Leslie Knope may be a waffle fanatic but we think the man’s man Ron Swanson would be happy with our meaty toppings.
Pizza Pairing: To placate the Ron Swanson in your party, we recommend the large Sicilian with all meat toppings (meatballs, pepperoni, sausage, ham, and bacon). For a health nut like City Manager Chris Traeger, go with wheat crust with all veggie toppings (bell peppers, mushrooms, olives, onions, and tomatoes).
