  1. There is only one way to check if it’s a true Leberkäsebrötchen: Post it on r/leberkasverbrechen

  2. Nice work. In Germany we call this „Döner des kleinen Mannes“

  3. When a German neighbor saw me eating white bread, his reaction was, ‘Are you crazy?’.

    1. Grind all (except the ice) down to the smallest die.
    2. Move to the stand mixer and knead for 10 minutes adding ice a little at a time while increasing speed.
    3. Move the grind to a well oiled loaf pan.

  5. Delicious! At a gas station near Wittighausen, they sell this bread with ham or pork. It’s simply perfect! 👌😍

  6. Where the fucking senf broooo!? I remember in middle school I would eat this every day with ketchup. It was heaven. We don’t have leberkase here in the USA 🥹🥹🥹🥹

  7. The stand at the Globus in Kaiserslautern is one of my favs.
