Beef On Weck
A beef on weck is a sandwich found primarily in Western New York State, particularly in the city of Buffalo. It is made with roast beef on a kummelweck roll, a roll that is topped with kosher salt and caraway seeds. The meat on the sandwich is traditionally served rare, thin cut, with the top bun getting a dip in au jus and spread with horseradish. The sandwich, along with Buffalo wings and sponge candy, is one of the three best-known food specialties of Buffalo. Origin The origin and history of the beef on weck sandwich is not well established but is thought to predate the 1960's development of Buffalo wings by approximately a century.

Wahr may have based the kummelweck roll on a special loaf left as a ceremonial offering for the dead known in Swabia as ''Schwäbische Seele'', which ...
