New Jersey Deli Recognized For Best Breakfast Sandwich
A great breakfast sandwich can simply set you on course for great day. Whether you are sitting at your local establishment or grabbing one to go, a sandwich in the morning can serve as a nutritious meal and a mood-enhancer. Recognizing this 24/7 Tempo recently detailed the best breakfast sandwich in every state.
In New Jersey, it’s Taylor ham, egg and cheese. Why look elsewhere? However, what 24/7 Tempo’s feature explains is exactly where you need to go to score the best one in the state. In New Jersey, it’s in Asbury Park at Frank’s Deli.
“Often the best breakfast sandwiches reflect local tastes or ingredients,” they said. This certainly adds to what makes this fan-favorite food so popular. There are, however, additional components worth mentioning. First, we find each entry does obviously have some sort of bread base. Either a bagel, roll, English muffin or bread option. 24/7 did clarify that a breakfast burrito, wrap or taco is not applicable here.
In addition, an egg or two is almost always present in a breakfast sandwich. From there, that’s when chefs and restaurants alike can get crafty and cook up a hot handheld item that you return for. So, maybe this is a relatively inexpensive item that you still pay cash for. You unwrap the tinfoil, maybe pour on some pepper, with a side of ketchup to dip, and you’re on your way.
The Best Breakfast Sandwich Is A Pork Roll, Egg and Cheese at Frank’s Deli
First things first. Let’s not make this into a pork roll vs. Taylor ham debate. Though it can be justified, this breakfast sandwich is listed as “Pork Roll” on Frank’s Deli’s menu, so in this case, that’s what it is. Typically, this is served on a traditional round roll.
You pack this sandwich right off the flat-top grill into a lunch-style bag. Quickly throw in a pile of small napkins, maybe grab a small coffee, and your day is off to an exciting New Jersey start.
Redrafting Each Of The Giants First Round Picks The Past 5 Years
This is the time of year when sports talk starts to get dominated by NFL draft talk. Speculation and theories galore factor into analysts’ suggestions on who each time will or should take. Here, we will “redraft” all of the Giants first round picks of the past five years. The team is an important spot this year, with high hopes that they will get it right and set the franchise up for future success.
Let’s face it: it’s been a tumultuous ride since the GMen last won the Super Bowl in 2012. It has been a roller coaster of sorts, where certain players have unexpectedly succeeded, and many have not met expectations. What’s unique about analyzing the top picks since 2019 is that it covers different front office staffs. Dave Gettleman was the team’s General Manager from 2018 to 2021. Joe Schoen then took over in 2022. In addition, the past five years have seen three different head coaches. Pat Shurmur and Joe Judge each had less-than-successful two-year runs before Brian Daboll came in.
Of course, much of the draft discussion revolves around quarterbacks. The Giants are no exception to this. In fact, what to do with often-injured Daniel Jones is one of the two primary topics this off-season (the other being Saquon Barkley).
Our Redrafting Guidelines
As acting GM from 2019 on, this exercise considers the success players have had in the NFL over the past five seasons. It’s important to note that each player listed below that we are saying the Giants should have selected was drafted after the choice they actually made. In other words, the Giants passed on each of these players.
Now, with the NFL combine underway, pro days coming up, and prospective meetings, there is a ton of due diligence that goes into each team’s draft process. While no team bats a thousand each year, the preparation the organization does pre-draft is essential to creating a plan that is best for the team. Furthermore, the GM and player personnel departments need to be ready to adjust and make quick decisions based on what happened in the current draft before their pick. This is where the Giants fell short (mostly in the Gettleman days) in years past, and had to make a panic move.
Nonetheless, as we wait for this year’s big draft day in Detroit, here are our Giants 1st round redraft picks from the five previous years. Imagine this: the Giants could have had Justin Herbert passing to Garrett Wilson, with Micah Parson patrolling the defense.
