Step-by-Step Instructions for Stuffed Pizza Burger

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with Italian seasoning. Mix thoroughly until even.
Divide the mixture into four portions and shape them into two thinner patties each.
Place a slice of provolone cheese in the center of each bottom patty, then cover with top patties and seal.
Chill the patties in the freezer for about 10 minutes if desired.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes. Ensure it's hot before cooking.
Cook the patties for about 5 minutes on each side until golden-brown, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F.
Assemble by placing patties on the bottom half of the buns and spoon pizza sauce over each.
