Funny thing about this recipe is that in Czech people call it Utopenci (Drowned Dead Man). It is one of the favorite dishes in pubs. People usually eat pickled baloney for a cold dinner or in a pub when they have a taste for something sour. It tastes great with beer and bread. It is suggested that once you open the jar, you should always keep it in your fridge.
