March 26-April 1

Just a reminder that every week on Roadside Radio, we mention unique web sites and unique places to visit, for example, one place mentioned this week was the "Pork Roll Express" www.porkrollxpress.com. They sell Taylor Ham and so much more that people from NJ may miss, all across the country, via the mail.

When this place says Roadside BBQ. They mean it. This guy parks his vehicle and smoker on the side of the road. I've seen it personally. Didn't know it was a big time thing.
