Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 pound beef sausage
- 1 cup pepperoni slices
- 1 unbaked 9-inch deep-dish pie crust
- 1 cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef and beef sausage for 7–10 minutes, breaking apart, until fully browned. Drain excess fat.
- Stir in Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat.
- Place the unbaked deep-dish pie crust into a 9-inch deep-dish pie pan, pressing into the bottom and sides.
- Sprinkle 1 cup mozzarella evenly over the bottom of the crust.
- Layer half of the cooked meat mixture over the cheese.
- Spread 1/2 cup pizza sauce over the meat.
- Add 1/2 cup pepperoni slices evenly on top.
- Repeat layers with remaining meat, sauce, mozzarella, and pepperoni.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly and crust edges are golden brown.
- Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Drain meat thoroughly to prevent a greasy filling.
- Place cheese on the bottom layer to help prevent a soggy crust.
- If crust browns too quickly, cover edges loosely with foil.
- Store refrigerated for up to 4 days.
- Freeze fully baked pie for up to 2 months.
- Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
