This Vermont uncured smoked pepperoni is the best. I’m not much of a pepperoni fan as it usually has chemical preservatives and is too greasy and heavy for me. But my son likes it on pizza, so I bought this uncured pepperoni (which has naturally occurring nitrates from swiss chard) as a topping for homemade pizzas I’ve been making while at home so much lately.
While I tend to eat vegetarian toppings on my own pizza or make a BBQ chicken pizza, I caved and ate pizza with the pepperoni and was surprised how good it tastes and how It has a good texture. Adding a modest amount adds a lot of flavor that’s meaty, smoky, a little spicy and salty. Vermont tastes less processed to me than other brands.
I’ve bought four sticks (two orders of two sticks), and we’ve polished off three sticks. They tasted totally fresh and had reasonable expiration dates. This pepperoni comes unsliced, and I just slice it all at once just after opening and freeze what I won’t use within a couple days. The taste and texture are still excellent even after freezing.
This is a pork pepperoni with beef casing. It’s salty and fatty like other pepperoni, but once well cooked it has a nice even color and doesn’t have icky visible pieces of fat. Some oil pools like other pepperoni, and we like to blot the excess as a matter of preference. For me, the $6.64 price I’ve paid per package is reasonable for the quality. Gluten Free. Love it. 5 stars.
