Why We Love Big Mac Pizza

My kids could eat pizza every night, so I like to change things up. This Big Mac Pizza has become a favorite main dish recipe because of the layers of sauce, ground beef, cheese and lettuce.

It combines all my favorite burger toppings all on a pizza crust.

How to Make Big Mac Pizza

• Step 1 – Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place the store-bought pizza crust on a baking sheet or pizza stone.

• Step 2 – In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess fat and grease.

• Step 3 – Season the cooked ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir to combine.

Step 4 – Drizzle the Thousand Island dressing evenly over the pizza crust, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.

Step 5 – Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses over the sauce.

Step 6 – Top the cheese with the seasoned ground beef, diced onions, and diced pickles.

Step 7 – Bake the pizza for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Top with Shredded Iceberg Lettuce and sesame seeds. Serve warm and enjoy!

Expert Tips

• Ground Beef – You could also use lean ground beef to reduce the amount of excess fat and ensure a crispier pizza crust.
• Special Sauce – If you prefer a less sweet sauce, mix the Thousand Island dressing with a bit of tomato sauce or paste to balance the flavors.
• Pizza Stone – For a crispier crust, we recommend placing your pizza stone in the oven while it is preheating. Then carefully remove the pizza stone and add pizza and bake. This gives the pizza the taste of a pizza oven.

How to Know When Pizza is Done Cooking

Baking time will vary depending on your oven. We baked pizza for about 15 minutes and the pizza was golden brown and cheese was melted.

We always make sure to center of the pizza is hot and cheese is melted before removing from the oven.

Serving Suggestions
