Baloney Bologna Gravy Recipes

BALONEY / BOLOGNA GRAVY

Steps:

• Take your Bologna and cut all 6-7 pieces at the same time, in about 1 inch squares.
• Put oil in pan and lightly brown Bologna.
• Add flour to thicken the oil, it is really hard to say exactly how much flour, it is just like making any other gravy.
• I also add the pepper, we like alot of pepper in ours, it just depends on your taste.
• I take the milk and water in the same glass and slowly pour it into the pan, stirring constantly until you have gravy.
• Serve over bisquits, with a couple of fried eggs on the side, and you got yourself one good breakfast.

THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE BOLOGNA

Steps:

• Brush one side of each piece of bread with the butter. Cook on the buttered sides on a griddle on medium-low heat until golden, then rub the golden side of each piece with the garlic.
• Using the tip of a sharp knife, score the bologna with crosshatches, about an inch apart and 1/4-inch deep, rotating as you score to get all around the outside of the bologna. Slice the bologna into four 1/2-inch-thick slices.
• Heat a grill pan to medium-high heat and grill each side of the bologna until grill marks form, 4 to 5 minutes per side, basting with a thick layer of BBQ sauce before and after flipping. Bologna is done when there are charred grill marks on each side and the BBQ sauce has caramelized.
• Place a slice of grilled bologna on the untoasted side of a slice of Texas toast, then top with a few pickle slices, a pile of the Fennel Slaw and some fried onions, then top with a slice of Texas toast, toasted-side up. Repeat to make 3 more sandwiches.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the butter until melted, then add the onion, salt, and a few grinds of pepper. Saute until the onions are softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, molasses, vinegar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce and liquid smoke and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring often, until the sauce is thickened, about 45 minutes. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly, then blend until smooth. Let cool to room temperature.
• In a medium bowl, whisk to combine the yogurt, olive oil, honey, mustard, orange juice, zest, salt and pepper. Stir in the fennel, carrots and chile and toss to coat. Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Set aside for serving.

FRIED BOLOGNA SANDWICH

Steps:

• Spread one slice of bread with mayonnaise and the other slice with yellow mustard.
• Heat a medium skillet or griddle pan over medium-high heat. Make a 1-inch X in the center of each piece of bologna to keep it from curling up in the skillet. Wipe the skillet with a stick of butter until lightly greased. Add the bologna and fry a couple of minutes on each side until browned. Stack up the bologna in the skillet and top with the cheese. Cover with a large inverted bowl and heat until melted.
• Transfer the bologna to one of the slices of bread. Top with the chow chow, potato chips and lettuce. Top with the other slice of bread and give it a little push to crush the potato chips down a bit. Enjoy immediately.
