I've got a ham in the oven. I'll add some mac and cheese and green beans. What's everyone else doing?
Thank you for the German word for this. It's used a lot in Denmark, where it's called "hamburgerryg". That means Hamburger back. I guess the Danes learned it from Germans from Hamburg.We found a butcher that can make Kassler (smoked pork loin) just like in the area of the Black Forest where Mrs Dawg is from.
Sooo.... we had Kassler with Sauerkraut and pan fried potatoes. Just like back home as Mrs Dawg says.

So, is your butcher German? Is it a German butcher shop? I've been looking for a source for years. I even considered trying to make it myself. I lurk occasionally on a Danish grilling forum and they do lots of cold smoking there, so I could find a recipe and instructions.
Does that ever get served with a mustard sauce?
Danes don't always use mustard sauce.Yes the butcher is from Germany, just outside of Dusseldorf. His wife is Dutch from around Arnhem. Their meats are the closest we have found to actually shopping in Germany.

Served with mustard sauce?? I love it, but my family is from the Dortmund area where it is a normal accompaniment. Mrs Dawg is from the Black Forest where mustard would be frowned upon with Kassler.
+1. Glad you liked them. Whenever I make them, I'm taken back to duck hunting season and time spent with my cousins and grandparents. The smell of peat bogs burning does the same thing .Bowl of cereal, I've swapped lunch for dinner. We had CWS's Grandma's Swedish Meatballs for lunch over egg noodles, very good. A keeper recipe.

Not sure how far this place is from you.Danes don't always use mustard sauce.
I used Google maps. According to the directions from my house, it would take 6 hours and 10 minutes to drive to Hoffman's. I guess I'll ask on Chowhound if anyone knows of a good German butcher in Greater Montreal
