Uncured Hot Dog

This hot dog is fully steam cooked, lightly smoked and reddish in color. It consists of pork and beef, is mild in flavor with a hint of paprika and garlic and is stuffed in a sheep casing. Around 1800, a butcher from Frankfurt moved to Vienna and started making this sausage with the crunchy bite. Ever since, this sausage is known as the Wiener.
