This is LaTeX, there is always a package which does something
(non-)special ;-)
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fvextra}
\begin{document}
\noindent
\Verb[commandchars=\\\{\}]{Pre \fbox{Middle} Post} or \\
\Verb[commandchars=\\\{\}]|Pre \fbox{Middle} Post|
\end{document}

And this is also the way AUCTeX looks at: AUCTeX doesn't grok the
meaning of the macros and what they do while they expand. Looking at it
this way, url's and verbatim text are quite close.
