Supreme Pizza Garbage Bread Recipes

GARBAGE BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a skillet on medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy but still chewy, then remove from pan and chop finely.
• Drain most of the fat then add the ground beef and onion to the pan cooking until the beef is cooked through, about 5-6 minutes.
• Add in the cooked bacon, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper and green onions.
• Roll out the French bread dough onto a cutting board.
• Spread the cheddar cheese onto the dough, then add the beef mixture over the dough, leaving a 1" border around the edge.
• Roll up the dough tightly, rolling along the longer side of the dough. Tuck the 1/2 inch on each side underneath the rolled dough log.
• Brush the melted butter over the top of the dough and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Bake in oven 20-25 minutes until bread is golden brown.

GARBAGE BREAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the bread flour in a mixing bowl. Add the salt and yeast on opposite sides of the bowl, then stir each one in with your finger. Mix in the sugar.
• Pour in the olive oil and half of the water, then begin to mix with your fingers. Keep stirring and crushing the mixture, gradually adding more water as needed, until a somewhat sticky dough has formed. Make sure all of the flour has been picked up from the bottom of the bowl.
• Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10-15 minutes, until it is very smooth and no longer leaves a sticky residue on your hands or the work surface.
• Use the windowpane test to see if the dough is sufficiently kneaded. Break off a piece and stretch it with your fingers until it's translucent. It should be able to stretch to translucency without breaking; if it breaks, knead for a minute longer and check again.
• Pour a little olive oil into a mixing bowl. Shape the dough into a ball and turn it in the bowl to coat with oil. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let it prove in a warm place until at least doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Grate the mozzarella and cheddar cheeses and refrigerate until needed. Rinse, pat dry, and finely chop a few basil leaves.
• Punch down the risen dough to remove the air pockets, then roll it out on a lightly floured surface to a rectangle about 11x17 inches.
• Spread the dough with the tomato sauce, leaving a 1-2 inch border all the way around. Sprinkle with black pepper, Italian seasoning, and chopped fresh basil. Scatter the grated cheeses on top, then lay the pepperoni slices on top.
• Starting from the long side of the rectangle closest to you, begin rolling the dough into a log. Go slowly and try to keep the roll as tight as possible. Firmly pinch the seam and ends to seal.
• Place the log on a rimmed 11x17-inch cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and let it prove in a warm place until the dough springs back quickly when prodded with a fingertip, about 40 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 F. Start the oven about 10 minutes before the bread is done proving.
• Watch the loaf as it bakes; some of the cheese may leak out of the bread if it cracks in the oven. Check to see if it's baked by inserting a thermometer into the center of the loaf; it should read at least 190 F.
• Let the garbage bread cool for 40 minutes on a wire cooling rack, then slice and serve plain or with marinara dipping sauce. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3-5 days.

REUBEN GARBAGE BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Season with additional salt if needed. Set aside
• Stir the baking soda into 1/3 cup of super-hot tap water until dissolved. Set aside.
• Put the sauerkraut into a large kitchen towel and wring it out over the kitchen sink to remove any excess liquid. Set aside.
• Sprinkle the dough all over with the caraway seeds then roll into a 20-by-14-inch rectangle on a lightly floured work surface. Some of the caraway seeds will fall away from the dough, but a lot of the seeds should work in as you roll it out. Arrange the pastrami evenly on one half of the dough, starting on the shorter end and leaving a 1-inch border on the sides. Spread half the sauce over the pastrami. Separate the cheese pieces and shingle them over the sauce. Scatter the sauerkraut on top. Working from the short side, tightly roll up the dough into a log, jelly roll-style. Pinch the open ends together to seal, then tuck them underneath the log.
• Transfer the log, seam side-down, onto the prepared baking sheet and brush all over with the baking soda wash (you will not use all the wash). Bake, rotating the pan halfway through, until the bread is deep golden brown, 40 to 50 minutes.
• Let the bread cool for 10 minutes. Slice into 8 pieces and serve warm with the remaining sauce.
