A Sandwich a Day: BLT from Olympic Island Restaurant in Wildwood, NJ
What you are looking at is possibly the best BLT I have ever had. No, the bacon is not a fancy-pants Nueske's or Benton's bacon. The tomatoes, while fresh, flavorful, and juicy, are probably not heirloom. And the lettuce, though perfectly crisp and cool, is just plain ol' iceberg and not some precious designer lettuce. But sometimes you just want the archetypical version of a BLT.* And this is it.A Sandwich a Day: Pork Roll on a Hard Roll, Who's On Third, Spring Lake, NJ
After our favorite breakfast sandwiches in America roundup this morning, many of you were clamoring for some pork roll love. Well, here it is! If you haven't spent much time in New Jersey, it's possible you've never sampled the delicacy that is the Pork Roll Sandwich. What is Pork Roll, exactly? Sort of a cross between Canadian Bacon and Spam.A Sandwich a Day: Cheesesteak with Fried Potatoes from Jimmy Buff's in East Hanover, NJ
Jimmy Buff's in New Jersey is known for inventing the Italian Hot Dog, but they also make a killer cheesesteak piled high with deep-fried potatoes.A Sandwich a Day: Koagie at Myung Ga in Cherry Hill, NJ
I chose the bulgogi koagie. The thinly sliced marinated beef gave the sandwich a cheesesteak-like feel—all those beefy, sweet, and spicy flavors. For now Myung Ga has the market corned on these fantastic koagies, but I believe the trend could spread, Korean taco style.A Sandwich a Day: Italian Sub from the White House Sub Shop in Atlantic City, NJ
As a fan of South Philly hoagies—the kind piled high with sharp provolone, roasted long-hots and piles of thinly shaved, imported Italian sopresetta and mortadella—I'm always cautious when I see the word "sub." But the glimmering retro neon signs outside the White House Sub Shop in Atlantic City, New Jersey, drew me in, and their Italian Sub is an awesome change of pace.Video: The Kobe Beef of Pork: Mosefund Farm's Mangalitsa Pigs
"It's not the other white meat—it's the other red meat, we like to call it," says Michael Clampffer, Executive Chef & Vice President of Mosefund Farm in Branchville, New Jersey. This farm specializes in raising Mangalitsa pigs, a rare pig breed that has gained popularity in the U.S. over the past few years for its rich, red, well marbled meat. Mosefund Farm currently raises about 150 pigs on a diet of barley, wheat, and acorns.

Regardless of the bread controversy, these were hands-down some of the best dogs on our New Jersey hot dog tour. They sell hundreds, sometimes thousands of these things a day.New Jersey Hot Dog Tour: Rahway Grill
Recently I was lucky enough to attend (finally) the New Jersey Hot Dog Tour, an epic all-day bus tour organized by John Fox (or hotdoglover as you all know him here) and fellow hot dog aficionado Erwin Benz. This year's seventh annual tour featured seven stops and two buses packed with 100 hot dog maniacs ready to sample some of the best dogs in Jersey. Over the next few weeks we'll feature some of the highlights of the tour. First up is Rahway Grill, an old-school lunch counter that somehow managed to crank out a few hundred dogs for the massive line of hungry hot dog tourists.Hot Dog of the Week: Rutt's Hut
Another legendary hot dog mecca that has been on my list for way too long: Rutt's Hut. Featured in countless articles and television shows, it's been around since 1928. A ramshackle cluster of brick and wood buildings in the middle of nowhere along an industrial stretch of a small North Jersey highway, it may be off-putting to some, but to me it's a sign of the real thing.Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
