Pattis Pizza Recipes

HOMEMADE PIZZA BURGERS

Steps:

• Combine beef, tomato paste, salt, sugar, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, pepper, and oregano in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate to let flavors marry, about 4 hours.
• Form beef mixture into 8 thin patties. Place 1 slice of mozzarella cheese on each of 4 patties; leave at least a 1/2-inch border, breaking up the cheese as needed. Place remaining patties on top and pinch edges to seal in the cheese.
• Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Fry burgers until browned and centers reach 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 6 to 7 minutes per side. Serve on buns.

PATTI'S PIZZA

Steps:

• 1. Follow directions for thawing pizza dough. I usually do this overnight. I use a brand called Tiseo's. It's really good, if you can find it.
• 2. Brown Italian sausage until no longer pink. Placed on paper towel-lined plate
• 3. Take pizza dough out of fridge. Place on a floured board. Roll out to a 12" circle.
• 4. Spray pizza pan with cooking spray. Dust with cornmeal. Place dough on pizza pan.
• 5. Cover dough with 1/2 jar pizza sauce, then Italian sausage, then mozzarella. Top with pepperoni and mushrooms. If you'd like, add any other toppings you wish.
• 6. Bake at 450 for 15 minutes. Serves 4. (You can cut it into 8 slices. I figure 2 per person is a serving)
