Going on another road trip-need advice!!

[M31]

After last years 7 week road trip across Western Canada & the Southern U.S. I'm getting the itch for another adventure but this time East into Quebec City and Gaspe Peninsula. Maybe Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont on the way back? Never been to any of these places so any advice on things to see & stuff to do would be greatly appreciated! Please keep mind I'm addicted to pulled pork and smoked meats of any kind...
