Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ lb ground beef
  • ½ lb Italian sausage
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup shredded provolone
  • ½ cup sliced pepperoni
  • 1½ cups thick pizza sauce
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a 9-inch round pan with olive oil. Press dough into the pan to form a thick crust.
  2. Brown ground beef and sausage in a skillet. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Cook until browned.
  3. Sprinkle mozzarella and provolone directly over the crust.
  4. Layer meat mixture over the cheese. Spread pizza sauce on top, then add pepperoni and Parmesan.
  5. Bake 30–35 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • Let pizza rest before slicing to set the layers.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste.
