Bondiola sandwich

Sandwiches

The bondiola sandwich, also called a bondipan, is an Argentine street food made from thick slices of pork shoulder, usually roasted or cured and often grilled, served on a crisp bun or brioche. It is sold by street food vendors and restaurants, is common in Buenos Aires, and by 2013 was rivalling the choripan sausage sandwich and the parrilla grilled meat in popularity. It is usually served with lemon juice or a lemon and garlic dressing, and variations braise the pork in beer and add cheddar and caramelized onions, or add coleslaw, cabbage or a mayonnaise salad. The bondiola itself is pork shoulder seasoned with nutmeg, salt, paprika and pepper, then wrapped, tied and cured for thirty to sixty days. Burger King sells a version in Argentina called the Bondiolita King.
