A washed rind raw cow from the southeast tip of Virginia. Meadow Creek Dairy has one of the longest running cheesemaking track records in the Southeastern United States, and has been developing Grayson for over a decade now. What was originally modeled after the Piedmontese legend Taleggio has morphed into a cheese with a flavor, texture and following all its own. Grayson frequently makes it onto our pizzas in addition to mozz, contributing a cured meat-y, salty richness.

Our favorite application: Pickles < Spicy pickles < Grayson & pickled jalapeno pizza < Grayson, Sopressata & pickled jalapeno pizza. Trust us.

Tastes like: Jammy egg yolk, country ham, cream.
