Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the ground beef in a small skillet over medium heat with a pinch of the salt. Cook, breaking up the meat, until browned through and 160°F, about 5 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Lightly coat the center of the parchment paper with half of the cooking spray. Stretch or roll the pizza dough on the parchment into a 7-inch circle, leaving the edges slightly thicker than the center.
Lay the string cheese pieces end to end in a circle about 1/2 inch from the edge of the dough. Fold the outer edge of the dough over the cheese, pressing firmly to seal the seam to the base of the pizza. Tuck the seam slightly under itself to prevent leaking, then spray the crust edge with the remaining oil and sprinkle with the remaining salt.
Spread the marinara sauce over the center of the pizza. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Evenly distribute the cooked beef, diced ham, and turkey pepperoni. Finish with the shredded mozzarella. Bake on the lower-middle rack until the crust is deep golden and the mozzarella is bubbling with brown spots, about 12 to 15 minutes. Let rest for 2 minutes to set the crust before slicing. Done when crust is deep golden and mozzarella is bubbling.
