Instructions
Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce. Halve, peel, and dice onion. Halve, core, and dice bell pepper into ½-inch pieces.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and slightly softened, 3-4 minutes. Lightly season with salt and pepper. Add sausage* to pan; cook, breaking up meat into pieces until almost cooked through, 3-4 minutes (It’ll finish cooking in Step 4). Transfer to a plate and set aside.
Place 3 TBSP butter, garlic powder, oregano, and 1 tsp sugar in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until butter melts, 1 minute. Whisk in tomato paste, half the vinegar (save the rest for another use), and ¼ cup water until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Open tubes of Pillsbury™ Classic Pizza Crust and separate sheets at dotted line. (TIP: Use a knife to separate cleanly.) Divide between two lightly oiled baking sheets; gently stretch into four ovals (to mimic footballs!), each about 6 by 9 inches.
Evenly spread dough ovals with sauce, then top with as much sausage mixture, bell pepper, mozzarella, and Parmesan as you like.
Bake pizzas on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through, until sausage is cooked through, veggies are lightly charred, and cheese is melted, 8-10 minutes.
Transfer pizzas to a cutting board; slice into pieces. Divide between plates and serve.
Pork Sausage is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.
