Pepperoni Roll

Pepperoni roll is a specialty of West Virginia consisting of a baked white bread roll filled with pepperoni sticks or slices. The roll is sold throughout the state at numerous gas stations, diners, and convenience stores, often paired with marinara sauce for dipping.

It is believed that pepperoni roll was invented in 1927 by Giuseppe Argiro at the Country Club Bakery in Fairmont, who originally created it as a portable food item for Fairmont's miners.
