BBQ Brisket Pizza

My grandmother, born and raised in Alabama, made the best southern food while I was growing up.  While she was living in East Chicago, she owned a small restaurant that served biscuits and gravy, chicken & dumplin's, SOS, BBQ, & the like.  Many of these things that I miss being gluten-free.  But I do love me some southern food.  I found a gem for southern food in Denver:  Whole Foods in Denver [Hampden & Tamarac].  I was introduced to the glorious buffet of smoked meats by the GM, Louis Karp, there.  Smoked brisket, house made sausage, turkey, you name it.  I had to have some today.  You would not believe by the way that I am speaking to you that I typically eat vegetarian for most meals, but nothing can break me like BBQ.  The smokey, sweet, savory heaven...

I picked some up for dinner tonight.  Yes, a small taste of everything that they have.  I don't get down there often so I figured that I could freeze what we don't eat.

We made a BBQ Brisket Pizza.  So delicious!  The photo does not do it justice partially because of the camera and partially because we didn't wait to eat the pizza, sorry.  One of these days I will treat myself to a digital SLR so I can treat you to better pictures.
