One of my favorite lunches was a simple fried bologna sandwich.  Bologna, fried on the stove, slathered in mayo on Wonder Bread it was my “go to” after school sandwich whenever I had a chance.  I’m not a huge fan of bologna normally.  The flavor just doesn’t appeal to me.  But fried, bologna takes on a whole different flavor.

This “enhanced” fried flavor is complimented by mayo, and makes even the cheapest, plain white bread edible.  So when I got the craving for a fried bologna sandwich this week I decided that I needed to go a little over the top.  Of course it has to be done on the grill.  And in this case, the smoker and the grill.

I started with 2.5 lbs of bologna that I rubbed down with olive oil and seasoned with “Simply Marvelous Season All.”  Besides the olive oil and seasoning rub down I used a knife and cut slits all the way around the bologna.  This allows the seasoning and smoke to get a better penetration, thus improving the flavor.

Here's the chub seasoned and rubbed and on the Traeger ready to start the smoke. The chub was smoked at 250 degrees until the internal temperature reached 155 degrees.

The chub at about 90 minutes. You can now see the slits starting to appear.

All done! 155 degrees internal. Ready to rest and then slice.

Some simple "Country Style" potato bread and mayo makes a great sandwich! Nothing better than making a childhood memory into a kicked-up adult memory.

I needed a side dish to go with the grilled tri-tips we were having so I decided to adapt the Trash Bag Potatoes recipe from No Excuses BBQ with a new “Season All” I received from Simply Marvelous BBQ.  I followed the recipe except I substituted the spices with the Season All.

A bag of mixed potatoes from Costco gave the dish a rather unique color and the flavor of the different types of potatoes complimented both the flavors from the salad dressings and the Season All.

The Simply Marvelous Season All isn’t like most season alls or seasoned salt you buy commercially.  It provides a much more robust flavor that enhances the flavors of the ingredients instead of overpowering.

With the different spices and herbs in the season all  it helped to give the potatoes a nice golden color while grilling.  I only had a gas grill with some cherry wood chips for smoke so I wasn’t able to give the season all the true work out i wanted to, but it came out very nice.

I’m looking forward to trying the Season All on some chicken and pork.  If you are interested in purchasing some “Simply Marvelous Season All” drop Stephan an email at  info@simplymarvelousbbq.com
