Equipment

  • 1 Grill or stovetop skillet
  • 1 Mixing bowl
  • 1 Meat thermometer (optional)
  • 3 Spatula

Ingredients
  

Ingredients For the Burgers:

  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20 for juiciness)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 tbsp Salt and pepper, Add according to your preference taste
  • 4 slices mozzarella cheese
  • 4 burger buns

Ingredients For the Toppings

  • 1 cup pizza sauce
  • 1 cup sliced pepperoni
  • 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers optional
  • 1/2 cup sliced black olives optional
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish, optional

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Patties:
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
  • Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties.
  • Preheat the Grill:
  • Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface to prevent sticking.
  • Cook the Burgers:
  • Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until browned.
  • Flip the burgers and cook for another 3-4 minutes. If using a meat thermometer, the internal temperature should reach 160°F (71°C).
  • Add Cheese and Toppings:
  • During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a slice of mozzarella cheese. Close the lid (or cover with a pan) to melt the cheese.
  • While the cheese melts, toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
  • Assemble the Pizza Burgers:
  • Spread a generous amount of pizza sauce on the bottom half of each bun.
  • Place the cheesy burger patty on top, followed by pepperoni and any additional toppings you desire (bell peppers, olives).
  • Top with the other half of the bun.
  • Rest and Serve:
  • Allow the burgers to rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
  • Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
  • Notes
  • Feel free to customize your Pizza Burgers with your favorite pizza toppings, such as mushrooms, onions, or jalapeños.
  • For a healthier option, use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef.
  • These burgers pair wonderfully with a side of fries or a fresh salad.
  • Enjoy your delicious Pizza Burgers!
