BARBECUED BOLOGNA

Bologna is a popular smoked meat in the South and it's quite good. You'll need to start with a big chunk though; sliced deli bologna just won't work. The cooking process firms it up, gives it a great smoky flavor, and develops a little crust on the outside. It's delicious served at room temperature with crackers and cheese or on white bread with barbecue sauce and thinly sliced onion for a tasty sandwich.

Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

One 3-pound chub or chunk bologna
Barbecue Rub #68 (recipe follows)
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, dried (see Note)
1/3 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup paprika
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon Sugar in the Raw
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare your cooker to cook indirectly at 235 degrees F using medium cherry wood for smoke flavor.
  • Slice off a thin piece off the bologna lengthwise so it has a flat bottom and won't roll around. Score the top in a series of thin slashes in a diamond pattern. Season the bologna liberally with the barbecue rub. Put the bologna in the cooker and cook for at least 3 hours but up to 5 hours. It's already fully cooked, so the recipe is very flexible, but as it cooks longer it will get smokier and develop a better outside crust.
  • Transfer the bologna to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice to serve.
  • This rub is a little more complex than Barbecue Rub #67 and has great color as it cooks on the food. I like to put this one in the food processor until it's finely ground. It makes for a smooth texture but also takes care of breaking up the lumps in the dried brown sugar. You may want to dry the sugar the day before. This preparation is a little more complicated, but don't be afraid to use on whatever you're cooking.
  • Combine all the ingredients in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Process for 15 seconds. The rub may be stored in an airtight container in a cool place for up to 6 months.

BARBECUED BOLOGNA SANDWICH

I know this sounds kind of strange, but you have to try it. This was my favorite school lunch when I was a kid and I now re-create the memory for my kids. I still love it and so do they. I have included the ingredients for one sandwich, but you'll want to make more.

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 teaspoon barbecue sauce
1 teaspoon ketchup
1 slice light bologna
2 slices white bread

Steps:

  • Mix together barbecue sauce and ketchup.
  • Thin with just a little water.
  • Place bologna slice in skillet over medium heat.
  • Cook on both sides a few minutes until bologna is slightly browned and begins to curl up.
  • Spread sauce mixture on bologna and cook about 1 minute more.
  • Place on bread to make a sandwich.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality bologna: Opt for a brand that you trust and that has a good flavor. Thicker slices of bologna (about 1/4-inch thick) hold up better on the grill.
  • Marinate the bologna: Marinating the bologna adds flavor and helps to tenderize it. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, vinegar, garlic, and herbs, or you can get creative and experiment with different flavors.
  • Cook the bologna over medium heat: This will help to prevent the bologna from burning or drying out. Cook the bologna for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through.
  • Serve the bologna with your favorite sides: Barbecued bologna pairs well with a variety of sides, such as potato salad, baked beans, coleslaw, or macaroni and cheese.

Conclusion:

Barbecued bologna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. With its smoky flavor and tender texture, barbecued bologna is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So fire up the grill and give this recipe a try!
