Bacon Cheeseburger Stuffed Bread Loaf tucks juicy ground beef, crispy bacon, and tangy pickles into warm, golden pizza dough with gooey American and sharp cheddar in every slice. It tastes like a classic cheeseburger, complete with ketchup, Dijon, and a touch of Worcestershire for depth. Serve hot for game day, casual dinners, or a fun party centerpiece with extra burger sauce for dipping.

1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2

Fry the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer it from the skillet to drain on paper towels; crumble once cool enough to handle.
3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard the grease. Add the onions to the skillet, reduce heat to medium, and continue cooking until softened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the bacon, pickles, ketchup, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce; set aside.
4

Line a baking sheet with parchment, and lightly sprinkle the parchment with flour. Unroll the pizza dough onto the baking sheet. Press and stretch the dough into a 10x15-inch rectangle.
5

Spoon the meat mixture down the center of the dough lengthwise. Lay the American cheese slices over the meat; sprinkle evenly with half of the Cheddar cheese.
6

Make 2-inch cuts in the dough from both long edges toward the meat mixture in the center, about 1 inch apart. Starting at the top, stretch each strip across in a crisscross pattern to form a loaf.
7

Brush the loaf with the beaten egg. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and top with the remaining Cheddar.
8

Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese begins to turn golden brown, about 30 minutes.
