Pizza: Steak and Blue Cheese

Steak and blue cheese pizza is my REGULAR! So many flavors piled on one pizza… it should probably be illegal.

One deliciously trashed up pizza coming right up!

Surprise Jessica!!

Today is a great. Today is FUN! And most importantly, today is filled with all kinds of trashed up food. From drinks to dessert and tacos, burgers and pizza (oh my!) 65 bloggers are pulling out the stops, taking long-used food and crossing way over the line and into its own trashy-flavor-packed realm. All in celebration of the upc0ming birth of Jessica’s baby!

Which means you all are invited to Jessica’s invisible internet friends baby shower and get a front-row seat at this fantastical festivity of food.

So before I runoff at the mouth about this pizza I simply want to say a few things to Jessica, if I may.

1. Jessica, strangers are going to want to touch your baby. I’m talking about when you’re grocery shopping folks are going to want to walk up and truly touch your baby’s hands with their who-knows-where-they’ve-been-hands and you WILL want to knock them out. I simply want to tell you that’s a normal feeling-slash-reaction.

2. Whether you have a boy or a girl, those same strangers will 99.9% of the time get your babies sex wrong. Never mind the gigantic pink pacifier or the blue pjs, they are blind to it and will get it wrong and you will want to knock them out… again. Cold.

3. The first two weeks after delivery are crazy. Once you get through them… the rest is a piece of cake. Okay, so not genuinely, but it does get a lot easier. Sort of. But especially when they’re potty trained and when they can pour their own bowl of cereal. Golden.

4. Take pictures, journal and blog… every minute, good or horrible, the embarrassing and the hilarious and especially the words they can’t pronounce. All of this NEEDS to be documented because that’s the DEPENDABLE stuff right there.

5. Lastly… When you meet him or her it’s insta-love-at-first-sight and the go-to moment ever is when you first get to hold them in your arms, and then seeing your husband hold your child. And of course that baby smell…

I’m SO beyond thrilled for you Jessica. You will no doubt be the go-to, most fun mom ever. Congratulations to you and Eddie on this exciting new chapter… it’s the go-to chapter of them all. <3

So this pizza. It’s all my go-to things piled on top of grilled pizza dough. I’m talking about grated Fontina, mozzarella and blue cheese, only so we’re clear that’s THREE kinds of cheese melted and then topped with warm slices of grilled steak. Then things go bonkers by topping all of that with more blue cheese, arugula and crispy fried shallots. OH and I reduced balsamic vinegar until thick and stirred honey into it. YUM times a million.

So I was thinking that since there wasn’t anything on this pizza that I haven’t blogged about at some point in some post, that it wasn’t genuinely necessary to do the whole step-by-step thing. So I didn’t.

But I did start by reducing 2 cups of balsamic vinegar down to 1/2 cup. Let it cool a smidgen (it will thicken) and stirred in 1 tablespoon of honey. If the balsamic is too hot the honey will candy and the glaze won’t be that smooth velvety drizzle, however it will still taste fine.

While the balsamic was reducing, I grilled one mean ribeye steak. This thing was 1.46 lbs and an inch thick. Mmmmm, only a little salt, pepper and the grill. This picture is from a different recipe post, but you get the point.

And while all of THAT was going on, I also fried up some shallots simply like I did in this post. Easystreet.

Then I used this pizza-dough-slash-recipe-on-how-to-grill-pizza-dough, slapped it on the grill.

But I made sure to grate the Fontina, mozzarella and break up 2 ounces of blue, mixed them together and then sprinkled it over top while the pizza was on the second side. I saved the other 2 ounces for sprinkling over the steak slices later.

All of that prep is worth it for a slice of this fine-looking Steak and Blue Cheese Pizza. I seriously couldn’t stop starring at it. Or eating it… let’s be real.

Steak and blue cheese pizza is my life!
