5 Classic Braunschweiger Sandwich Ideas
We’re going on a Braunschweiger sandwich choose-your-own-adventure and it’s going to be fun, delicious, and a tad retro. We have everything from a classic liverwurst sandwich on white bread with American cheese and onion to my Grandfather’s personal favorite – Braunschweiger and jam! (Yes, it’s true.)
These sandwiches all feature the delicious Jones Dairy Farm Braunschweiger. If you arenโt familiar with Braunschweiger, itโs also commonly known as liver sausage or liverwurst and is an excellent addition to classic sandwiches and even charcuterie boards. It has a rich and salty flavor and when eaten in sandwich form, it reminded me a bit of bologna – in a good way! The liver sausage is fully cooked, Certified Gluten-Free, and ready to use. Itโs also an excellent source of protein, iron, and vitamins.
This Braunschweiger sandwich recipe is brought to you proudly in partnership with Jones Dairy Farm. Iโm excited to partner with them again this year because weโve used and loved their products for years and years and they show up on our table week after week. (If youโve ever seen my Costco hauls, youโve seen me recommend their chicken sausages in BULK!)
