This American Wagyu Steak Pizza is all about bold beef flavor, crisp crust, and clean execution in a wood fired oven. Chef Tom takes a Creekstone Farms American Wagyu strip steak which is simply seasoned, seared hot in cast iron, and cooked to a perfect medium-rare before being diced and layered onto fresh pizza dough

Ingredients

  • Pizza dough
  • Creekstone Farms Wagyu strip steak
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • Cattleman’s Grill Lone Star Steak Seasoning
  • Duck fat Spray
  • Butter
  • Yellow onions, thinly sliced
  • Jacobsen Kosher Sea Salt
  • Bianco Pizza Sauce
  • Provolone cheese, shredded
  • Mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • Semolina flour, for the peel

Directions

  1. Start by seasoning the Wagyu strip steak lightly with Worcestershire sauce, followed by Lone Star Steak Seasoning. Keep it simple so the beef stays front and center.
  2. Preheat the wood fired oven inside your smoker to 450°F with cast iron set inside. Add a small amount of duck fat spray to the hot pan, then sear the steak until well browned. Cook to an internal temperature of about 125°F in the thickest part, then pull and rest briefly.
  3. In the same oven, melt butter in a skillet and add the sliced onions. Season with Jacobsen Kosher Sea Salt and cook until fully softened with light char and deep caramelization. Remove from heat once reduced and fragrant.
  4. Trim off excess fat from the rested steak and dice into small pieces so it distributes evenly on the pizza.
  5. Stretch the dough into a thin round, leaving a slight rim for the crust. Dust a pizza peel with semolina and place the dough on top, working quickly so it doesn’t stick.
  6. Spread Bianco pizza sauce evenly over the dough. Add the steak and onions first, then finish with a blend of provolone and mozzarella so the cheese browns properly.
  7. Bake in the wood fired oven at 450°F for about 6 minutes, rotating as needed. Pull when the crust is crisp, the cheese is browned, and the pizza holds its structure. Rest a couple minutes before slicing.
