Cook Burgers to order (4-5 minutes per side on high heat will usually yield Medium Rare).
When Burgers are nearly done, add a cup of Mozzarella cheese and Pepperoni slices to each and allow cheese to melt slightly.
Take Burgers off heat and transfer pan to oven, and allow to cook under the broiler (on high) for 2-3 minutes or until Pepperoni reaches desired crispiness (don’t allow cheese to burn).
While Burgers are cooking, heat up pizza sauce in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
