Method
 

Preparation
  1. Cut the ciabatta bun in half and spread butter on each side. Sprinkle with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Broil on high for a few minutes until golden brown.
  2. Heat olive oil in a saucepan over low heat. Add minced garlic and cook for about 3 minutes, being careful not to let it brown. Add black pepper and canned crushed tomatoes. Stir to combine and season with salt, red pepper flakes, and oregano. Simmer for 10 minutes.
  3. Cut the boiled lasagna noodle into 3 pieces and add it to the sauce. Allow it to simmer slightly before removing.
Cooking
  1. Form balls from the ground beef and sausage. Heat a cast iron pan over high heat and add a small amount of high-heat oil such as peanut oil. Add the meatballs to the pan and cook for 1 minute.
  2. Flip each ball and smash it flat into the pan. Cook for another 1 minute, flip again, and top with a slice of mozzarella cheese.
Assembly
  1. Start with the bottom bun. Layer on the first burger patty, followed by a piece of lasagna noodle and a tablespoon of ricotta cheese. Add the sausage patty, another piece of lasagna noodle, and another tablespoon of ricotta. Top with the second burger patty, the final piece of lasagna noodle, and a third tablespoon of ricotta. Place the top bun on.
  2. Let the burger cool for a few minutes before serving to help it hold together.
