Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Thick-cut bologna slices
- 4 whole Hamburger buns
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 4 whole Lettuce leaves
- 1 whole Tomato
- 8 slices Pickle slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Slice the tomato into thin rounds and set aside. Wash and pat dry the lettuce leaves.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
Add the thick-cut bologna slices to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are browned and slightly crispy on the edges.
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each bologna slice during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
Toast the hamburger buns by spreading the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter on the cut sides and placing them face down on a clean skillet until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Spread this mixture evenly onto the top and bottom halves of the toasted buns.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a slice of the cooked bologna with melted cheese, a tomato slice, and two pickle slices.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper on top of the stack, then add the top bun to finish the burger.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes, such as fries or chips, and enjoy your Bologna Burger!
