Bierschinken

Bierschinken

Bierschinken, or Schinkenwurst (in Austria and Switzerland Krakauer) is a form of sausage or cold cut particularly common in German-speaking countries.[1][2]

Contrary to the name, Bierschinken does not contain any beer, but rather, is eaten as snack with beer. It is a fine Brühwurst of pickled pork, beef or poultry meat (and sometimes mixed), plus bacon and spices with a coarse deposit of pork pieces or cooked ham. It may be slightly smoked. It is usually sold sliced in delicatessens, but it can also be found preserved in cans.
