Finely minced beef and pork loaf, baked in a tin, served sliced hot or cold in a soft roll (Leberkäsweckl). Munich's classic mid-morning street snack.
Leberkäs (literally liver-cheese, though it contains neither in the Bavarian version) is a Bavarian and Austrian baked meat loaf made of seasoned ground beef and pork. The Munich version omits liver entirely. Served thick-sliced in a soft roll with sweet mustard, the Leberkäsweckl became the city's classic working-class lunch by the early 20th century, sold from every butcher counter.
