Equipment
- Blackstone Griddle
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- vegetable oil
- kosher salt, pepper, garlic powder, Italian seasoning
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 36 slices pepperoni
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- Optional: parsley, crushed red pepper flakes
- 12 slider buns
Instructions
- Cut a pound of ground beef into 12 pieces and roll each in a ball.
- Preheat the griddle to medium high heat for several minutes. Once hot spread some vegetable oil and place the burgers on the griddle. Press very flat a few times with a burger press or hibachi spatula.
- Season the burgers with kosher salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Flip them after 2 to 3 minutes. Spoon some pizza sauce over each burger, add three slices of pepperoni to each, and sprinkle the cheese over top (add parsley and crushed red pepper flakes if using).Note: I put the slider buns on the griddle cut side down for a minute to warm and toast them slightly.
- Use a melting dome if you have over and remove the burgers once the cheese is melted and serve on the slider buns.
