Deep Hamburger Beef Sausage & Pepperoni Pie

Step 5: Add pepperoni

Stir in the pepperoni slices, mixing them evenly throughout the meat filling. As they warm, the pepperoni releases its rich, slightly smoky flavor into the mixture.

Remove the skillet from heat once everything is well combined.

Step 6: Assemble the pie

Spoon the hot meat mixture into the prepared deep-dish pie crust, spreading it evenly.

Next, sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese generously over the top. The cheese will melt into a golden, bubbly layer during baking.

If desired, place a few extra pepperoni slices on top for a pizza-style appearance.

Step 7: Bake the pie

Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes.

You’ll know it’s ready when:

• The crust is golden brown
• The cheese is melted and bubbly
• The filling is hot and slightly bubbling at the edges

If the crust edges start browning too quickly, you can loosely cover them with foil.

Step 8: Rest and serve

Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to rest for about 10 minutes. This helps the filling set slightly so the slices hold together.

Garnish with fresh parsley for color if desired, then slice and serve.

Serving Suggestions

Deep Hamburger Beef Sausage & Pepperoni Pie pairs wonderfully with:

• A crisp green salad
• Garlic bread
• Roasted vegetables
• Pickles or coleslaw for contrast

Because it’s so hearty, even a small slice is satisfying.

Tips for the Best Pie

Use quality meats: Good sausage and pepperoni greatly enhance the flavor.

Don’t skip the resting time: Letting the pie cool slightly makes it easier to cut clean slices.

Add extra vegetables: Mushrooms, olives, or jalapeños can be added for more flavor.

Make it extra cheesy: Add a layer of cheese inside the filling as well as on top.

Storage and Reheating

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

To reheat:

• Oven: 350°F (175°C) for about 10–15 minutes
• Microwave: 1–2 minutes per slice

The pie can also be frozen for up to 2 months if wrapped tightly.
