These Pizza Burger Sandwiches are my family's FAVORITE! So easy to make-can be made in the crock pot or on the stove top. Have it ready when you walk through the door at night.
The kids love these Pizza Burger Sandwiches and they ask for it all the time. When you can get ground beef on sale, these delicious sandwiches are a treat for the family and to the taste buds. Add a few pizza topping favorites, some crusty hamburger buns and you have a winner of a supper.
The best part?? You can put anything you want in to the mix. You will want to add pizza sauce, of course, but if you are a meat lover's pizza kind of person, add extra sausage or ham. Do you like veggies? Don't forget the green peppers or mushrooms.
Now, I have shared a few different pizza recipes with you over the years such as this Pizza Casserole with Ravioli or the Pizza on a Stone. We do like our pizza. Pizza burger is just another way to eat pizza. That can't be wrong, right?

Instructions crock pot
If you want to cook in a crock pot and it is just for your family, I would cook it in a small crock pot like this one. It is perfect for meals such as this. Brown the hamburger on the stove first and drain the grease. Then add all ingredients to the crock pot. It will take about 4 hours on low.
Toasting the buns
If desired, toast the buns before you put the meat on them. It will taste fine either way, but we find the sandwiches are firmer and has a nice crunch with the toasted bun. You can toast the buns in the broiler of your oven. Place the buns on a baking sheet and toast them for 2-3 minutes. Be sure to watch them carefully and make sure they don't burn.
