Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices thick-cut bologna
- 2 slices sandwich bread
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 slices American cheese
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
Instructions
- Preheat a skillet over medium heat until hot.
- Spread mayonnaise on one slice of bread and mustard on the other.
- Melt butter in the skillet, swirling to coat the surface evenly.
- Cook the bologna 2 to 3 minutes per side until browned with lightly crisp edges.
- Layer the hot bologna and American cheese between the prepared bread slices.
- Return the assembled sandwich to the skillet and toast 1 to 2 minutes per side until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted.
- Rest 1 minute, slice, and serve warm with chips or pickles.
Notes
- Note: Cutting small slits in the bologna helps it stay flat and brown evenly.
- Toast the bread in the same pan to soak up savory drippings.
- Keep heat at medium for crisp edges without burning.
- For extra richness, add the cheese during the last minute on the skillet.
