Augie Posted April 20 Posted April 20 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. Quote
ExiledInIllinois Posted April 20 Posted April 20 Bologna gets a bad rap. Do people complain about mortadella? https://www.tastingtable.com/1029130/mortadella-vs-bologna-whats-the-difference/ Quote

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. . Edited April 20 by Augie Quote

Expand 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. 😉 Quote

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) Quote

Expand 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. 3 Quote
Behindenemylines Posted April 22 Posted April 22 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. Quote
Terry Tate Posted April 24 Posted April 24 When I attended Ben Franklin Elementary on Parkhurst, one day a classmate and I went to his house one block away (Claremont) at lunchtime. Just a couple 8-9 year olds leaving school by ourselves, going to his house where no one was home. Made a couple fried baloney sandwiches for lunch, and played his dad's new album by Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen. Hot. Rod. Lincoln. Quote
