BBQ'd Bologna Sandwich

This is awesome to make and eat... right here.

Just make sure it's beef Bologna, and that you leave the sleeve on during the smoking.
Poke plenty of holes in the sleeve.

You'll need to get this at the deli counter.

Enjoy!!!

BBQ Bologna Sandwich

1 (3-pound) beef Bologna.
1 cup canola oil.
1 loaf Texas toast, sliced 1-inch thick.
Prepared Cole slaw, for topping.
Your favorite BBQ sauce.

Prepare a smoker. ( or your grill for indirect cooking)

Leave sleeve around Bologna, using a large, 2-pronged fork, poke several holes into Bologna.
Place Bologna in the smoker and smoke (hickory or pecan) for 3 hours (at 250 to 275) over indirect heat, or until ends of Bologna start to swell.

Pour oil into a heavy bottomed medium-size frying pan. Heat oil to 350 degrees F.

Cut Bologna into 1/2-inch to 1-inch thick slices and notching 4 times.

When oil is hot, fry Bologna slices, 1 at a time, for 1 to 2 minutes each, turning once.
(It's better if you can deep fry them for 1 to 2 mins.)

Remove each slice to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Place each slice of Bologna between 2 pieces of Texas toast, first topping with BBQ sauce, and then with a small scoop of Cole slaw.

Then slice the sandwich in half.

Have plenty of napkins handy.
