Description
A delicious mashup of cheeseburgers and pizza, featuring a crisp crust topped with seasoned beef, melted cheddar, and dill pickles.
Ingredients
Scale
- 400 g (3 cups) all-purpose flour dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 500 g (1.1 lb) 80/20 ground beef
- 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp (15 g) tomato paste
- 60 ml (4 tbsp) ketchup
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) yellow or Dijon mustard
- 200 g (2 cups) shredded sharp cheddar
- 100 g (1 cup) shredded mozzarella
- 60 g (about 6 slices) thin dill pickles
- 10 g (2 tsp) kosher salt
- 1 tsp (5 g) black pepper, freshly ground
- 15 ml (1 tbsp) olive oil
Instructions
- Make or ready the dough by letting it rest if refrigerated, or by mixing ingredients if making quick dough.
- Cook and season the beef in a skillet with olive oil, browning it and adding the tomato paste, ketchup, mustard, salt, and pepper.
- Preheat the oven to 240°C (475°F) with a pizza stone or steel inside for even heating.
- Assemble the pizza layers: sauce, mozzarella, seasoned beef, and cheddar on the stretched dough to ensure no sogginess.
- Bake the pizza for 10–12 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
- Finish the pizza with dill pickle slices, let it rest, and then slice to serve.
Notes
Pre-bake the dough for extra crispiness if desired. Use fresh cheese for best melting results.
