Pictou County pizza

Pictou County pizza is a regional variant of pizza found in Pictou County, Nova Scotia. The pizza utilizes a "brown sauce" that includes common pizza sauce-related ingredients such as tomatoes, onions and oregano as well as less common sauce ingredients like flour and chicken broth. [1] It also uses Halifax-made Brothers pepperoni[2] made by Chris Brothers Meats & Deli.[3]
