A reenactment.

Me: Do you have Taylor Ham? Them: What's tailor ham? Me: How about pork roll. Them: Ah, you must mean pork roast? No.

If things go differently for you, please report back.

You may try THB. Not sure if they will sell you any real quantity.

I have purchased an entire Taylor’s Pork Roll at BJ’s warehouse in the past.

Try ShopRite. They used to have a Taylor ham, egg & cheese sandwich on a hard roll in the morning.

Not at the deli. But I have found the 1 lb rolls at Safeway.

I second ShopRite. They have at least two kinds in the bacon/sausage section.

Giant has them too. They seem to always have the box but occasionally I've seen them stock the whole pork roll in a sock.

Sadly (because it's gone now) there used to be a seriously old school Baltimore restaurant called "Burkes" which was located at 36 Light Street (there's still a pin on Google Maps, oddly enough) that had a pretty good breakfast. So do some other greasy spoons in Baltimore. So what? Well, it's the only place in my life I've ever been to where ordering a side of pork roll resulted in being handed a plate with -- and I'm not kidding about this-- at least 10 pieces of pork roll for something like $2.50! Maybe there's a reason they went out of business...

Used to get a Taylor Pork Roll breakfast sandwich on the boardwalk on OC. I even had a Taylor Pork Roll t-shirt from there.

Replying to EvilAbdy (#18,276)

The one time I tried to get a pork roll, egg and cheese bagel there (the one in Lutherville) they put HAM on it. When I complained they were extremely gracious about apologizing, but I never actually got any pork roll. They didn't seem to actually have any! I have a feeling that somebody was confused about the whole "Taylor Ham" thing.

The only place I’ve seen it is at the Weis in Towson. It was the Taylor Provisions/Taylor Ham brand and it was pretty cheap

Wegmans in Hunt Valley has it.

Bottoms Up Bagels in Waverly serves it, but not sure how they receive it. Would certainly be worth an ask if you're not looking for the supermarket variety.

I see it at every basic grocery store's lunchmeat/bacon section. I think you're referring to Taylor's brand by the red box hint

Green Valley and Wawa both have it, if you're down around Arbutus.

My first experience with pork roll was when I was in Media PA for an out of town job related week. We were at a diner, and I asked the waitress what "local" food did they offer, other than Cheese Steak. She said a port roll sandwich. I ordered, then thought Oh S--t, its going to be another name for bologna. It was not. I cannot remember how it tasted, but thought it was worth trying again.
