Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Buns
- 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.
Make the Sauce
- 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 the canned crushed tomatoes. Stir to combine and season with salt, red pepper flakes, and oregano. Simmer for 10 minutes.
- Cut the boiled lasagna noodle into 3 pieces and add it to the sauce. Allow it to simmer slightly before removing.
Cook the Patties
- 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.
- Add the meatballs to the pan and cook for 1 minute.
- 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.
Assemble the Burger Stack
- 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 and let the burger cool for a few minutes before serving to help it hold together.
