Not to be confused with pork barrel (also prevalent on Capitol Hill and sounds much cooler than it really is)

Heard last night on Capitol Hill

Guy: I don't understand, what is "pork roll"?
Jersey Girl: It's hard to explain...It's like, if bacon married awesome and they had delicious babies

Interesting. This would appear to be the coinage of what linguists call an 'eggcorn'.

Nope, 'pork roll' is the actual name. It's also known as Taylor Ham. It's a Jersey thing, mainly.
