From a local pizza place. (at least I think its local, pretty sure its not a chain)

No I didn’t do this just for a joke, I actually like it. Problem? Catch me outside, how 'bout that?

      The classic is with ham which I loved as a kid but I think now it’s sort of essential to have some pepperoni or salami or something in addition to or instead of ham if having pineapple. It needs that intensity to contrast the pineapple, the grease too, it’s a part of it, mixes with juice from the pineapple and just produces the most “pizza” of tastes, it’s like pure monosogoodium pizzamate. Chicken, I mean it’s probably fine but in general chicken on pizza is pretty dry and bland and it’s doing nothing to compliment the pineapple particularly.

        Actually the chicken on pizza shouldn’t, and doesn’t have to, be dry (though you’re right it often is, they use frozen).

        Start with fresh not frozen, chop it up appropriately, fry in a pan with a little texas pete mild buffalo to season, and then use that fully cooked as a topping but do it half under the cheese (sprinkle half, chicken, pine, jal, sprinkle half).

        That said, the pine juice actually helps compensate for the dry chicken, and if you’re feeling savory instead of salty it is a great pairing too. Doubly so with jal (for both).
