Overhead of Cheeseburger Pizza.

I first had a cheeseburger pizza years and years ago at a local pizza restaurant chain, Wolfman Pizza, and it quickly became one of my favorite pizzas.

I tend to be a big fan of the nontraditional pizzas in general. Replicating a cheeseburger pizza at home actually turned out to be quite easy.

Judy says- “This pizza was truly awesome. The only changes I made was I left out the pickles and added some bbq sauce to the ketchup and mustard sauce mixture- both for personal preference… this was awesome and devoured by everyone. We range in age from 5 to 76 so a diverse group here. My son loved it!” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I used a prebaked crust to make this pizza super easy, but you could make a homemade dough or use store-bought pizza dough. The sauce is my favorite thing about the pizza. It’s made from a mixture of ketchup and mustard and gives the pizza a little zip. I like to mix a little of it into the browned ground beef for extra flavor. Dill pickles on a pizza may sound strange at first, but it really works with the sauce and the other ingredients.

Recipe

Cheeseburger Pizza

A fun, easy pizza that combines two favorite foods- pizza and cheeseburgers. Bacon, ground beef, dill pickles, tomatoes, and a special sauce give this pizza tons of flavor.

  • Serves 4
  • Prep 20 minutes
  • Cook 12 minutes
  • Total 32 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 3/4 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/3 cup diced onion
  • 1/3 cup diced green pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon steak seasoning
  • 1 prebaked thin pizza crust (such as Boboli)
  • 6 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled)
  • 1/4 cup diced dill pickle
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 2 roma tomatoes (thinly sliced)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place a pizza stone in the oven if you have one.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl mix together ketchup and mustard to make sauce.

  3. 3

    In a large skillet, sauté ground beef for 3 to 4 minutes, breaking the meat up with a wooden spoon. Add onion and green pepper and continue to cook until meat is no longer pink. Spoon off any excess grease.

  4. 4

    Add salt and steak seasoning to ground beef mixture. Mix 1 tablespoon of sauce into ground beef mixture.

  5. 5

    Spread some sauce on the pizza crust. I just add a thin layer of sauce. You can always drizzle additional sauce on top of the pizza.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle half of the cheddar cheese and half of the mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce.

  7. 7

    Spoon the ground beef mixture onto the pizza crust and sprinkle with bacon and pickles.

  8. 8

    Top with remaining cheese and roma tomato slices.

  9. 9

    Place on baking stone, directly on oven rack, or on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
