Notes
We like to use apple, pecan, or cherry wood pellets for this recipe.
It’s amazing just sliced and served as it is but we love to make sandwiches with it.
Take thick slices and place them on bread or buns and add your favorite condiments like mayo, mustard, or ketchup.
You can also make BBQ smoked bologna sandwiches on toasted buns with your favorite BBQ sauce. If you like coleslaw go ahead and add some to the sandwich like you would with a pulled pork sandwich.
Store the leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep for up to a week!
