How To Make Cheeseburger Pizza
Not only does this pizza have all the goodness of your favorite cheeseburger, but it also has my absolute favorite sauce as the base… fry sauce!!
Spread your pizza dough out onto a lightly greased pizza pan or flat baking sheet. I brushed the edges with a little egg wash and sprinkled with sesame seeds to achieve that toasted sesame seed bun.
The fry sauce is a must. It’s actually just ketchup, mayo and a touch of hot sauce mixed together. If you haven’t tried it yet, do it. It’s amazing.
Brown some hamburger with some onions and some special seasonings, then sprinkle that over the top.
Follow it up with some shredded cheese, a drizzle of ketchup and mustard and a few slices of dill pickles (trust me… it really makes this pizza!).
How Long To Bake Pizza
Bake pizza in a 425 degree oven for just 12 to 15 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the middle is bubbly and cooked through.
This Cheeseburger Pizza covers both cravings of pizza and burgers.
I love combining favorite dishes together, especially when they turn out SO AWESOME!

Cheeseburger Pizza
Ingredients
For the Pizza Dough:
- 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1 pizza crust yeast, 1/4 oz. pkg.
- 1 1/2 tsp sugar
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 2/3 cup very warm water
- 3 tbsp olive oil
For the Pizza:
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
- 1/2 lb. ground beef
- 1 tsp seasoned salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 1/4 cup mayo
- 4 tbsp ketchup, divided
- 1 tsp hot sauce
- 2 cups colby jack cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup dill pickle chips, (sliced )drained
- Mustard
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly grease a 12" pizza pan and set aside.
For the Pizza Dough:
- Combine 1 cup four, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Add water and oil. Mix until well blended, about 1 minute. Gradually add in enough flour until a soft dough ball is formed. Dough will be slightly sticky.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead the dough, adding additional flour if need, until the dough is smooth and elastic (about 4 minutes). Press the dough out to fit the prepared pizza pan.
For the Pizza:
- Beat the egg with 1 tbsp water and brush the edges of the dough with the egg wash mixture. Sprinkle the edges with the sesame seeds.
- Brown the hamburger in a skillet over medium heat with the seasoned salt, black pepper and diced onion. Cook until no longer pink and drain any excess fat.
- Meanwhile combine the mayo, 2 1/2 tbsp ketchup and the hot sauce in a small dish and whisk until smooth. Spread this mixture over the base of the pizza dough with the back of a spoon. Top with the cooked ground beef.
- Spread the shredded cheese over the top. Drizzle the remaining ketchup and mustard over the top of the pizza, followed by the dill pickle chips.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until center is bubbly and crust is golden brown. Let cool slightly before slicing. Enjoy!

I only used a teaspoon of seasoned salt and it was still pretty salty(and I like salt!). Was the Tablespoon called for correct?
It was unique, and pretty good, but we decided we like pizza to be pizza and cheeseburgers to be cheeseburgers, lol.
Eric
Yum! I love the cheeseburger pizza from our local place, but this was even better and saved a trip out in the cold and twenty bucks! This was delicious, and will definitely be making it again.

Lynn Harris
Super easy to follow recipe and absolutely loved the home made pizza crust (researched the difference between pizza crust yeast and regular yeast – ordered pizza crust yeast on line and sooooo glad. No more order out pizza this is beyond comparison and hot out of oven. Mustard and pickles give it the special kick to say cheesburger!! Thank You
Shawn
Yay!! So glad you enjoyed the pizza Lynn! Thank you for the comment!
Vicki
What is pizza crust yeast and where do you find it? Will regular yeast work?
Shawn
Pizza crust yeast is basically the same thing as rapid rise yeast.
Vicki
What is pizza crust yeast? Will regular yeast work the same?
Shawn
It’s basically a rapid rise yeast. One that doesn’t require two rises.

kelly fischer
I made this pizza, was amazing. I used a pan pizza rectangle and had oven all the way up too 500 with rack on the very bottom, used only 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp yeast, and 1 tsp oil with 1 cup flour. THANK YOU!
Pam
This was disgusting! All I could taste was mustard!
Shawn
Oh darn! I’m so sorry you didn’t enjoy it Pam. I mean… if you’re not a fan of mustard, you can definitely leave it off, or maybe use less next time? Other than the mustard, was everything else ok?
Stacy
The mustard is the best part!
Shawn
So glad you enjoyed it!
Mark Dallmann
Then don’t add mustard.
Jay
Delicious! Tried it a week ago and am making it again tonight! Thank you for this terrific recipe!
Nick
Excellent recipe. I did make a few changes. One change is that I use Chick-fil-A sauce instead of mayonnaise for the sauce.
Shawn
WOW!! I bet that took it to the next level!
Chris
Hey nick you want the same sauce as chick filet try mixing equal amounts of mayo and sweet bay Ray barbecue sauce it tastes exactly like that. I use the the brown sugar kind. Give it a try and let me know what you think.

Haha! That’s awesome to hear! Glad you all enjoyed it!

I found this looking for a base recipe I could modify into a mushroom swiss cheeseburger pizza. I have yet to actually make this original pizza, but this has become my go-to pizza crust recipe. So easy, and so good!
Shawn
That’s great to hear!
julie keller

Becky
I’m going add lettuce and tomato on top as well…all the fixin’s 🙂
Shawn
Great idea!
Kylie
The nutritional info says “1 serving”. What exactly is one serving? The whole pie? An eighth? Fourth?
Shawn
I’ve updated the post to reflect nutritional info, so 1 serving is 1/8th of the pizza. But you can cut more or less slices and calculate differently if you want.
Barney F Howell
I’m going to do this tonight. One question. I’m confused about the mustard.
Kirsten
I made this to satisfy a pretty intense pregnancy craving, and as a happy accident my skeptical husband ended up loving it as well! Absolutely delicious. Thanks for the recipe!
Shawn
Haha! So glad you enjoyed it!

You simply need to utilize garnishes that are normally found on a cheeseburger when making the pizza. Instead of utilizing tomato sauce, spread ketchup or grill sauce over the covering since those are two famous fixings for burgers. You could likewise shower hot sauce or mustard over the covering.

You just want to use toppings that are typically found on a cheeseburger when making the pizza. Rather than using tomato sauce, spread ketchup or barbecue sauce over the crust since those are two popular condiments for burgers. You could also drizzle hot sauce or mustard over the crust.

This was so good!!! Burger/cheesebuger pizza was on the to-do list for a long time and this recipe was exactly what we needed. Fry sauce—AWESOME! Thank you so much for sharing!
Shawn
Sweet! So glad you enjoyed it!
Perry Queen
A very great recipe it is a must try one.
Thankyou for this great recipe i request do share such content often
Kayla L
Really delicious recipe! Thanks.
Note: I did greatly reduce the amount of seasoned salt. I felt like 1 tbsp would have been major overkill. 1/2-3/4 tsp was sufficient for me!
Melissa N
Wish I would have seen the note about reduced seasoned salt. We used almost a tablespoon and it was way to salty! Otherwise a very delicious pizza and crust!!!
Shawn
I’m glad you guys enjoyed the recipe! 🙂

I LOVE pickles, but the bread and butter jalapeno pickles would be out of sight on this.
JJ
There is no rising time with this dough? I am going to make this tonight. Looks great!
Jessica
Made this over the weekend and you’re totally right, those pickles totally make this pizza! My husband loved it and so did I!
