Barbecue bologna

Roasted, Grilled and Fried Dishes

Barbecue bologna, also called smoked bologna, is a barbecue dish from the US state of Oklahoma, where it has picked up nicknames such as Oklahoma tenderloin, Oklahoma prime rib and Oklahoma steak. A whole tube, or chub, of bologna sausage is scored in a square or diamond pattern and smoked, typically over pecan wood, sometimes basted with apple juice to keep it moist. The sausage can be made of beef, pork, chicken or a mix, and slices are often grilled afterwards and dressed in a tomato and mustard based barbecue sauce. It is usually eaten as a sandwich on a bun or white bread, or as part of a barbecue platter. It is thought to have become popular because bologna is cheap compared with other barbecue meats, and it is also served in Tennessee and Texas.
