Chris turned 40 at the end of 2025, and I wanted to do something special without throwing a big party that he wouldn’t appreciate. So I gave him what I knew he’d appreciate the most: 40 slices of pizza!
Our second stop was: Wicked Peel Pizza
3956 Innovation Dr, Riverton, UT 84065
Wicked Peel is admittedly already our #1 favorite pizza in Utah, but I made sure to include it in the 40 slices. They did not disappoint!
We always get their Cheese Bread Sticks to start, they are SOOO GOOOOD! We bounce between a few of our favorites. On this trip Chris got the Buffalo chicken pizza, and I got the Detroit-style pepperoni. Detroit-style by default comes with the spicy pepperoni “cups” but I always ask for normal pepperoni instead.
It is rare to have a less than spectacular experience at Wicked Peel, and believe me, we’ve been there often enough to know! The decor is New York, the owners are great people, and the wait staff is friendly. Of all food establishments I’ve ever been a “regular” at, Wicked Peel is by far the most consistent in consistently providing top-notch food.
It always bugs me that Chris expects me to share my Detroit-style with him, especially because I don’t think he enjoys it as much as he should. He gave the Detroit-style slice I gave him an unfair score in my opinion, but I will admit I did give him the slice that looked the least delicious. He always wolfs down his pizza because it does not travel or reheat well. But the Detroit-style still tastes pretty good when reheating later, so I don’t like to share it! I want the leftovers!
Chris’s other favorite is the Brooklyn, and my other favorite is the Wicked Vodka. Give it a try!
Chris rated his Buffalo pizza a 8.7
Chris rated my Detroit-style pepperoni pizza 7.7
