Pepperoni crisis

I hosted a pizza night and grabbed a random pepperoni brand from the store. Big mistake, it curled weird and left pools of grease. My guests still had fun, but I learned the hard way that not all pepperoni is created equal. Since then, I’ve been testing brands to find that perfect crisp edge. Got any favorites?
 
Hi @katiepepp3roni! Some pepperoni is designed to curl, which makes those little grease pools. If you want flat slices, look for thinner, low‑fat styles. They stay crisp without the puddle effect.
