“Pizza makes anything possible.”
— Henry Rollins
How many of you think Henry Rollins is dope? Mountain Mad Radd finds him super fascinating. We often listen to Rollins’ performances on our backcountry drives and recommend him to our adventurous readers who like to listen to far-out experiences. His entertaining standup, advice, and pearls of wisdom range anywhere from “Scar tissue is stronger than regular tissue. Realize the strength, move on.” to “Pizza makes anything possible”, tackling profound topics of life to pizza toppings, going from serious to lighthearted.
Following the advice of the brilliant Rollins, we set out to make our pizza – not that we needed a whole lot of inspiration and persuasion. Much like you, we love Pizza, and much like any proper and self-respecting American we also love cheeseburgers, so logic dictates that we combine the two in today’s far-out recipe with bison meat, because we like to practice our right to stuff our faces. As part of successful adulting, we balance our daily grub with a daily groove in the gym, a daily jaunt in the wilderness, or a daily choice of leaner meats, a task best fulfilled by bison meat, especially one from an all-natural, native grass-fed, and pastured raised ranch that is super lean and super healthful.
Bison meat is not the only secret ingredient in today’s pizza. Dill pickles and candied bacon, two seemingly odd and unconnected ingredients, become quite familiar and connected in the recipe for the ultimate eating experience. The two go together like bathtubs & toasters…eh…let’s try that again. Dill pickles and candied bacon in this pizza go together like sugar & spice, Frodo & Sam, G’day & Mate, Homer & Marge. You get the idea.
To replicate this divine creation you will need grass-fed bison meat which is low fat, low calorie, high protein, and high in omega-3 fatty acids, iron, and selenium. It is also quite high in those B vitamins that make us agile and energetic, and unlike some of nature’s medicinal gifs, it does not taste one way or the other. There is no “gamey” flavor and can be likened to delicate and sweeter beef.
