Publix saved the day. Kids loved it. Did a taste experiment with two different pepperonis. So, Publix always has fresh pizza dough in the bakery area. I grabbed two, grabbed some basil pasta sauce, and plenty of cheese and pepperoni. Threw the dough on the counter for 2 hours to rise...
Pandemic prices were at 8.99/lb. just swung through there for more beer and spices. They had brisket at 2.79/lb. grabbed a 16 pounder for a Sunday cook this weekend. Glad to see the meat back in stock and at decent prices again.
