It showed up at block parties, Fourth of July celebrations, and soccer tournaments at the end of the season. Its crust was salty, greasy, spicy, and full of flavor. If you didn’t get a piece right away, you’d get the one at the bottom of the bucket, where the extra-crispy skin had already been eaten (also known as the saddest thing ever).
