- 4 whole Burger buns
- 4 pieces Cheddar cheese slices
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 4 teaspoons Yellow mustard
- 12 pieces Pickle slices
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 8 pieces Tomato slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet and let it melt.
Lightly score the edges of each bologna slice with a knife to prevent curling during cooking.
Place the bologna slices into the skillet and fry for 2-3 minutes per side until they are golden brown with slightly crispy edges.
While the bologna cooks, lightly toast the burger buns in the same skillet or a toaster until golden brown.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun and 1 teaspoon of yellow mustard on the top halves.
Layer a fried bologna slice on each bun followed by a slice of cheddar cheese.
Top the cheese with a lettuce leaf, 2 tomato slices, and 3 pickle slices.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper on the vegetables.
Close the burgers with the top bun and gently press them together.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes or chips!
