Pepperoni

Pepperoni is a spicy air-dried sausage sliced thin and used on pizza and various appetizers.  Pepperoni sausage is made with beef and pork and assorted seasonings.  Like most sausages it has a pretty high fat content.  That is why meats like this are sliced very thin and they provide a lot of flavor without having to eat a very large portion.

If you don't have pepperoni you can substitute (per ounce)
1 ounce Dry Italian salami
OR 1 ounce Soppressata

3 1/2 oz pepperoni = 50-54 slices
