Pizza Burger

I used to order a pizza burger growing up at one of restaurants in the town I grew up in. They used to be known for their fish and chips and in the evening, pizza. I can still remember the smell when you walked thru the door and the music coming from the jukebox. This was back in the day when it wasn’t unusual to see a jukebox machine at every booth and you could play your favorite songs for 10 cents or a 3 for a quarter.

They served this hamburger and every so often I get a craving for one. I made these last week for dinner. You start with a hamburger and add pizza sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese. Then add any favorite toppings you like. They really are delicious!
