Fried Bologna Sandwich

This was something that we used to get at a little diner at Standish, Michigan on the way Up North. It was that or a burger or the special. At 8 -years-old, I was a bologna guy. The bologna was cut a quarter inch thick. The bread choices were white or whole wheat. Now, the cheese was always American and served with a tomato. Fries on the side. Now my upgrades: deli mustard, brioche bread, pickle planks, and smoked cheddar cheese. I also used mortadella which leaves Oscar Meyer in the dust. Fries are still on the side. I hope you like it.

2 1/4 inch slices mortadella
4 slices smoked cheddar
Deli mustard
Pickle planks
1 heirloom tomato, sliced
4 slices brioche

In a skillet on medium heat spray cooking oil.

Cut 1/4 inch slits in bologna every 2 inches to prevent curling.

Add bologna to pan and cook until brown on each side.

Top with two slices of cheese.

Toast bread.

Assembly:
Toast
Deli mustard
Tomato slice
Bologna with cheese
Pickle
Dijon
Toast

    Here in North Alabama (and maybe other places in the South), pit masters will smoke a chub of bologna. They sell it sliced by the pound or you can buy a chub, 1/2 chub or 1/4 chub. It is delicious!

    I ate these a lot as a kid, but mine were a bit more primitive.
