- 2 cups flour
- 1 tsp. House of BBQ Experts California Spice Mix and Rub
- ¾ cup water (split into 3 x ¼ cup portions)
Directions:
- Pour ¼ cup warm water into a bowl, then add the yeast and Kansas dry rub. Let stand for 10 minutes for the yeast to activate.
- Meanwhile, combine the flour and California dry rub in another bowl. Stir to combine.
- Pour the hot water mixture into the flour bowl, then add 3 x ¼ cup of water, mixing the mixture between each addition to make it smooth.
- Flour the work surface and knead the dough by hand for a few minutes.
- Once the dough looks smooth and even, form it into a ball and place it back into the bowl it was in.
- Cover the bowl with a warm towel and let the dough rest for 30 minutes.
- Without removing the towel, “punch” the center of the dough ball with a fist. Let the dough rise for 30 minutes.
- Use the dough to make a pizza!
