This pizza burger starts with our new Pork Italian Patties, then gets stacked with all your pizza favorites: warm pizza sauce, melty fresh mozzarella, basil and more. Keep it pork-only for an easy Italian sausage-style burger or add a beef patty and make it a double!
Ingredients
- (4 patties or 1 lb or 1 pkg) Italian Sausage Patties
- (4) Burger buns
- (3/4 to 1 cup) Pizza sauce
- (8 oz) Fresh mozzarella
- (1-2) Tomatoes, sliced (pat dry)
- (1/4 cup) Black olives
- Fresh basil leaves
- Optional: butter (for toasting buns), pepperoni, sauteed mushrooms, red pepper flakes
Directions
People's favorite pizza toppings are as varied as people themselves so please customize this recipe to your heart's content - just don't forget the TF patties!
- Cook the pork Italian patties over medium heat until cooked through. If doubling up, cook the beef patties too.
- Top the patties with mozzarella during the last minute of cooking and cover briefly to help it melt.
- Toast the buns cut-side down in a lightly greased skillet or on the grill, if desired (optional but in our world, toasted buns are mandatory).
- Spread warm pizza sauce on the buns.
- Assemble: add a pork patty, a beef patty too if you're doubling up, then top with all your favorite pizza toppings like: pepperoni, sauteed mushrooms, red onions, red pepper flakes, etc. (Pineapple?) Serve hot.
