🍕🍔 Ultimate Double Cheeseburger Pizza Stack 🍔🍕
A wild mashup of two of the world’s greatest comfort foods — the cheeseburger and the pizza — brought together in one towering, cheesy, flavor-loaded masterpiece. This Ultimate Double Cheeseburger Pizza Stack combines juicy beef patties, melted cheese, and tangy pizza sauce layered between golden pizza crusts for an indulgent feast worthy of any celebration.
🏛️ History
The idea of merging pizza and burgers isn’t new — chefs and home cooks have experimented with hybrid foods for decades. The “pizza burger” first appeared in American diners during the 1960s, but this stacked version takes the trend to another level. Inspired by viral social media food challenges and fairground creations, the Double Cheeseburger Pizza Stack is all about bold flavors and ultimate satisfaction.
🍽️ Ingredients
For the Beef Patties:
- 4 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend for juiciness)
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (optional – for firmer patties)
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp black pepper
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
For the Pizza Layers:
- 2 prepared pizza doughs (or homemade)
- 1 ½ cups pizza sauce or marinara
- 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup sliced pepperoni (optional)
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced and caramelized
- 1 tomato, thinly sliced
- Pickles (for garnish)
For Assembly:
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for brushing)
- Sesame seeds (optional, for topping crust)
🔥 Instructions
- Prepare the Beef Patties:
- In a large bowl, mix ground beef, eggs, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce until just combined.
- Divide into 4 large patties, about the size of your pizza base.
- Cook each patty on a griddle or skillet over medium-high heat for about 5–6 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat and set aside.
- Prepare Pizza Bases:
- Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F).
- Roll out pizza doughs into equal-sized rounds (about 12 inches).
- Place one on a baking sheet, brush with olive oil, and bake for 6–8 minutes until lightly golden. Repeat for the second base.
- Assemble the Stack:
- On the first baked crust, spread ½ cup pizza sauce, sprinkle with mozzarella and cheddar cheese, then add two beef patties.
- Layer with caramelized onions, pepperoni, and tomato slices.
- Add another layer of cheese and top with the second pizza base.
- Repeat with sauce, remaining beef patties, and toppings.
- Finish with a generous layer of cheese and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
- Bake the Stack:
- Bake the entire assembled pizza stack in the oven for 15–18 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Cool and Serve:
- Let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice into wedges like a pizza.
- Garnish with pickle slices and serve with extra pizza sauce or burger sauce.
