The origins of this British Bangers and Mash Pizza are shrouded in mystery, but it is thought to have been created in the early 1900s by a homesick British expat living in the United States. The expat, who missed the traditional British dish of bangers and mash, decided to recreate it using the convenience of a pre-made pizza crust. The result was a delicious and satisfying dish that quickly became a favorite among the expat's friends and family. Over time, the recipe spread throughout the United States and became a popular dish in its own right.
