2BLEU'S PEPPERONI PIZZA BURGERS



2bleu's Pepperoni Pizza Burgers image

Pizza burgers lack many things, among them, pepperoni! Here is our version which we feel is totally 'Pizza'! Try it with our recipe #255242 which is packed with pizza flavor and requires no cooking! Suggested from a friend: Instead of patting burgers with a spatula, on a TV cooking show the chef placed an indent in the middle of the raw patty with their thumb. As the burgers cook the indent recedes and the burger keeps its shape. Haven't tried it yet but will let you know if it works. Apparently a good way to check the doneness too.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 4 Burgers

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 -4 ounces sliced pepperoni
1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 lb ground mild Italian sausage
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
4 slices mozzarella cheese
4 slices provolone cheese
1/2 cup pizza sauce, warmed (recommended 2bleu's 2 Minute 2 Easy Pizza Sauce)
4 kaiser rolls, toasted (or similar type burger buns)

Steps:

  • To a food processor, add the sliced pepperoni. Mix until most of the pepperoni is ground up, pulsing as you go. Add the ground beef and sausage. Form meat into 4 patties.
  • To a large skillet over medium/med-high heat, melt the butter and olive oil until butter is melted. If using mushrooms, saute them until done, 1-2 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon and set aside.
  • Add the patties to the pan and cook 4-5 minutes per side until cooked thru. Pat the burgers down with the spatula as needed to retain a wide burger (enough to cover the bun).
  • When burgers are just about done, place mushrooms on burgers (if using), then 1 slice each of the cheeses on top of each burger. Reduce heat to low (or turn burner off if electric oven), cover tightly and let steam until cheese is melted (1-2 minutes).
  • Place burgers on top of bottom bun then spread warmed pizza sauce over top of melted cheese. Close up buns and enjoy.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your pepperoni pizza burgers. Use a high-quality ground beef, a flavorful pizza sauce, and fresh, crispy pepperoni.
  • Cook the burgers to your desired doneness: Some people prefer their burgers cooked rare or medium-rare, while others prefer them cooked all the way through. Cook the burgers to your desired doneness, but be careful not to overcook them, or they will become dry and tough.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is an important part of any pizza burger. Use a cheese that melts well and has a good flavor. Some good options include mozzarella, cheddar, and provolone.
  • Don't skimp on the toppings: Toppings are what really make a pizza burger special. Load up your burgers with your favorite toppings, such as pepperoni, bacon, onions, mushrooms, and peppers.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce: Pizza burgers are often served with a dipping sauce, such as marinara sauce or ranch dressing. Choose a dipping sauce that you enjoy and that complements the flavors of the burger.

Conclusion:

Pepperoni pizza burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a burger that is sure to please everyone at the table.
