Rob & Shelly Marketell grew up in Western NY-Rochester and always dreamed of living down south. After 30+ years in corporate and non-profit roles and having two grown children, they made the move a year ago to Leland, NC. "Working with April Scott and the Small Business Center was instrumental in helping us navigate the challenges of starting our our own business through providing guidance, knowledge and support as we moved through the process. Thank you April and SBC for helping us bring our dream into reality!".
The “Plate” as it’s known, started decades ago as a meal to cure an impending hangover. It quickly became the famous meal of Western New York.
What Is a Trash Plate? A traditional Plate comes with 2 cheeseburgers or 2 Zweigles hot dogs (Rochester’s famous all beef Red Hot or Pork White hot) and two generous helpings of homemade home fries and macaroni salad. It’s topped off with mustard, chopped onion, and smothered in a homemade meat hot sauce. It’s the meat hot sauce that ties it all together! Other proteins are available like chicken tenders or grilled chicken. Baked beans, tater tots and French fries are also available as sides.
There are 4 different ways to have it:
- The Trash Plate – everything piled high on a plate
- The Trash Can – an easy hand-held deli container full of all the ingredients of a plate
- The Trash Wrap – everything in a tortilla
- The Trash Burger – all the sides and toppings piled high on a traditional burger and bun
Rob & Shelly can’t wait to meet and serve everyone! When you come up to the window, make sure to say “Hi” and “I’ll take a Plate”. You can find Port City Plates at Brunswick Community College main campus, Nov 9, Dec 7th & 14th and follow them on Facebook and Instagram for other locations.
