Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 1 lb Ground Beef Adds protein and hearty flavor; substitute with ground turkey for a lighter option.
  • 1 lb Sausage Contributes richness and spice; omit for a beef-only version or use a veggie substitute.
  • Pepperoni Provides a classic smoky flavor; can be replaced with turkey pepperoni or omitted for a milder taste.
  • 1 cup Pizza Sauce Adds moisture and flavor; a homemade or store-bought variety works well.
For the Cheeses
  • 2 cups Mozzarella Cheese The main cheese for melty texture; provolone or cheddar can also enhance the flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese Offers a crisp cheesy crust; it's optional but recommended for deeper flavor.
For the Crust
  • 1 package Pie Dough Forms the base; store-bought is convenient, but homemade can add a personal touch.
For Cooking
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil Used for cooking meat; any cooking oil can serve as a substitute.

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Skillet
  • Deep-Dish Pan
  • fork

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and soften the store-bought pie dough at room temperature, then press it into a deep-dish pan. Prick the bottom with a fork and pre-bake the crust for 10 minutes until lightly golden.
  2. In a skillet, heat a splash of olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and sausage, seasoning with salt and pepper. Brown the meats for about 7-10 minutes. Once fully cooked, drain any excess grease.
  3. Spread a layer of pizza sauce evenly across the bottom of the pre-baked pie crust, then add mozzarella cheese, followed by the cooked meat mixture, another layer of pizza sauce, and finish with pepperoni and Parmesan on top.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and golden brown. Let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
  5. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired before serving.
