🍔 What is a Pizza Stack?
Think deep-dish pizza meets a Big Mac. A pizza stack takes multiple layers of pizza crust and fills them with classic burger ingredients to create a sliceable, sandwich-style pie. Every bite delivers the satisfaction of a cheeseburger and the comfort of a pizza. This version doubles the meat, doubles the cheese, and triples the flavor.
🧀 Ingredients
For the Pizza Dough:
2 store-bought pizza bases (or homemade dough)
Olive oil for brushing
For the Cheeseburger Filling:
500g (1 lb) ground beef
Salt & pepper to taste
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella
4 slices American cheese (or cheese of choice)
4 strips crispy bacon, chopped
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup pickles, sliced
2 tbsp ketchup
2 tbsp mustard
Optional: jalapeños for heat
For the Topping:
Sesame seeds (for that burger bun look)
Extra cheese for melting over the top
Special burger sauce or Thousand Island for drizzling
🔥 How to Make It
Step 1: Cook the Beef
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until browned. Drain excess grease and set aside.
Step 2: Prep the Base
Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Place one pizza crust on a lined baking tray. Brush lightly with olive oil. Spread a layer of mustard and ketchup across the base.
Step 3: Layer the Goodness
Top with half the cooked beef, a mix of cheddar and mozzarella, some bacon, onions, and pickles. Place 2 slices of American cheese on top.
Add the second pizza crust on top and press down lightly. Repeat with the remaining beef, cheese, bacon, and other toppings. Finish with extra shredded cheese.
Step 4: Top and Toast
Brush the top crust with olive oil and sprinkle sesame seeds over for that “burger bun” look. Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and bubbly.
Step 5: Serve with Style
Let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice into wedges, drizzle with burger sauce, and serve with fries or a simple side salad.
