 jw-> Plain hamburg might be bland but think about taco meat pizza, chili
 jw-> pizza or bacon-mushroom cheeseburger pizza.
 BF> I have to admit that taco meat pizza sounds good.

With pepperjack instead of mozzarella?

 BF> But I  still would like to try hamburg pizza.   Shirley fries loose
 BF> meat hamburg alone for us to add individually to our spaghetti and
 BF> sauce.  I like a lot of meat with my spaghetti and she likes less.  
 BF> When there is any left over I use it the next day in a sandwich for
 BF> brunch.  I love the taste of the loose meat hamburger in a sandwich,
 BF> and see no reason why I wouldn't love it on a pizza.   Just me being
 BF> weird. 

The reason why I don't favor hamburger on pizza is that the
flavor does get lost (as Jim suggests) - I prefer something
fatty and spicy, pepperoni or regular hot sausage. Which
reminds me, it's time to fill up my supply of pills: the other
day, I was at the Courtyard by Marriott, which as an austerity
measure has closed its in-house restaurant, substituting lots
of takeout menus from nearby places that deliver. Some big
black guy ordered a large sausage-mushroom pizza - he looked
big enough to do justice to it by himself, but the kicker was
that the pizza parlor was offering a free large cheese pizza
with the purchase of any large ... so the delivery guy came
with two pizzas, which is too much for any but the most
intrepid trencherman, so the guy was offering slices for a buck,
and I, pizza deprived for the longest time, considered taking
him up on his offer.

 DS> Far from weird.  Just about every independent pizzeria around here
 DS> offers loose meat hamburger as a topping.  And if you love the taste

 DS> and it's pretty good.

[whispered] Go with the sausage.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

      Title: Wesley's Chili Pizza  V 4.0
 Categories: Main dish, Pizza, Original
      Yield: 1 14" pizza

      1 ea Basic pizza dough *
      2 c  Chili **
      6 oz Mild Longhorn Cheddar cheese
           (grated)
    1/4 c  Onion (very thinly sliced)
    1/2 ea Green Bell pepper (chopped)
      1 oz Ripe black olives, sliced
    1/2 lb Pork sausage
      9 ea Medium-sized mushrooms,
           Sliced

  *   Pizza dough is very subjective.  I won't attempt a recipe here,
      just make your favorite dough for 1 large pizza.
   **  NO BEANS IN THE CHILI!  If you must use canned, I recommend a 15
      oz. can of Wolf Brand Chili.  This will work very nicely.

  Directions: 1. Saute the sausage, mushrooms (stems and caps), and Bell
  pepper
  :       until very lightly browned. 2. Preheat oven to 500 deg F. 3.
  Roll pizza dough into a pizza-like shape, and add toppings in
  :       this order:
  :            Chili
  :            Sausage, 'shrooms, and peppers
  :            Olives
  :            Onions
  :            Cheese 4. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Use a pizza stone if
  you have one.  If
      you don't have one, get one!

  Original recipe by Wesley Pitts.  May the Ol' Goat Roper rest in
  Cowboy Heaven. u/l to NCE by Burt Ford 11/97 9/99.
