smoked meat

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Smoked meat (Bavarian and Austrian also smoked meat , Austria and in parts of Bavaria also smoked meat ) is a general term for by pickling and cold smoking preserved meat pieces, usually from bovine or pig . It can be eaten thinly sliced ​​like ham or cooked as part of hot and cold dishes.

The Hamburg smoked meat is made from the upper shell or the tail of the beef. It was originally used as provisions for boat trips. It is typically boiled, sliced ​​thinly after cooling and served with grated horseradish . In Austria it is traditionally served hot at farmers feasts.

In the Rhenish and Westphalian cuisine , smoked meat is sometimes referred to as nail meat because it is hung up to dry on a nail. In the Rhineland, horse meat was often used for this purpose; in Westphalia it is usually air-dried and unsmoked beef.
