Reviews
This is amazing! We will definitely make it again!
I served this on onion buns open faced. I also used pickled vegetables but not the bread and butter pickles. This recipe was fantastic. Packed with flavor. The vinegar from the pickled vegetables adds a lot to the flavor profile.
Awesome!!!
