OPEN FACED BRAUNSCHWEIGER MELTS



Open Faced Braunschweiger Melts image

My Mom used to make these for us during tomato season in the summertime (way back in the 70's). Even though the combination of ingredients sounds weird, the flavors really blend well into an awesome taste sensation that I am totally addicted to, even after all these years. I LOVE this stuff! (Unbelievably quick and easy, too.) :)

BRAUNSCHWEIGER II

LIVER SAUSAGE AND BRAUNSCHWEIGER These are cured sausages traditionally made from pork liver and pork hearts. Braunschweiger is smoked after cooking, hence the "braun" in the name. They are best stuffed into beef middles as fibrous casings do not shrink with the sausage. This particular recipe is a modified version of the previous and has much better flavor and texture. The main difference is the addition of chicken liver and beef liver. The amounts of the various meats are not critical and just represent the amounts I ended up with and weighed on a gram scale. You can divide by 450 to get pounds. Source: Jack Schmidling Productions, Inc.

Time 7h4m

Yield 15 pounds

Number Of Ingredients 17

5 lbs meat
728 g pork liver
610 g chicken livers
584 g pork heart
208 g beef liver
100 g pork belly (mostly fat)
100 g salt pork (fatty bacon will do)
2 1/2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons pepper
1/2 teaspoon coriander
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1/4 teaspoon sage
1/4 teaspoon marjoram
1/4 teaspoon ginger

Steps:

  • Cook liver in simmering water for 10 minutes then chill before grinding.
  • Grind all meat through 3/16 plate. Chill in freezer for 30 minute.
  • Chop in blender or food processor. This sounds a lot easier than it is as you can only do about half a cup at a time. Commercial sausage kitchens use a machine called a chopper but we have to make due with what we have. The idea is to produce what is known as an emulsion. This process is also required for hot dogs, bologna and other sausages where a homogeneous texture is required.
  • Stuff in beef middles.
  • Place the sausage in a 165 degree F water for about one hour to internal temp of 152°F.
  • Chill in cold water.
  • Liver Sausage: Store in fridge for about a day before eating. Keeps for several weeks in fridge.
  • Braunschweiger: Dry in smoker at 100F, then smoke for 5 hrs at 120°F.

Tips:

- Choose high-quality bread: A sturdy bread will hold up well to the toppings and won't get soggy. A few good options include sourdough, rye, and pumpernickel. - Spread the braunschweiger evenly: This will help to ensure that each bite has a good amount of flavor. - Don't be afraid to add other toppings: In addition to the suggested toppings, you can also add things like sliced tomatoes, onions, or pickles. - Broil the melts until the cheese is melted and bubbly: This will help to create a delicious, golden brown crust.

Conclusion:

Open-faced braunschweiger melts are a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover braunschweiger. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
