Description
Cheeseburger Pizza combines the best of both worlds — seasoned beef, melted cheddar and mozzarella, tangy burger sauce, and classic toppings like pickles and tomatoes — all on a warm, crispy crust. Perfect for weeknights, game day, or family pizza night.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (85/15 lean preferred)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 pre-made pizza crust or homemade dough
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup burger sauce (mix of mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard)
- 1/2 cup diced onions (optional, sautéed)
- 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup sliced pickles
- 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Heat oven to 450°F (230°C). If using a pizza stone, preheat it in the oven. If using a sheet pan, lightly oil it.
- Cook Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce until browned. Drain excess fat.
- Assemble Pizza: Spread burger sauce over crust. Add half the cheddar and mozzarella. Top with beef, onions, remaining cheese, and bacon if using.
- Bake: Bake for 10–15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and crust is golden.
- Add Fresh Toppings: Top with diced tomatoes and pickles after baking. Slice and serve immediately.
Notes
- For Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza: Add cooked bacon before baking.
- Spicy variation: Use jalapeños, pepper jack cheese, or hot sauce in burger sauce.
- Keto option: Use cauliflower or fathead dough crust.
- Pickles: Always add after baking to keep them crisp.
- Storage: Freeze unbaked pizza without fresh toppings for up to 3 months.
