Secret Menu: Jabroni's Shows Us Their Spicy Side With the New Diablo Pizza

It's just the right amount of hot, but it is hawt nevertheless.

(SPOT.ph) There are times when only a large, loaded slice of New York-style pizza will do—thank heavens for the likes of Jabroni's whose pies never fail to satisfy. You probably have your favorite(s) on their lineup (Team Vodka Roni, represent!), but their newest limited-edition baby is designed to sate the hankering for the hot stuff. Available to those who know (ahem) is The Diablo, a Jabroni's special on the Secret Menu by SPOT.ph and Esquire.

The Diablo Pizza at Jabroni's for Secret Menu

Jabroni's has fast become a favorite for their New York-style pizzas that are big, bold, and perfect to feed a group. The newest addition to their lineup delivers a wonderfully spicy kick: meet The Diablo (P660/12 inch round, P710/12-inch square, P1,390/18-inch round), taking after a popular pizza flavor category of the same name in New York.

On it is pepperoni, red sauce, and cheese—standard stuff, one might say, but things go the fiery direction from here on as Jabroni's drizzles the pie with chili-infused hot honey (made in-house!) and tops it with jalapenos. The resulting pie isn't overwhelmingly spicy—it's got enough heat to bring out the meatiness and spice of the pepperoni, but not overly so that you'd need a glass of milk to tolerate a single bite. The jalapeños contribute a peppery, earthy character, while the hot honey's floral sweetness rounds everything out.

You've got choice of crusts for this one; there's their round crust (P660/12 inch round, P1,390/18-inch round) that's thinner and more on the crisp-chewy end of the spectrum; and the square crust (P710/12 inches) that's thicker and more pillowy. Either way, you'll want to take heed of owner Emilio Ocampo's tip: try your slices with Engkanto beer.
