Braunschweiger on warm pumpernickel, with mayo, mustard, and raw sweet onion are one of my all time favs. Sweet pickles and German red cabbage salad on the side. YUM!

I haven't had Braunschweiger in several decades. Oddly enough, it was the English side of my family not the German side of the family that liked Braunschweiger.

We are lucky to have an old fashioned butcher shop in town. After a buffalo harvest this fall I put 50 lbs of bison braunschweiger in the freezer. Great gifts (for people who like it). Guide lunches and a local caterer uses it at high end dinners. Bison pate!

I like lagers, so had a Stiegl Gold (Goldbräu in Austria). I get it 0.5 l (16.9 oz) cans – about the right size for a beer, IMO. Smile

If you haven't tried it, you need to track down some smoked liverwurst from Patak (near Hiram/Dallas). A few places in ATL carry it. That stuff is like heaven.

Father loved Braunschweiger sandwiches.

On fresh baked, still-warm pumpernickel toast.

With mayonnaise, yellow stone-ground mustard, and shredded warm, yellow onions.

Washed down with coffee and Johnny Walter Red. Lots of Johnny Walter Red.

Holy Mother of God.

Yes, I ate that shit.

Only to be closer to Father.

I hated every bite.

I'd rather eat Indian uber-melt-your balls-off hot curry (this is today's dinner, which may melt my laptop screen) rather than take one more bite of Braunschweiger.
as I eat it).

Father... WTF were you thinking?

I learned to love scrapple (in all its forms) among a shitload of other offal recipes.

I came to a place of peace with Braunschweiger.

Why did you decide to engage is Global Thermo-Braunschweiger warfare with me, your only male heir?

Well, in spite of your terrible battle plan, we survived.

Because giving in, no matter the impact to my liver, stomach, and other entrails voicing my physiological objections, once per year I eat that offal in memory of you.

You suck, sort of.

There’ll never be anything like this in the MSM.

I avoid bread, but I like Braunschweiger smeared on celery.

Years ago, when I lived in NYC, we used to wind up our Friday evenings at McSorley's tavern. Old, old, establishment, no women allowed at the time (that has since changed). Mugs of ale, two for thirty-five cents. Buck and a half would buy a large platter of liverwurst, limburger cheese, onion slices, and bread (rye or pumpernickel). Those were the days!


Took my son to McSorely's when he turned 21, same as my old man did when I turned 18. Hasn't much changed over the years. Still two smallish mugs of light or dark. And a platter of meat, cheese, onions and bread. It was great.
It was also the last stop of a day long pub crawl, and I was pretty well lubricated by the time we got there, as were all of his uncle's that came with us. Great time had by all.

I've eaten it with crackers, and don't care for it. I thought it would taste like fleischkaese, that I had eaten in Germany, it was way to rich tasting for me. I guess that's how its supposed to taste,

My family in Chicago called it liver sausage.

Bravo. I prefer mine with the obligatory 1”slice of onion and tomato. Brown mustard on one piece of bread and mayo on the other. Throw in some lettuce and a good pickle on the side.


Nothing here to see!

My last trip to NYC had a stop for light and darks at McSorleys, great time.

I like to make it open faced and stick it under the broiler for a few minutes before adding the adornments.

We eat on crackers here with mustard. I've never had it on a sandwich before, but I think my grandmother would eat it on pumpernickel toast sometimes (still my favorite). She was first generation (Czech) and my Grandfather was first generation (Germany).

I haven't eaten it in years but this thread is making me want some just to see if it's what I remember. Not terrible but not something I would run out to buy either.

On rye or pumpernickle, with onion, mustard, and a sharp cheddar.

That's some good stuff. Back when I was a bachelor and living by myself I ate a lot of that but we called liverwurst. I liked to pan fry some to eat with runny eggs late night after being out on the town, or put on Russian rye with mustard. Or smash it up and eat it like a chip dip while I watch some odd tv show and drank some dark beer. Good ol days.
