Pizza Burgers

Satisfy your cravings with these mouthwatering pizza burgers—perfectly grilled beef patties topped with pepperoni and melty cheese!

Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
16-24 slices pepperoni
½ cup pizza sauce
1 tsp Italian seasoning
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions:
1️⃣ Prepare the Patties:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly mixed. Form the mixture into four patties and set aside.

2️⃣ Toast the Buns:
Preheat your grill or grilling pan and heat the broiler to medium-high. Place the split buns on a baking sheet and toast them under the broiler until golden. Remove the tops and set aside.

3️⃣ Grill the Patties:
Grill each patty for approximately 4-5 minutes per side or until cooked to your desired doneness.

4️⃣ Heat the Sauce:
While the patties are grilling, gently heat the pizza sauce in a saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally.

5️⃣ Assemble the Bottoms:
Once the sauce is warmed, spread half of it onto the bottom halves of the toasted buns. Distribute half of the mozzarella cheese and pepperoni over the sauce.

6️⃣ Melt the Cheese:
Broil the assembled bottom halves for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.

7️⃣ Complete the Burgers:
Top each toasted bottom half with a grilled patty, then add the remaining sauce, mozzarella, and pepperoni. Broil until the additional toppings have melted.

8️⃣ Finish Up:
Place the bun tops over each completed burger and enjoy!
