Battistoni Cup and Char Pepperoni - 5oz, Mild

Great product, just like the pepperoni you get at pizza restraints. Perfect size, not too large like so many commercially made pepperoni’s in the market. Sides cup up and hold some of the oil. Great flavor.

Battistoni's Cup & Char Spicy Pepperoni is a revelation for any pepperoni enthusiast, and it's an absolute delight that deserves a resounding five-star rating. This pepperoni is not just an ingredient; it's the star of any dish it graces, especially homemade pizzas.The first thing you notice about this pepperoni is its superb quality. Each slice is perfectly crafted, with just the right thickness, to achieve that desirable cup and char effect when cooked. This adds a delightful texture and enhances the flavor, making each bite a crunchy, savory treat.The spice level is another standout feature. It's the perfect balance - spicy enough to add a kick but not so overpowering that it masks the rich, meaty flavor of the pepperoni. This makes it versatile for various palates and suitable for a range of dishes, from pizzas to charcuterie boards.Moreover, the flavor profile of Battistoni's pepperoni is complex and satisfying. There's a depth to the taste that comes from high-quality ingredients and expert seasoning. It's a noticeable step up from your average pepperoni, offering a gourmet experience right in your kitchen.Cooking with this pepperoni is a joy. It crisps up beautifully, with the edges curling into small cups that capture its own rendered fat, adding an extra layer of flavor to your pizzas or appetizers. Whether used as a topping or enjoyed on its own, it's consistently delicious and satisfying.

These tasted great and charred perfectly.

Wonderful. The cup & crisp is wonderful (at 550F). Taste is great. My Saint Berdoodle helped himself to the package as I let my son know that his pizza was ready. So, dogs seem to like this goodness as much as humans.

thee best pepperoni i ever had. 100% better than hormels cup n char. no wonder all the pizza restaurants in buffalo use it !!!

I was skeptical -- This is an unknown (to me) brand that advertises itself as spicy.Is it good? Yes, it is really good.Is it spicy? Yes, but mildly spicy. I'm very much a spicy-hot wimp and I had no problem with this pepperoni.Were there enough slices in the bag? Yes. I was able to make 4 personal pizzas each with a lot of pepperoni on them.Would I buy it again? Absolutely yes. This one's a winner.

Excellent for pizza making

Definitely a high quality pepperoni with tons of flavor. I would give it higher stars if the collagen casing wasn't still on it. The pepperoni comes pre sliced. However, when taking from the bag and dispersing onto your pizza, the outside skin begins to peel. Resulting in the slices hanging from the stringy casing. I just peel each slice now before using it.
