Instructions

  1. In a medium skillet, cook the pepperoni and green pepper over medium heat until the green pepper is tender, about 4 minutes. Cool completely.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine ground beef, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and the pepperoni mixture. Form into 4 ½-inch thick patties.
  3. Heat the olive oil in an oven-proof skillet over medium heat and add the patties. Cook 4-6 minutes per side or until they reach 150°F. (see notes for other cooking methods)
  4. Meanwhile, heat the pizza sauce on the stovetop or in the microwave.
  5. Turn the broiler on to high. Spoon 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce over each patty and top with mozzarella cheese and pepperoni slices. Broil 1-2 minutes or until cheese melts and begins to brown. Rest for 3 minutes or until the beef patties reach 160°F.
  6. Meanwhile, spread garlic butter on the buns and broil 1-2 minutes or until lightly toasted.
  7. Place a beef patty on each bun to serve. Warm additional pizza sauce for dipping if desired.

Notes

  • To Prepare on the Grill:Preheat grill to medium-high heat.Prepare the beef patties as directed and grill for 6-8 minutes per side or until cooked through.Turn the grill off and top with the warmed sauce, cheese, and pepperoni. Close the lid of the grill and let the patties rest until the cheese has melted.
  • Chill leftover pizza burgers for 3-4 days in the fridge. Freeze them without cheese or sauce between parchment for up to 4 months. Reheat in the oven, then broil with sauce and toppings.
