Cannibal sandwich

The cannibal sandwich is one of Milwaukee's stranger food specialties. According to Wisconsin Public Radio, although some people refer to it with more intriguing titles like "tiger meat" or "wildcat", the core idea is the same. A cannibal sandwich is traditionally made with a piece of rye bread, raw beef spread on top, and slices of onion, salt, and pepper. It is a cherished Christmas tradition for many in Wisconsin.

In all honesty, the cannibal sandwich is basically a seasoned, chopped steak version of steak tartare. It frequently includes capers, pickles, and Dijon mustard, and is topped with an uncooked egg. According to Edible Milwaukee, Bunzel's Meat Market in Milwaukee is a well-known supplier of the extremely lean ground sirloin needed to make a delicious and secure cannibal sandwich. Bunzel's even sells salted rye bread for your cannibal sandwiches, and owner Jeff Zupan takes great care in the meat he serves to his devoted Milwaukee customers.
