In the pilot episode of The Sopranos, the pork store scenes were shot at Centanni's in Elizabeth, New Jersey. For subsequent episodes, location scouts found this former auto parts store that is transformed for filming into the exterior of Satriale's. HBO holds the lease on this formerly abandoned building located at 101 Kearny Avenue in Kearny, New Jersey.
