  • Make 4 ground beef patties, creating an indentation in the middle of each patty. (I use a flatbottomed glass.) This will help your burgers to flatten while cooking.

  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. When skillet is ready, spray with non-stick cooking spray and add patties.

  • It is recommended to reach an internal temperature of 160ºF for well-done.
  • Remove patties from pan and add a slice of mozzarella cheese to each patty, allowing cheese slices to melt.
    A slice of mozzarella cheese added to the top of each hot cooked patty.
  • When pizza is done, use a round cutter to cut circle “buns” the size of your burgers. You will need to cut 8 buns for 4 burgers.
    A circular cutter is used to create round "buns" for the pizza burger. The pizza is cooked.
  • Create pizza burgers by placing each burger in between two pizza “buns.” Place pizza bun on plate.
    The cut pizza is used as a bun, the patty is placed on top of the pizza.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Let the pizza cool enough for the toppings to remain in place when you turn the top "bun" upside down on the burger.
  • Be sure not to overwork your burger. It will be juicier.
