Smoked Bologna: Stuffed w/ cheese, burnt ends, etc?

[jjdbike]

Hey everyone,

Looking for suggestions, recipes and techniques please.

I'm interested in trying smoking some bologna. I've seen Myron cut out a plus and stuff it w/ paper jack. I've see others just smoke, slice and make sandwiches, what looks best to me is burnt ends, as it allow more smoke, bark and caramelized sauce.

Have any of you done this? If so, how did it turn out? What are your recipes, techniques and suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

I fo it often. I like to slice it, hit with a pork rub then smoke. Then sammies with cole slaw. Carolina mustard bbq sauce as the condiment. Yum.

Looks great. About how long do you smoke them?

Sid P I do them at 225 for about 60-90 min. Looking for color/light bark from the rub and warming the slices through.

I had some prepared like this just last week. Kinda like a spicy bologna hamburger! It was surprisingly good!

Down at Cozy Corner in Memphis, they put sauce on their BBQ bologna, and I actually preferred their method to mine. If I were to do this again I'd sauce each slice before serving. Good luck!

I’m liking the look of that! Now that I have a decent griddle, I’m going to try it your way. 👍

Make a mustard based slaw for the sandwich. Learned that from a BBQ restaurant in Memphis.

Thanks all!
I’m going to try some smoked bologna burnt ends. Two flavors, regular barbecue rub & sauce and sweet & spicy.
I’ll let you know.

I e done burnt ends a couple times now. What’s worked best for me was to cut them into bite sized chunks and coat with favorite rub, smoke low at 220 for an hour, then rotate each piece and go another hour, adjust times to your liking. When they get a nice amount of smoke and the rub is set, I glaze with a sweet glaze made with a fruit jam and bbq sauce mixture of 50/50. Keep glazing and turning until each piece is starting to brown and the glaze is set. This is what my daughter wanted served at her graduation party……out of everything she could have chosen she picks bologna burnt ends….😂😂😂
