Fried baloney sandwiches

[Augie]

I make my own kimmelweck for beef of weck. Would it be a good idea or sacrilege to try fried bologna on weck?

 

I know I haven’t had a fried bologna sandwich in a half century, but if the store were open I’d have one today.

Bologna gets a bad rap.   Do people complain about mortadella?

What’s the difference between grits and polenta? 

 

 

About $5. 

 

There is a place I used to go for lunch. (Note the past tense.)  They have a great muffuletta sandwich. Few people do, but this was great version and heavy on the mortadella with a strong garlicky/olive paste. With a tiny bottle of Sprite and a bag of chips, and a dill pickle of some flavor they insist you have , plus tax and tip it was like $30!!! 

 

Someone posted a name of some tavern with a good fried bologna sandwich and it looked it up. Their on-line menu will get you one for I think $5.70. You decide.

One's sold in a tube and polenta will probably give you worse pellagra if that's the only thing you eat in your diet.

 

Throw some beans in there and unlock the niacin, for an extra $2. 😉

I don’t eat either, so I’ll take your word for it.

That’s x rated!!!

 

If you guys want “real” Buffalo food, let’s talk Frey’s liver sausage, pan fried with butter, raw onion, on Rye bread with yellow mustard.

I put 3 slits in it so it doesn’t curl. On bread with ketchup.

 

This was EXACTLY my go-to as a kid.

 

Haven't had it in decades. Would probably sub mustard for ketchup now (just like hot dogs, which I had ketchup w/ as a kid)

I grew up in northeast Buffalo, and ate plenty of liver sausage growing up.  That is the first time I have ever heard of frying it.

I haven't looked too closely, but here in Canada the liver wurst available is much more like a pâté (Pillers brand is my go to).  On rye, with a strong onion.

Spar's European Sausage & Meats on Amherst Street in Buffalo was where my father often shopped for cold cuts.  I am surprised to see that fifty years later, it still shows up as operating.

Buttered bread, three or 4 slices, fried well. Yellow mustard =awesome.  Was a staple growing up in Elba

To quote others.  Liver wurst =awesome as well. 
 

have it rarely but wow it’s good.
