Clock

Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 lb prepared fresh or frozen pizza dough, thawed
  • ⅓ cup ketchup
  • 2 Tbsp yellow mustard
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (4 oz)
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese (2 oz)
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • ½ cup dill pickle slices
  • 4 slices bacon, crisp-cooked and crumbled

Instructions

  1. In skillet cook beef over medium-high until browned. Drain off fat. Stir in salt and pepper. Line a 6-quart oval slow cooker with parchment paper, then foil. Coat foil with cooking spray.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 14x11-inch oval. Transfer to paper-foil liner in cooker.
  3. Fold down top edges of dough to make an even crust that extends 1 to 1-½ inches up the sides. Spread ketchup and mustard over bottom of crust. Top with meat, half of the cheeses, the onion, and pickles.
  4. Cover and cook on high 3½ hours or until crust is golden, giving crockery liner a half-turn halfway through if possible. Sprinkle with remaining cheeses.
  5. Cover; cook 10 minutes more. Turn off cooker. If possible, remove crockery liner from cooker. Let stand, uncovered, 15 minutes before serving. Top with bacon.
