Here it is—the Ultimate Double Cheeseburger Pizza Stack.
This is over-the-top, messy, tall, cheesy, and ridiculously good. Think: two pizzas acting like buns, stacked with a full double cheeseburger experience in between.
Perfect for parties, game day, or when you want to stun a crowd.
🍕 Ultimate Double Cheeseburger Pizza Stack
INGREDIENTS
For the “Pizza Buns” (2 pizzas)
- 2 store-bought or homemade pizza dough balls
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella
- 1 cup shredded cheddar
- 1 cup pizza or marinara sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Olive oil
For the Burger Layer
- 1.5 lbs ground beef (80/20 works best)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt & pepper
- 6–8 slices American or cheddar cheese
- 1 medium onion, sliced and sautéed
- 8–12 dill pickle slices
Special Sauce (optional but AMAZING)
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp mustard
- 1 tbsp finely chopped pickles or relish
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make the Two Pizzas (“the buns”)
- Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C).
- Stretch each dough ball into a 12-inch pizza crust.
- Brush lightly with olive oil.
- Top each with pizza sauce, then a mix of mozzarella + cheddar.
- Sprinkle garlic powder and Italian seasoning.
- Bake 10–12 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Let them cool slightly—these will be your top and bottom layers.
2. Make the Burger Patties
- Mix ground beef with Worcestershire, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Divide into two large, wide patties—almost the size of a pizza (they’ll shrink).
- Cook in a skillet or grill over medium-high heat until done (about 4–5 minutes per side).
- Just before removing, place 3–4 slices of cheese on each patty and let it melt.
- Sauté onions separately until caramelized or soft.
3. Make the Special Sauce
Mix all sauce ingredients in a bowl. Chill until assembly.
4. Assemble the Pizza Stack
- Place the first pizza on a large board or sheet pan (cheese side up).
- Spread a thin layer of special sauce on the pizza.
- Add the first cheeseburger patty.
- Add half the sautéed onions and a layer of pickles.
- Place the second cheeseburger patty on top.
- Add remaining onions and pickles.
- Spread a little more sauce.
- Cap it with the second pizza, cheese side down (so the cheese presses into the meat, like a real sandwich).
You now have a monster stack.
5. Final Melt (Optional but awesome)
Bake the entire assembled stack at 400°F (205°C) for 5 minutes to fuse everything together.
6. Slice and Serve
Use a big chef’s knife or pizza rocker.
Cut into wedges like a deep pizza or giant burger slices.
Serve with fries—or nothing, because this thing is the meal.
