EMERIL'S FAVORITE BROWN SUGAR-CRUSTED BAKED BOLOGNA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Line a large roasting pan with foil to cover well.
• Using a small sharp knife score the top of the bologna, cutting about 1/4-inch deep, to create a diamond design.
• Place the bologna, cut side down, in the foil lined pan and spread a thin layer of mustard on the exposed areas. Using your hands, press the brown sugar onto the Dijon mustard to create a coating. Carefully turn the bologna over, so that the cut side is facing up, and spread the top and sides with the remaining Dijon mustard. Press the remaining brown sugar onto the mustard to coat the entire bologna well.
• Place the bologna in the top third of the oven. Bake for 5 hours, rotating the bologna slightly during cooking to keep the bottom from burning.
• Remove the bologna from the pan and place it on a large platter. Slice the bologna 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick and make sandwiches on fresh white bread with yellow mustard...just the way Emeril likes it!

BARBECUED BOLOGNA

Steps:

• Prepare your cooker to cook indirectly at 235 degrees F using medium cherry wood for smoke flavor.
• Slice off a thin piece off the bologna lengthwise so it has a flat bottom and won't roll around. Score the top in a series of thin slashes in a diamond pattern. Season the bologna liberally with the barbecue rub. Put the bologna in the cooker and cook for at least 3 hours but up to 5 hours. It's already fully cooked, so the recipe is very flexible, but as it cooks longer it will get smokier and develop a better outside crust.
• Transfer the bologna to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice to serve.
• This rub is a little more complex than Barbecue Rub #67 and has great color as it cooks on the food. I like to put this one in the food processor until it's finely ground. It makes for a smooth texture but also takes care of breaking up the lumps in the dried brown sugar. You may want to dry the sugar the day before. This preparation is a little more complicated, but don't be afraid to use on whatever you're cooking.
• Combine all the ingredients in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Process for 15 seconds. The rub may be stored in an airtight container in a cool place for up to 6 months.

BAKED BOLOGNA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Using a sharp knife, score the top of the bologna several times. Season the bologna with salt and pepper. Place the bologna on a roasting pan. Bake the bologna for 6 to 7 hours, or until the outside of the bologna is completely charred. Remove the bologna from the pan and place on a large platter. Serve the bologna hot with rolls and whole-grain mustard. This recipe yields about 24 servings.

BOLOGNA CAKE

Steps:

• Get 1 1/2 pounds bologna sliced 1/2-inch thick.
• Take 1 piece of bologna and cover with a layer of cream cheese, lay another piece of bologna on top of first piece.
• Then cover second piece with cream cheese, continue to do this until all 1 1/2 pounds are layered in the form of a cake.
• Then take remaining cream cheese and cover top and sides, just like you were icing a cake.
• Chill, slice and serve with crackers or chips.

BOLOGNA CUPS WITH MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Cook mashed potatoes and set aside.
• Place a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
• Fry each piece of bologna by placing into skillet and cooking one side until desired doneness and then flipping and cooking the other side. *Important* Do NOT cut the bologna so that it will lie flat. You want the bologna to create a "bowl" as it cooks.
• Once bologna is cooked, remove from skillet, blot excess grease off with paper towel and place onto a serving plate.
• Spoon a servings worth of mashed potatoes into each bologna bowl and top with a slice of Velveta cheese.
• You may microwave the bologna / mashed potatoe cups just long enough to reheat the potatoes and to melt the cheese.
