How to Make the Ultimate Double Cheeseburger Pizza Stack
This recipe is surprisingly simple and comes together quickly with just a few steps.
Step 1: Prepare the Savory Beef Filling
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until soft and translucent. Stir in the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Sprinkle the paprika, cumin, chili powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let the flavors blend.
Once cooked, turn off the heat and fold in 1 cup of shredded cheese, allowing it to melt into the beef mixture. This creates a rich, cheesy texture that holds the layers together beautifully. 🧀🔥
Step 2: Build the First Pizza Layer
Place the first pizza crust on a large baking tray. Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce over the surface. Add half of the beef mixture evenly across the crust, spreading it all the way to the edges.
Top the beef with a generous handful of shredded cheese. This layer lays the foundation for a strong, sliceable stack.
Step 3: Add the Second Layer
Place the second pizza crust on top of the first one. Spread another thin layer of tomato sauce. Add the remaining half of the beef mixture, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle more cheese over the top — this helps create a golden, bubbly finish during baking. 😍
Step 4: Bake the Pizza Stack
Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).
Bake the pizza stack for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese on top is fully melted and lightly golden. The crusts will warm through, and the cheese will act as a natural glue between layers.
Step 5: Add Fresh, Cheeseburger-Style Toppings
Once out of the oven, let the stack rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Top your warm pizza stack with fresh shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and sliced pickles. This combination adds crunch, color, and the unmistakable cheeseburger flavor. 🥬🍅
Step 6: Drizzle the Signature Sauce
In a small bowl, mix yogurt or mayonnaise with mustard, ketchup, and garlic powder. Drizzle the sauce generously over the top before serving.
Tips for the Best Pizza Stack
Don’t Skip the Resting Time
Allowing the pizza stack to rest before slicing ensures clean layers and prevents the cheese from spilling out.
Replace or Add Toppings
Feel free to add sliced onions, jalapeños, or even caramelized onions for more depth.
Choose the Right Cheese
Cheddar gives a strong cheeseburger flavor, while mozzarella creates a stretchy melt. A blend of both is perfect.
Try Homemade Crust
If you love baking, homemade dough takes this recipe to another level — but ready-made works perfectly for busy days.
