is a German butcher shop I visited Saturday on the Central/South Jersey Hot Dog Tour. First time there and everything I sampled was excellent. Hot dogs, andoulle, kabanosy, and metwurst. These franks, along with Kocher's in Ridgefield Park are the finest German style beef and pork franks I've had from a butcher or pork store. Kocher's are 70% pork, 30% beef. Barsch's are 90% pork, 10% beef, which is more in the German style.

The Barsch family has roots in Germany and provided sausage to the Olympics when they were held there years ago. Worth checking out if you are near Toms River. Even worth a long drive.
