Bauernschmaus is a traditional dish that's prepared as a great way to use leftover meat. Affectionatelly called farmer's feast, the dish contains smoked meat, frankfurters, pork belly, sauerkraut, and dumplings. The pork belly is seasoned with salt, rubbed with garlic, and sprinkled with caraway, then cooked for a short while and scored on the rind before it's roasted again.

The salted and smoked meat is cooked with greens and bay leaves with sausages. Once done, the meat is sliced and arranged on plates with dumplings and sauerkraut.
