Roasted garlic. Everytime I go to Mod pizza I cannot forget the roasted garlic. And yes, I always get it with pineapple
Fresh corn is weird but gives a similar sweet juicy effect. I like corn+feta+chile peppers
Chives, fresh or dry. It started as a joke when a buddy and I made the pizza from System of a Down's Chik N' Stu song and I've never gone back.
Fresh, they bring this green crispness that contrasts really well with the other ingredients. Dry chives burn a little in the baking process but in all the right ways, giving the whole pizza a deep smoky taste that feels amazing.
Sardines, olives, capers.
Roasted potatoes paired with chicken or beef and onion
Also pears, blue cheese, candied pecans, and balsamic glaze
You had me up to the balsamic. Thereβs too much funk for me there.

Caramelized Onions.
Not a topping, but underrated: ricotta instead of tomato sauce. So good!
Caramelized onions are really good on pizza
Pineapple and pepperoni, Prosciutto, Salami, Hot sauce/hot honey, Buffalo sauce/bbq sauce instead of pizza sauce
One of my favorites is bbq sauce, brisket, cheese and, hear me out, diced pickles
I love cranberry and camembert pizza
I got one that is more cursed then underrated:
Mac and cheese pizza, but right before you eat a bite you pour a tiny bit of cola on it first.
So you mix macaroni, pizza, and coke? You are a madmanβ¦
I donβt know if you cancan call it underrated, but bacon and egg is the best pizza
I like to crack quail eggs on pizzas so they come out over easy. Soooooo good

Tapatio hot sauce (or Valentinos), Crystal hot sauce, garlic powder, salt, pepper, sriracha.
All on the same pizza.

I have to say I'm loving the pineapple renaissance.
I'm biased because I've liked Hawaiian pizza since I was a kid but I still think the pineapple hate was overblown by a small and loud group of people who probably get upset when their peas touch their mashed potatoes
I love pineapple, the sweetness goes great with other savory toppings.
Pineapple, sausage, and Jalepeno is my go to because I usually have those in the freezer

My ideal trifecta - fresh tomatoes, green olives, pepperoni
My toppings of choice are olives, mushrooms, and pineapple.
I had a really good pizza topped with stinging nettle once.
Arugula and prosciutto, lightly drizzled with hot honey
My absolute favorite pizza is: white pizza (no red sauce), mozz of course, shrimp, bacon, spinach, and some fresh garlic, preferably sliced and roasted. All on a thin New Haven style crust. If youβre ever in New Haven and go to BAR, it will be an incredible pizza.

Charred fatty goose breast.
Blew my mind.
avacado
Cream cheese and black olives πoh so good
Here in Chicago we enjoy a thin crust with Italian beef and hot giardiniera.

My personal favorite is pineapple, mushroom, and jalapeΓ±o. Sweet, savory, and a dash of spiciness. Then Iβll usually add some dried scotch bonnet flakes if Iβm eating at home because Iβm a fiend for spice and scotch bonnets are delicious
