It’s a tiny one, but yes.

Not so much a sandwich as a new ingredient: Lebanon bologna.

Never had it before, and decided to give it a try. As one might expect, it’s all-beef. It looks more like salami than most bolognas I’ve seen. The flavor reminded me of some jerky or beef sticks, so it’s been interesting putting it on sandwiches.

My mom's family are Pennsylvania Dutch. Lebanon Bologna is comfort food for me. Are you finding it in groceries/markets near you? (I didn't know it had spread as far as Texas.)

Commercial or home-made, simple or complex, cold or hot, let's share some recipes!

I just made a new one that I like:

Sourdough bread
Mayo
Spicy Brown Mustard
Genoa Salami
Smoked Blue Cheese

I love them, but haven't tried blue cheeses on many sandwiches. I usually eat them straight or on crackers, or the occasional burger. So this was a true experiment.

Well, the smoky tang of the cheese married well with the other ingredients. I actually should have put more cheese on the sandwich than I did.



Bonus: a buddy of mine loves Monte Christo sandwiches; I question his sanity. But one of his favorite incarnations of it came from a restaurant that went out of business. Here's how I helped him emulate the taste.

A normal one has ham & cheese served between two pieces of powdered sugar-dusted French toast, accented with strawberry jam or preserves. He doesn't know how to make French Toast, and even if he did, he'd probably not bother anyway

I told him to substitute a pair of frosted strawberry pop-tarts for the bread and jam. He may have called me a genius.

this honestly sounds delicious. Blue Cheese would be the cherry on top.

I can sometimes find it at normal grocery stores in California, although it seems to come and go at random.

Boar’s Head is sold in at least 2 of the grocery chains near me, and they have it in their line. I don’t know for how long, though- I just noticed it and gave it a try!

Does the Lebanon bologna you’ve had taste similar to my description?
