Yes, you can put pulled pork, bbq sauce, and onions on a pizza!
This is the BBQ pulled pork pizza with red onions from Dr Oetker in Germany

Flammkuchen / Tarte Flambeé / "German pizza"
This evening I found a slab of Speck (strong-smoked bacon) in the freezer that I didn't know we had, there was half an onion and a tub of Lithuanian sour cream in the fridge, so @dduane decided to try Flammkuchen.
Originally, so the story goes, it was made by bakers as a pre-thermometer way to check the temperature of their wood-fired ovens (and provide a quick snack at the same time).
Tarte flambée is the French name, but "German Pizza" or indeed any sort of pizza it certainly isn't; there's neither tomato sauce nor cheese, and no yeast in the dough.
Whether it's German or French depends on who you ask, since it originates from the province of Alsace, an area which has changed hands a lot in the past couple of centuries and whose ownership has been A Source Of Friction Between Guess Who for almost as long.
To stay neutral, the recipe DD used is Swiss. ;->
Here's the translation:
*****
Alsatian tarte flambée
This delicious speciality from Alsace is also ideal for an aperitif. Thinly rolled bread dough with sour cream, onions and bacon cubes!
350g flour (12½ oz)
1.25 tsp salt
2 dl water (6.7 US fl oz / .42 US pt)
2 tbsp olive oil
200 g crème fraîche / sour cream (7 oz)
2 onions (we had less, so used less...)
120 g farmer's (thick, well-smoked) bacon in slices (4¼ oz)
a small grind of pepper
And this is how it's done:
Mix flour and salt in a bowl. Pour in water and oil, mix and knead into a soft, smooth dough. Form the dough into a ball, cover and let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 240 degrees (464 F). Halve the dough and roll it out into an oval shape about 3 mm thick (1/10 inch) on a lightly floured surface. Place the dough on two baking sheets lined with baking paper.
Spread the crème fraîche / sour cream over the dough, leaving a border of approx. 1 cm (½ inch) free all around. Peel the onions, cut them into fine rings, cut the bacon into strips, spread both over the crème fraîche / sour cream and season.
Baking per tray: approx. 12 minutes each on the bottom shelf of the oven.
*****
Since this was our first time making Flammkuchen, we baked them one at a time to check for errors. There were none (Swiss recipe!) and 12 minutes was exactly right to produce this result both times:
DD needs to be careful because of IBS so they were made with mostly bacon on one side, mostly onion on the other, and with a glass of cool white wine they made an excellent Sunday supper.
Next time, now we know how well this recipe works, we'll be more generous with the toppings. :->
Incidentally, rather than baking-trays or the pizza stone we need to replace (ceramic utensils, tile floors and gravity Do Not Mix Well) we used the cast-iron griddle which in summer often goes on the BBQ...
... and gave the oven a thorough pre-heating, then transferred the Flammkuchen in and out with a peel, all of which worked splendidly.
That tip about using baking paper is excellent, BTW: no sticking, no spillage, no washing up. I bet it'll work with other things as well.
Like, for instance, more Flammkuchen... ;->

I had my chats with close friends about it, but lemme just mention it here too - I desperately want to love Pizza Tower unconditionally.
The gameplay & soundtrack fuck severely and I genuinely am so happy so see so many folks experiment with extreme expressions and poses bases on the game's art style- which is something that helps artists in their development immensely, no matter the age or skill level!
But the whole experience is soured by several enemy designs, their animations... and even names in some cases.
As folks are digging through the files & also take their time to just walk around levels to look at everything at their own pace, shit just keeps piling up and it makes me feel nauseous.
I need to stress: I am not saying folks shouldn't enjoy the game! I enjoy a good chunk of it too! But be mindful and aware, okay? And most of all: listen to what minorities have to say about it.

things i like abt the german language as someone trying to learn german
-words are pronounced exactly the way theyre spelled
-english is germanic, so many words are similar enough that u can easily figure out the meaning jst by looking at the word (Milch=Milk, Buch=Book, Bruder=Brother, Schwester=Sister, etc etc)
-other words are just word+word and german is so Literal with naming shit so if u know some words its easy to kinda figure out what smthng means (Handschuhe = literally, “Hand Shoes” = Gloves)
-vocabulary is So Easy to remember bc of these above 3 points like frfr
things i hate abt the german language as someone trying to learn german
-GENDERED NOUNS can die (DER DIE DAS)
-DECLENSIONS are AAAA (DEN DEM DES)
-CONJUGATIONS as well are horrible (especially PAST TENSE VERBS and literally every conjugation of the verb WERDEN) (its so HARD to remember and understand)
-PLURAL VERSIONS of nouns are so DUMB (it makes NO SENSE)

I asked ChatGPT for some polyglot fun sentences. Here's what it came up with.
"Ich hatte einen Traum in Roma, but it was just a pizza my mind."
"I was reading a livre about a man who had a pomme de terre for a head, it was truly un putain de roman."
"I went to Helsinki and asked for a jäätee, but they gave me a tea that was just jäätävä."
"I met a hombre who said he was très contente with his new trabajo, but when I asked him what he did, he just shrugged and said, 'C'est compliqué.'"
"Ich wollte einen pizza margherita bestellen, but the waiter told me they only had eine Margherita ohne Käse."
"Ich wollte eine pizza mit salsiccia und funghi bestellen, but the pizzaiolo said they only had uma pizza com linguiça e cogumelos."
It's a little pizza obsessed I think! :D

Okay, so, about the pineapple on pizza debate:
I know it's not originally Italian and I'd never order it if I was on vacation in Italy (I'd order Margherita or Funghi), but I actually really like pineapple on pizza. I like salty and sweet together. I also like chocolate with caramel-salt or honey-salt-nut flavour for example. Or when I cook with tofu, I always fry it in peanut oil and then add soy sauce and maple syrup. It's delicious!
