Using a large scoop, scoop the meat mixture over both rows of cheese. Place pepperoni slices on top of meat mixture. Unroll the second package of pizza crust and carefully place over the first crust. Match edges of dough around the edges; press to seal around edges and down center. Cut down the center of dough to form two strips. Grate Parmesan cheese over top of the dough.
