Notes
- Choose a high-quality bologna. Preferably a thick, ring-shaped one to ensure a better flavor when pickled.
- Slice the bologna into even half-inch thick pieces or larger.
- Select a large jar with a tight-fitting lid to allow proper pickling and easy shaking of the mixture.
- Bring the brine mixture to a boil and then simmer to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Allow the brine to cool before adding it to the jar and ensuring that everything is completely submerged.
- Shake the jar daily inside your fridge to evenly distribute the brine and assist with proper pickling.
- Allow the bologna to pickle for at least 3 days before tasting it. For best results, let it pickle for a week.
