im surprised people outside of jersey even know what PR is.. I cant say that I have seen it many places on a menu outside of NJ.. in fact, i had never even heard of it til i moved here

Got it at a local breakfast place in Las Vegas. I've gotten it in PA and Florida as well.

 

I did a lot if growing up in Dover nj. It was pork roll if you were ordering a sandwich and Taylor ham if you were shopping for the stuff at the supermarket.

 

 

Read jeff edelstein's article yesterday in the trenton times. Sorry. Nj.com. I think it was yesterday. It explains it all. You that want to call it taylor ham are just being wise asses to bust our balls. Because you cant admit youre wrong. Quiots anyone. ????? Awe damn. Here we go again.

Ok i just saw the poll. Pretty close. Thats because were in central jersey. Ok. Theres a whole nother topic. Nother. Get it Central jersey talk once again. Pork roll dammit!!!!!!!!

Tastes the same.

.

Erm.. No it doesn't.. If it tastes the same to you, something's wrong with yer taste buds. Lol

Hunterdon is not south jersey and its pork roll here in Hunterdon.

 

Unless you're the Spinning Wheel Diner on rt 22, then you call it taylor ham.  I call it pork roll.  

 

You haven't lived until you've used chipotle ketchup on a pork roll (or bacon) egg and cheese on a roll.

^^ doesn't count because the owners are from Greece not NJ. I haven't been to spinning wheel in a while but I more or less grew up in Lebanon so I have been there quite often. They even gave us a whole room for senior cut day back in high school. LOL good times! 

^^  Disqualifying Greek-owned diners removes at least 50% of the pork roll cuisine in the state.

"Inaugural Trenton Pork Roll Festival expected to draw thousands"

Its official

all taylor ham is pork roll, but not all pork roll is taylor ham.  

taylor ham for me, its a regional thing.

 

I've checked the menus of several diners in my area.

 

None have " pork_roll " , all have "taylor ham"

 

But I'll agree, other areas call it taylor ham.

 

Try ordering buffalo wings outside of the US.

 

One that messed me up was an Italian hero ( or hoagie, grinder, etc... to some of you ) I ordered in VA.

No oil / vinegar / oregano...

It had Mayo! WTF???

 

Or try getting good pizza or bagels outside the NY / NJ area.

Impossible good pizza only exists here, or maybe in Italy. But I couldn't tell you because I've never had pizza there. I did however make the mistake of ordering a couple slices in Scottsdale AZ once. I asked the guy before I ordered if they had good pizza, his response was "I have the best pizza you've ever had in your life". To witch my reply was "really? I'm from Jersey" he then said "well... its not that good". Lol. He was right.

bagels i'll give you.  i've never had a good bagel outside the NY/NJ area.  but pizza, you are far off.  Two of the three best pizza's I've ever had were outside NJ.  

 

Una Pizza Napolenta in san francisco is by far the best pizza i've ever had

3rd best pizza i've ever had was inside Epcot in disney orlando.  

Pizza, Chinese food, pork roll, Bagels... if we could stop with the nullifying of constitutional rights and paying more than anyone else in the nation to live here we'd be in great shape.

That's cuz you're up in Bergen County...  Pretty much New York

"Pork roll" reminds me of too many girls I dated back in the day.

Taylor Ham. Always has been ..always will be.

The first time I ever had was at the Worlds Fair in 1964 (I was 12). They had a booth where they were selling sandwiches on hamburger rolls. Everyone loved it.

My family has been in Jersey since the turn of the century and no one had known about it. We lived most of that time in Union County so maybe it was more of a South Jersey thing then

New York has the best bagels because of the water and how it affects the yeast.

 

 

Who is John Galt?

I am so excited I figured out how to change my signature.

Yeah there's something in the water the further north you go alright..

Harr harrrrr.... The article says taylor ham... even the link does!

It's the pork roll festival with a Miss Pork Roll competition. ;-). Of course the truck that I saw today outside of Trenton had, "Taylor Ham" on the side...

Argh! Hijacked!!!

That means at least you'll have company in a village of wrongness.

Back on track!

Taylor Ham.

 

Cherry Hill has the best bagels. Lots of jews.

 

Also, the Philly area has great pizza. South Jersey is better than North Jersey/New Yank.

 

But it is all centered on Jersey. For those of you NY D-bags, go four score miles north or west and you got squat. South Jersey, you run out of food 100 miles west or south of Philly and the NJ state line. You just drew a circle around outer Jersey in your mind.

 

F NY water. It's nonsense. NY pizza, bread, nothing special. Do a double blind test with 10 samples from NY and NJ, even south NJ, and you'll lose. Simple confirmation bias.

Gah, how do you eat that crap. It's the dietary equivalent of smoking. 

taylor ham, egg and cheese on a Kaiser roll with ketchup!!!

 

Here in FL we can't find the "roll" anywhere but we're glad to find the small boxes with 8 slices.

No one, but no one, puts ketchup on a hotdog  PORKROLL,egg and cheese.

On a Taylor ham, egg, and cheese with salt, pepper, you have to have ketchup or its not edible IMO.

 

Now on a hotdog ketchup is sacrilege, unless your below the age of 5. I don't even want ketchup in the same room with my hotdog.

Catsup is the only condiment I put on my wiener.
