Biersticks, Hot Mettwurst (10 Pack)

What are Mettwurst Biersticks?

View our Hot Mettwurst Biersticks. Biersticks are traditional German-style salami sticks.

Mettwurst is a strongly flavoured German sausage made traditionally from minced pork preserved by curing and smoking, often with garlic. More recent recipes use pork and beef mixed or just beef. The southern German variety is soft and similar to Teewurst. Braunschweiger mettwurst is partially smoked but still soft and spreadable, while other northern German varieties such as Holsteiner are harder and more akin to salami, due to longer duration of smoking. The Low German word mett, meaning ‘minced pork without bacon’, is derived from the Old Saxon word meti (meaning ‘food’), and is related to the English word ‘meat’. Mettwurst can be prepared and eaten a variety of ways, such as cooked or fried or served on rye bread with onions as is.

In South Australia, due to a large German immigration in the 19th century (to, for example, the town of Hahndorf), mettwurst (sometimes spelled “metwurst”) is common: it is created in the northern German style and served as a cold cut. It is often consumed in school lunches and as a snack during parties.
