Bocadillo de carne

Bocadillo de carne refers to a variety of Spanish meat-based sandwiches that consist of Spanish bread and meat. Numerous types of bread can be used for the sandwich, including Spanish-style baguette (barra de pan), hamburger buns, hot dog buns, viena andaluza, and mollete bread.

When it comes to the filling, the sandwiches may contain chicken, pork, beef, veal, goat, horse meat, and a variety of Spanish salamis or sausages. Some of the most popular meat sandwiches contain pork tenderloin, breaded chicken breasts, Spanish ham (such as Serrano or Iberian ham), and Spanish sausages such as chorizo, chistorra, or sobrasada.

The sandwiches are usually enhanced with the addition of other ingredients such as fresh or cooked vegetables, slices of cheese, and condiments such as mayonnaise, mustard, or ketchup. These sandwiches may be enjoyed hot or chilled, usually for lunch or dinner, although they can also be eaten as a snack at any time of the day.
