The crispy knuckle of pork

Perfect knuckle of pork at Rado’s Gastwirtschaft

The Stelze is one of the most popular and traditional dishes of Viennese tavern culture – and at Rado’s Gastwirtschaft we serve it exactly as it should be: crispy, juicy and full of flavor. This hearty specialty – also known in Germany as grilled pork knuckle is not only a feast for the palate, but also perfect for social gatherings.

We prepare our stilts with a lot of love and traditional craftsmanship. Golden brown and crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside – that’s what a real Wiener Stelze should be like!

Preparation requires patience and the right technique. First, the knuckle of pork is rubbed with a spicy marinade, then cooked slowly so that the meat remains nice and juicy. The crowning glory is baked at high heat to create the legendary golden-brown crust that cracks beautifully with every bite.

Of course, it comes with everything that makes a Stelze perfect: homemade coleslaw, spicy mustard, fresh horseradish and crispy bread. Add a cool, regional beer – and the pleasure is perfect!

Come by and experience the unique taste of our crispy Stelze.
