Here's a quickie, kids, since I'm wicked busy. It's just a little something that I tossed together with the rest of the pizza dough that was leftover from the
other calzones I made. I made some
barbecue bacon shredded chicken and wrapped it up,
as I have a wont to do. It was awesome.
A little cheese is in there, although you can't see it. Is it technically a calzone? I say yes, although others will say no. But definitions are a weird thing and I want to know what you think. What makes a calzone a calzone?

Looks like a great calzone to me.
I could so have that for dinner.
Def think a calzone must have cheese. It doesn't have to ooze cheese, but it has to include cheese. :) But where is the line between a savory empanada and a calzone? Perhaps it' sjust a size.
I like quick tasty food, not to mention if they are good looking too like this!
As long as there's a little cheese, it's still a calzone. Looks good. I love how this the crust is.
Hehe! Were you talking about me? To me it's a calzone if it has ricotta, otherwise it's a stuffed bread. That's just what I know it to be. It doesn't matter because it looks yummy!
Works for me--I love your calzones!
I don't think a calzone needs to have cheese...after all, there are cheese-less pizzas (sad though that idea is). I think a calzone just involves pizza dough being folded over some stuff. Bbq chicken, awesome.
I don't know what makes a calzone a calzone... but I'll have one of those!
Dajana: Thanks!
Duo: I always thought empanadas were made with pie dough...? But yeah, I agree that cheese is key.
Angie, Jenn: Thanks!
Michele: Heh, you are one of the people I was referring too. ;) Not that it upsets me, reasonable people can disagree. I also had someone tell me once that if it's not a specific shape it's not a calzone. Which I think is just nuts.
unconfidentialcook: thanks!
Hungry Dog: That's how I've always defined it myself.
Spryte: Heh, thanks!
Wicked!! lol
I hear that word so much around these parts.
Aren't calzones fun though?
Technically...I don't know. But I say it's a calzone...it's yummy dough wrapped around yummy fillings in the "shape" of a calzone...YUM :D
Your calzone looks really tasty! Thanks for droppin by my blog.
I don't think all calzones have to ooze with cheese. Your calzone looks pretty legitimate to me, and delicious too. : )gr
Definitely a calzone - pizza dough with a filling - you don't need even need cheese! This looks yummy - great for a fast dinner!
That is seriously beautiful. I want it for a midnight snack.
A rose by any other name is still a rose. And, by golly, that is a terrific looking calzone.
Looks wicked good, man! Actually, this has given me an idea...Hmmmm...
This is definitely a calzone. I like to think of calzones the way I think of pizza, which is to say that anything goes. I love the unique filling that you put in here. Sounds great.
thanks so much for commenting on and stopping by my blog! you've got some great food on here that I will be following.
Yes, I would call this a calzone. I would also call it delicious and steal the other half. :)
Bob, this sounds delicious. Think it would go down well with a cold beer.
Will definitely do some more research about this. It looks good to me though.
Who cares? It looks great under any name!
Looks like a delicious calzone to me! I love having leftover bbq chicken- there are so many great possibilities. Yum.
I love the idea of bbq chicken filling for a calzone, no need for cheese either :)
I love the filling! Great recipe.
Simple but I'm tasting it in my mind---yum!
Being someone who's never even had a calzone, I don't know. I think it looks pretty tasty!
drool! to me if its wrapped in pizza dough...it's a calzone!
Yum! Looks great! And so convenient when you are on the go!
yes it is a calzone (although I break all the rules about what is what, and still call it what it was kind of like)
You're the artist, call it whatever you want...I call it tasty looking!!!
I call it delicious! After all, It has bacon.. :) But I would have to agree with Danielle, if it's wrapped in Pizza dough, then it's a calzone...
*bows down to the calzone king!* All Hail Bob!
☆ This looks yummy ☆
I'm not sure what's this name. All I know it looks awesome good. hehe... Can't believe it! You can actually cook so well LOL.
