Americans Try Mettbrotchen | German Raw Pork
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 июл 2024
- In this video we finally try the highly requested Mettbrotchen. This is a common but unique breakfast food here in Germany. Mett is fresh ground pork that is served on a bread roll seasoned and topped with onions. It seems a little odd and scary as Americans who don't eat raw meat. The Mett is regulated and has to be eaten the same day it is prepared to prevent food borne illness. Will this odd breakfast food be our new favorite German dish or is it as disgusting as it looks? Watch to find out!

i just woke up today on a saturday and decided you know what i want some raw pork on a roll and so i went to the next supermarket and got it, not even thinking about it, its just normal in germany. onions, salt, black pepper... perfect!
Sounds like a great Saturday!
I'm looking forward to trying it..
Mettbrotchen Wednesday = taco Tuesday
Im german and eating right now 2 mettbrötchen while watching this.
If you like it spicier, just buy rare Mett fresh from the butcher (50 g per 1/2 roll), lightly butter the roll, put Mett and onions on it, salt to your taste and take fresh black pepper.
Keine Butter!
@@nomaam9077 für mich schon...(rutscht besser) - aber wirklich nur'n bisschen.
Thanks for the tip!
Yes and I like to add a thin(!) slice of pickled gherkin on top.
haha, i could watch americans eating Mettbrötchen all day long. Its so entertainy.
me too :D
Thanks for watching!
I’m an American, is it really good? I’ll definitely try it.
@@wsgsetty try it, its so yummy and satisfying
I had to go through so many unhelpful videos until I found this one. Thanks for making a video about this where you actually explain what it is and explain the taste instead of pulling weird faces. I could definitely eat this!
Thanks for the feedback!
If you have a Bio (organic) butcher shop in your area, you should try their Mett. I´m not a huge Bio (organic) fan. But for Mett it makes a difference. Most butcher shops will make you some if they don´t have it ready for sale. Mett is usually used to make the more chunky Bratwurst. Nowadays I drive about 20 km to a farm that raises Bio pigs. Every friday and saturday their little butcher shop is open and I get my Mett there. I always buy some extra Mett in order to make my own fried rice the next day using Mett, corn, peas, egg, onion and cajun seasoning mix.
Sounds good! I’ll see if we have a Bio butcher shop close by.
Mett und Bier zum Frühstück im Wald ist Paradies.
Sounds like an awesome breakfast!
@@trailblazinpeppers a Beer and this is BEST
@@trailblazinpeppers best healing when you have a HANGOVER
It`s not like you can get Mettbrötchen just in a specific area. You can get it everywhere. And not only on wednesdays.
We had a hard time finding it at our local butcher shops. We found it prepackaged at the the Edeka though. But we were warned of not trying not prepackaged.
@@trailblazinpeppers warned from who ? American friends ? They don't know about our standards. The Mett has do be sold at the same day. Just buy it at the butcher in town or at at the counter in Edeka or Rewe. Nothing will go wrong.
Warned may not be the right word. We were informed from other viewers to not try it prepackaged.
@lazinpeppers i do get the prepackaged stuff most of the time and its also very good in my opinion but obviously fresh from the butcher definitely has superior texture
i never heard of a butcher that doesnt offer mett by the way :D but i live in a very populous area in the rhineland
fresh mett has to be sold the same day the meat has been butchered so i can imagine that its maybe too much of a hassle for smaller butchershops or in areas with fewer people around
@@trailblazinpeppers This is right.
You should only get Mett from a butcher.
Mett is spiced, the pre-packed minced meat is not.
The packaging also says that you should cook it before eating.
Thanks for trying it. if I wouldnt have grown up eating it i don't know if i would try it now
my tip for the next time is to try and ask a local butcher for some fresh mett, and assemble the dish yourself, premade ones at supermarkets usually aren't as good, due to the difference in meat quality and people having individual preferences on onions and spices. like you mentioned, it has to be used the same day, so a lot of butchers don't have it prepared on display, but make it fresh on demand if asked about it. that way you can also just use any leftovers for cooking.
i personally never heard about "mettwoch". in my family it's more of a weekend thing, when the family eats breakfast together, compared to workdays where everyone eats individually.
lastly, about the hedgehog thingy. afaik it's some old idea from the 60s or so when it become a trend to decorate partysnacks/buffets in more creative ways. there's a similar thing with cheese, but it's not really a common thing people actually do at home
but yeah, like a steak tartar, it's not a taste for everyone, especially when you are form a culture where it's really uncommon to eat raw meat at all
Thanks for commenting. In the US in the 60s people also made interesting salads and dishes in different shapes for parties. I will try your recommendations next time.
Next: "The Mettigel"
Aka "Matt Eagle"
We have never heard of that! What is it?
@@trailblazinpeppers Mett shaped in the form of a hedgehog. Just do a picture search for 'Mettigel'.
PS ... and it is pronounced like "Matt Eagle"
Yes! I realized what it was after you made your comment. Maybe we’ll make one. Our 4 year old will love it.
raw pork as a hedgehog,salt sticks as decoration
The fresher the better!
Best bought in a local butcher shop (they usually have rolls to prepare Mettbrötchen fresh right on demand).
I would not recomnend buying Mett or Mettbrötchen and eat it in the evening unless refrigerated. And yes, on the same day even if refrigerated. Usually buy it and eat it. Onions are a must, salt and pepper as well (I use more pepper than salt).
For me as a German it looks like you are landing on the moon for the first time. The world and its culture is older than the USA.
It has taken some time getting used to the culture. But, we absolutely love it.
If you live in a country with some kind of food quality standards you wouldn't be so scared of raw meat. The funny thing is that what is considered fresh in germany is going in the trash in Japan. They are in a different league
If you want to go a step further in the region of Celle where im from it's in the north we eat something called "Rohe Roulade" or "Löwenmahlzeit" it's basically very thin raw roastbeef rolled up with gherkin, onions and very spicy mustard ✌🏻
(don't worry about being a harsh critic though it even creeps out most germans 😂)
Sounds very interesting!
"Mettwoch" is a nice wordplay. I worked in 2 places where we would have mettbrötchen on fridays to get hyped for weekend. There is no specific tradition to eat them on wednesdays but its a nice wordplay as "Dönerstag" which resembles the words "Döner" for "Doner Kebap" and "Donnerstag" for "Thursday". So you have another reason to get a Döner.
As an American of very recent German parentage, I am not familiar with this. It is so grilled i to us that raw pork in particular is risky that this is tough for me. My German Grandmother can not stand to even handle raw meat for cooking, I am looking forward to seeing if she is familiar with this. It is not something that was passed down in my family. We are from Pforzheim.
We have noticed that it is more common in certain areas of Germany. Did you have a chance to ask your grandmother if she is familiar with Mettbrotchen?
Hi Folks, I come from Düsseldorf, here Mettbrötchen are part of our DNA! Nice in a good old beer pub. Respect for trying!
I prefer the smoked versions and then the sort of cold meats that come under the name of "Teewurst" or "Hamburger Gekochte", which is the cooked version of the raw "Mett".
When my mom was visiting she loved the Teewurst!
As a german its very funny to see people are scared of Mettbrötchen because we eat this like everyday here😁
1:10 - How do you eat your steak? 🤔
We enjoy our steaks medium well.
I love the Bricklayer Marmelade.
Mettbrötchen need Salt, pepper and onions... NO BUTTER or anything else!!!
Nice and simple! Thanks for watching.
We add egg yolks
In the east it's called Hackepeter or for the Woman Hackepetra ;)
That’s interesting.
Mettbrötchen richtig lecker
Welcome on Ruegen 🥳
We had a blast and will post a video about it in the coming weeks!
Nobody eats Mett all the time. It's a casual treat.
Do you eat it?
Nobody, absolutely nobody makes a hedgehog out of mett. Seems more like a myth.
Really?
Wenn man die Zwiebeln hauch dünn schneidet, schmeckt das Mettbrötchen viel besser und die Zwiebeln sind nicht so dominant. Dazu noch ein paar Bier und man hat eine gefährliche Kombination in geschlossenen Räumen😉
BUY AT A GERMAN BUTCHER SHOP! makes sure its FRESH AND HEALTHY
We’ve been looking around where we live. Haven’t found any yet.
@@trailblazinpeppers go to a butcher
its best
@@trailblazinpeppers well a good Bakery will serve it aswell
my i ask why you are afraid of raw Pork?
Ich liebe Mettbrötchen
Sie waren in den falschen Metzgereien, auch in Bayern ist es sehr beliebt.
Viele Grüße aus Franken (Bayern) !
Raw minced pork? Jah!
😂❤
Yummy
Thanks for watching! What is your favorite German food?
you shouldnt be able to see the Mett under the onions need way more onions
Now we know.
Midget loves it!
I would eat it again! Thanks for watching.
🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
1:10 "In the U.S. we really not eat a lot of raw meat." - Are you kidding me? What about all the (almost) raw steaks and semi-raw burgers!???!? You should have said "pork", but we don't eat that either, with the sole exception of Mettbrötchen, which many Germans are as disgusted by as you have been. I, for one, have never tried one.
I wouldn't try that in the US either, in Germany you can eat it without any problems because there are other (better?) food laws.
Yes we do eat some meats semi cooked but never raw. It definitely was something new for us.
You judge it after one bite? lol
It was definitely not our thing.
Kauf dir mal nen matjesbrötchen ...den reden wir nochmal über das mettbrötchen
U r afraid of Mett but u eat twinkies and sno Balls
