Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes
Total Time 27 minutes

Ingredients

  • Refrigerated pizza dough 
  • 3/4 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon steak seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup shredded smoked gouda cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup banana pepper rings

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees. Lightly coat a non-stick pizza pan with cooking spray and sprinkle evenly with 1 tablespoon cornmeal. Transfer the pizza dough to the pan and press it to 1/8-inch thickness for thin crust or to 1/4-inch thickness for thick crust pizza.
  2. In a large skillet over medium high heat, cook and crumble the ground beef until no longer pink. Drain off the grease.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup and mustard. Stir 2 tablespoons of this sauce into the ground beef along with the steak seasoning and salt.
  4. Brush about half of the remaining sauce evenly over the pizza dough and brush the edges of the dough with olive oil.
  5. Sprinkle half the smoked gouda and half the mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce, then add the ground beef mixture. Top with the diced onions, banana pepper rings, and the remaining cheese.
  6. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the crust is crispy and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Remove from the oven and drizzle with the remaining sauce and serve.

    Notes

    Let refrigerated pizza dough sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before stretching into shape.

    If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to preheat first. Shape the pizza dough on parchment paper and transfer carefully to the hot stone to bake.
