Like any good northern New Jerseyan, my go-to egg sandwich order is a Taylor, egg, and cheese. Taylor is New Jersey slang for Taylor ham, which in turn is New Jersey slang for pork roll, which is the greatest breakfast meat of all time. Southern New Jerseyans refer to it exclusively as pork roll, which is a debate for another day, because the operative word in all of this is: order.
I order TECs at Jewish delis and bodegas and markets. But you’d never find me making one at home.
