tasty on its own, consider these other topping options for this keto pizza.

  • jalapeno
  • bell pepper

  • tomato
  • garlic
