"A multi-generational family bakery dating back to 1957, this McCook establishment is known for bierocs—savory yeasted pastries filled with seasoned ground beef and cabbage or sauerkraut that trace to 19th-century German-speaking Russian immigrants—and has been run by the fourth generation of Sehnert bakers since 1991; the pastry is described by the James Beard Foundation as integral to Nebraska culture much like Husker football." - Lyndsey Matthews
