Donkey burger (Lurou huoshao)

(Donkey burger, 驴肉火烧)

Donkey burger is a unique Chinese hamburger that is especially popular in Baoding and Hejian. It is prepared by filling a shao bing roll with shredded donkey meat, green peppers, and coriander leaves. The meat is usually served cold, and the burger can be found both on street corners and in upscale restaurants.


Baoding donkey burger is served in a round shao bing, while the Hejian variety is served in a rectangular shao bing. It is believed that the practice of consuming donkey meat dates back to the time of Ming Dynasty.
