Pizza Burgers

Someone in my video game mentioned burgers, fries and milkshakes. It was nearing dinner time and I was starving already. Burgers sounded really good, but I also had a craving for pizza. So tonight for dinner, we had pizza burger.

Another friend in the same game seemed a little baffled by this.

Kent von Relven: ((...pizza...burgers...))
Satin Falcon: ((:)
Kent von Relven: ((It's possible to combine these two heavenly treats?))
Satin Falcon: ((mhmm

And here I am now posting the blog just so he can see exactly how such a creation is made.

ONWARD!

What you'll need:

2 lbs ground beef (I use 80/20)
2 tbsp Italian blend seasoning
8 oz pizza sauce or traditional pasta sauce, divided.
2 cups plain bread crumbs or Panko
1 egg

Combine all ingredients and half of the sauce, in a large bowl. Remove any rings, bracelets, watches or anything you don't want raw meat stuck to.

Mix well. If it's too wet add more bread crumbs, too dry add a bit more sauce.

Preheat your grill or stove top griddle until a drop of water just skitters across it. About 400ºF (204.5ºC). Also preheat your oven to 350ºF (176.5ºC)

Form your burgers into palm size patties and place on the grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes until no pink remains on the edges. Flipping about half way through. You should have nice grill marks on both sides.

Place burgers into a oven safe dish and pour the rest of the sauce over the tops of the burgers and top with mozzarella cheese. Put into oven and cook for 30-40 minutes or until the internal temp reads 145ºF(62.5ºC)

Serve with favorite sides and enjoy!
