Ingredients
Scale
- 6 slices bacon
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup diced dill pickle or dill pickle relish
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 (13.8 ounce) can refrigerated pizza dough
- 6 slices American cheese
- 8 ounces Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- burger sauce for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Cook the bacon in a skillet until crisp, then drain, cool, and crumble it.
- Cook the ground beef in a skillet until browned and crumbly. Drain the grease.
- Add the chopped onion to the skillet with the beef and cook until soft.
- Remove from heat and mix in the crumbled bacon, pickles, ketchup, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly flour it.
- Unroll the pizza dough onto the sheet and press it into a 10×15-inch rectangle.
- Spoon the meat mixture down the center of the dough lengthwise.
- Place the American cheese slices over the meat, then sprinkle with half of the shredded Cheddar.
- Cut 2-inch strips into the dough from both long sides towards the center, about 1 inch apart.
- Fold the strips over the filling in a crisscross pattern to form a loaf.
- Brush the loaf with the beaten egg.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and the remaining Cheddar cheese.
- Bake for about 30 minutes, until the cheese is golden brown.
Notes
- Let the bacon cool before crumbling to avoid burning your fingers.
- Drain the ground beef well to prevent a soggy filling.
- Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to make clean cuts in the dough.
- Serve with optional burger sauce for extra flavor.
