Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza – homemade pizza with burger sauce, ground beef, crispy bacon, 2 kinds of cheese, and pickles! The perfect way to change up pizza night!
It should come as no surprise to anyone that I’m obsessed with bacon. I mean, I’m always obsessed with bacon but right now, I’m super obsessed.
One day last week I had bacon for every meal. There was a sweet potato and bacon hash for breakfast, I fried up some bacon for my lunch salad, and then for dinner I had bacon in my brussels sprouts. #paleo
I will put bacon on anything and everything. Even cake.
One of my favorite ways to enjoy bacon is on pizza. If you’ve ever seen any of my pizza Instagrams (they happen frequently), you know that I order my pizza exactly the same way every time. Barbecue sauce, ham, pineapple, tons of jalapeños, and BACON.
No one ever wants to share a pizza with me and I can’t figure out why.
Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza!
Anyway, I’ve been switching things up recently and have found myself in love with Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza.
Except no one does a good cheeseburger sauce so I’ve been making this myself.
Cheeseburger sauce?
Yeah. Just ketchup and thousand island dressing. But it’s so good.
I’ve been using Wright® Brand Bacon for all my bacon needs. It’s so delicious and a great value at Walmart. Wright® Brand Bacon is a bigger better bacon so it’s perfect for lunch, dinner, or hey, even cake. I won’t judge you.
So this this pizza I used the cheeseburger sauce, the Wright® Brand Bacon, some ground beef, shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack, and topped it off with pickles.
This pizza is so delicious. My kids loved it, I loved it, there was none left for my husband to try. You know how we do things around here.
