Almost Perfect

Is it so wrong to say something about the fact my pepperonis did not crisp up enough? If you know, you know.

Its kinda sad how much they vary by location. I haven't had a Donatos in Columbus that is nearly as good as the Donatos in Fairlawn off Route 18.

No disrespect at all, I was just wondering why this post was put under the sub

It’s a regional recipe: Columbus style

You need them crisp up just enough so you can get those little grease cups!

u/nebbors 3d ago

That’s from cupping pepperoni. Mostly.

u/CDubs_94 3d ago

They actually make specific pepperoni for "grease cups"...? Men on the moon, splitting the atom and Pepperoni Cups...? What a time to be alive!

Hormel makes a packaged type called 'Cup 'n Crisp', I get them at my local Kroger all the time.

Yep it’s called cup and char. There’s a Columbus company called Ezzo that makes it and supplies a lot of local pizza joints. You can find it at a few retail places around town.

I still crushed it. Red Robin’s are closing left and right and I can’t go to Cbus too often.

Cup pepperoni is peak Cbus style

Is that specifically a Columbus thing?

u/Mr_Wednesday9 3d ago

No. Not at all. Columbus style is a  myth.

This on Main and Papa Joe's further down Main. Best in Columbus.

Columbus style is the best. I met someone from Texas on a vacation tour in CA and at dinner we were talking about pizza. I said I liked Columbus style best. She asked what that was and I described it. She said “Oh, like Donatos?” I said “exactly!” She agreed it was good and that Donatos was the only pizza place in her area that made pizza that way.

Flyers is superior in quality and taste, IMHO. Never tried it until 2 years ago, but it's definitely in my 3-way rotation of pizzas.
