Our wholesale price sheet
Real per-pound prices up front, so you're not guessing.
Your cost per pie
We'll work it out with you using your own portion size.
The two-pie test
Bake two pies. Taste the difference.
Make one with your current sausage and one with Ricci's. Same dough, same cheese, same oven. Put them side by side.
- Taste. Flavor, texture, how it sits with your sauce.
- Bake. Browning and how well it covers the pie.
- Yield. Weigh it raw, weigh it cooked. What's left is what you paid for.
- Cost. What it actually costs you per pizza.

Proven sausage pies
Classic builds pizzerias already sell: sausage & peppers, sausage & banana peppers, hot honey sausage, and a white pie with ricotta.
Your cost per pie
Price per pound doesn't tell you much. We do the math on cooked yield, your portion size, and your menu price, so you know your margin before you launch.

- Hand-mixed in small batches daily. 22–25% fat, natural casing. No fillers, MSG, additives, or preservatives. Same spec in every batch.
- Reliable supply. Made in McKees Rocks, PA. You set the order schedule; we keep it.
