Bavarian Leberkäse

By á-58
1. Grind all meats in your grinder
- 7 lbs of very lean beef. Any cut will do, you don’t have to waste your prime tenderloin on this.
- 1 lbs of pork neck. A good butcher might be willing to cut this into smaller cubes for you, just make sure (as in any cut), that no physical contaminants (bones, etc.) are in the mix.
- 9 oz bacon, preferably with rind and very preferably made at home or bought in a block, not as the cheap pre-cut megamart pennysaver version.
- 1 onion (if they’re small, 2)
- 1 tsp of ground white pepper
- 2 tsp of majoram
- 3 cloves of garlic, worked into paste
- 6 1/4 cups of water (for a creamier product, replace 1 cup of water with heavy cream)
- optionally some lemon zest
