My family is from Jersey so whenever we go back to visit relatives I need to get a Taylor Ham, egg and cheese sandwich. It is greasy, filling and always hits the spot. I have amazing memories of eating these sandwiches in diners with my grandparents, aunts and uncles, and parents.
Some people call it “pork roll,” but my family is from North Jersey so we call it Taylor Ham. If you don’t think there is a big difference, talk to someone from Jersey.
Since you can’t get Taylor Ham in DC, I’ve taken to recreating my childhood in my apartment. This sandwich will be able to get you through a hangover, finals and whatever life throws at you, it is just that good. Don’t believe me? Then read this.
