How to Make 2Bleu's Pepperoni Pizza Burgers
- Add 1 cup of sliced pepperoni to a food processor and pulse until most of it is finely ground.
- Add 1 lb ground beef and 4 oz Italian sausage to the food processor and pulse to combine with the pepperoni.
- Gently form the meat mixture into 4 equal-sized patties. Using your thumb, create a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent bulging during cooking.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
- If using mushrooms (optional, about 8 oz), sauté them in a separate pan until tender, about 1-2 minutes. Set aside.
- Add the patties to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until cooked through. Pat gently with a spatula to maintain a wide shape as needed.
- Once the burgers are nearly done, top each patty with the sauteed mushrooms (if using), 1 slice of provolone cheese, and 1 slice of mozzarella cheese.
- Reduce heat to low, cover the skillet tightly, and let the cheese melt completely, about 2-3 minutes.
- Place each cooked patty on a bottom bun. Spread warmed pizza sauce (about 2 tablespoons per burger) over the melted cheese.
- Top with the bun and enjoy your delicious Pepperoni Pizza Burgers!
