The Big Eat: An Ode to the Vanishing Char-Broiler

I have a road trip to what used to be common on the New Jersey highway, a roadside foodstand. Many of them took on a colonial or frontier decor, and named themselves after obscure Revolutionary heroes like “Mad” Anthony Wayne. I found one still serving grilled ground beef simply and tastily, and remember many more.
