If you don't already know, I wrote a book on pepperoni rolls about 7 years ago. As a result, I have a lot of conversations about pepperoni rolls. My favorites, other people's favorites. And a common one that comes up often is the local gas station. That's because a lot of them are homemade. That's the case at E-Z Stop in Pineville. this is a large round roll that is served warm. Usually I do not get hung up on it being warm or cold, but in this case, the cheese gets all melted and makes it perfect. It was a good portion of pepperoni – not too much, not too little. And it was moist inside with a little sauce. Not grease. Not too dry. this is one of the best pepperoni rolls in recent memory.
