I decided to combine two of the greatest comfort foods ever….pizza and burgers. If you’re craving both, you don’t have to choose. I made a Pepperoni Pizza Burger so the decision never has to be made again. You’ll also appreciate the fact that I made the buns out of my pizza dough. It definitely “feels” like pizza and has the stringy cheesiness of pizza. Of course, you can use regular burger buns if you don’t...
Chefadora AI has the answer - timers, swaps, step-by-step help.
With prepared pizza dough, make 4 buns by forming 4 round discs with the dough, a little smaller than you want them to be.
Bake at 400°F for 10-14 minutes, until done.
Combine ground round, pepperoni, and Worcestershire sauce in a large mixing bowl and form into 4 burgers.
Pan fry or grill until desired doneness.
Add equal amounts of cheeses to each patty, cover until melted, and remove.
Mix crushed tomatoes with balsamic vinegar, basil, oregano, garlic powder, and seasoned salt; set aside.
Add sauce on the bottom bun, then place the burger patty, more sauce, another burger patty, more sauce, a basil leaf, and top with the remaining bun.
You will probably have dough left unless you make really big buns or need to make more than 4 burgers. Refrigerate it and make pizza the next day (up to 3 days).

Can I use store-bought burger buns instead of pizza dough buns?
Yes, you can use regular burger buns if you don't want to make pizza dough. The recipe will still be fantastic.
What type of ground beef should I use?
Use ground round (80/20) for flavor and juiciness. Avoid lean beef as it may lack flavor.
Can I substitute the cheeses?
Yes, you can substitute Mozzarella and Muenster with other cheeses, but these provide the best stringy cheesiness.
How long can I store leftover pizza dough?
You can refrigerate leftover pizza dough for up to 3 days.
Can I bake the burger patties instead of grilling or pan-frying?
Yes, you can bake the patties, but grilling or pan-frying will give them a better flavor and texture.
