Black Sheep Coal Fired Pizza – Minneapolis, MN

There was a pizza place called Black Sheep that I heard had amazing pizza. I was not able to visit the restaurant in the city during my short trip to Minneapolis. However, to my surprise they had a location inside the airport. I was excited that I was going to be able to check them out before I flew out.

I did not have enough time to order a pizza. However, their meatballs sounded wonderful. They cook them in the coal fire oven, which created a char on the outside of the meatball. It also made them sizzle when they came out.

The meatballs had onions and peppers inside that added great flavor to the meat. They covered the meatballs in their homemade marinara sauce, which had a sweet taste. They sprinkled Pecorino Romano cheese on top and it melted nicely into the sauce.

The meatballs were slightly dense because they were filled with tender meat rather than a ton of fillings. They were extremely moist even with being cooked in the hot oven.

I had to get a drink to wash down these meatballs. I ordered the Sriracha Mary. This was a traditional Bloody Mary mixed with sriracha chili-garlic sauce. The drink was very large.

It was not spicy when it first hit my lips. However, as soon as I swallowed it I could feel the heat in my throat. It was one of the hottest Bloody Mary’s that I have had in a long time.

My quick visit was worth it so I could try Black Sheep. I would like to come back to Minneapolis to visit their main location because I was to try their pizza. Visit them at www.blacksheeppizza.com

Enjoy!
