The Original Jackson County Veal
Jackson County veal is a unique take on the classic pork tenderloin sandwich, originating in Jackson County, Ohio. Unlike traditional veal, which comes from young cows, this version uses a large piece of pork that is battered, dipped in cracker meal, and deep-fried. The sandwich is known for its oversized portion, often hanging well beyond the edges of the bun, and is typically served with pickle. Get your Original Jackson County Veal at these local restaurants.
