@@johnparnell9488 I'm more concerned with it not falling apart after frying and getting dry. Hit it with heat so you get that nice Maillard reaction, crust, and crispiness. Just gotta be gentle getting it into the pan. I think having it in the freezer might throw off the cooking time and evenness.

"thats just you cooking" is so comforting and empowering to me ... 😊 Thanks Chef John

No one handles pedestrian bologna with more delicate flourish than Chef John. Well done!

Life is about contrast. Art is about contrast. We all will live another day with Chef John's recipes and ideas. Thank you for years of feeding and ideas, Chef John. You are a good human being, sharing and producing food recipes.

What a cool idea, ive always wanted to eat 100 Bahn mi sandwichws in a sitting

I grew up in Southern Appalachia. Fried bologna was a staple. Nice to see its deliciousness being recognized.

Dear chef John, I just want to say that words cannot express enough how much I appreciate your content. It's always a heartwarming experience to go through your videos and I love binge watching your recipes even though I don't practice them (mainly because I don't have the time). You seem like a really soothing person to be around, one with much virtue to share for us and a great human being overall. It's an honor to have someone like you on this platform and I just want to say thank you for all you're doing to entertain us simple folk. I really appreciate you as a person and wish I could have a beer with you haha. Cheers from North Macedonia!

Id love to see this with paté or liverwurst as well as pickled carrots+daikon. Dress the veg in the mayo sauce

This ain't no kids bologna sandwich. This is a elevated adult bologna sandwich. Looks yummy! Definitely going to try!

I didn't realize people did fried bologna outside of Canada. It's the best.

Anything that has fried baloney in it is a good thing. Btw, I could knock out the Oscar Meyer jingle at any time of any day...its been ingrained in my head since I was a little kid in the 70's. Now Im thinking about re-watching Mad Men.

Polishes off almost the whole plate before the video ends 😂 - shows how good they must be

If you live by a vietnamese community, try this with cha lua (viet equivalent of ham) for more authenticity. they sell cha lua at any viet deli

Perfect for the weekend!

I would love to do this but with Cha Lua (Vietnamese Pork). Super delicious

Oh man... my Nanny used to make fried bologna sandwiches for me. ❤

Love fried bologna and these are perfect. 👍

This is a genius snack idea full of flavor!!!

Thank you for the entertainment and great idea for game night or parties. 😊

Very creative, made my mouth water.👌

The universe keeps forcing me to think about bologna, and here's Chef John egging it on.

Thanks Chef John! Gonna try these with liverwurst

This is what happens when your half watching. When I saw the bread with the housing mayo, I first thought it was peanut butter! But since I know how good peanut butter is with fried bologna, I thought that would be really tasty, too!

Very creative! I would pickle the carrots in vinagar & spread liver pate on the bread

Can't wait for this year's chicken bones Superbowl read.

So refreshing to listen to and watch Chef John's videos. Thinking of using this procedure with cashew butter instead of fried bologna. Cashew butter can be a real rich treat, as can fried bologna. Thanks for the suggestions, Chef John! (Hungry much? 😋 I would have scarfed them down, too. Slower, just out of habit.)

this is amazing...!!!

Yeah I'm definitely gonna try these :)

I love fried bologna! Time for a party!

Once again, you have proven that you are a culinary genius I can’t wait to try and make these with some Taylor pork roll

Gotta love fried bologna

Heck yeah! These bon mi look very doable, and my husband likes fried bologna 👍

That reminds me of a song... 🎶Fried bologna, the San Francisco treat!🎵

These look amazingly tasty. I haven't had fried bologna without Arby's sauce in decades....

Oooh, something yummy again😊

These look great Chef John! If someone is feeling weird about the bologna, I recently made turkey hotdog barn mi, and they were surprisingly good.

These must be from SOUTH Vietnam. I haven't had fried bologna in many, many years. As a native-born Southerner, I loved it. On Wonder bread, only.

Interesting!!

Bring back the freakishly small wooden spoon!!!

keep up work man on your channels hope to see more

As someone who loves Banh Mi ... this is nearly perfect. The only thing I think can be improved on is the "sandwich" experience e.g. a bread topper, if you get my point. But man, holy heck, I absolutely love this recipe. Added to my personal Trello for recipes already. :) Thanks Chef John!

Underrated sandwich? Surely you jest, Chef John. This is my favorite sandwich I love Bahn Mi 😂

It looks like you liked them :) I am going to give a try.

You really tugged at the heart strings with the fried bologna. Me Mom made that for me. As a Bahn Mi lover, my Wifer is not safe from having to enjoy some of these with me. ❤👍🏼

What a great idea! I really like pork pate banh mi, so I bet subbing the bologna with liver sausage would also work quite well!

Chef John 🙌 I'll try this with shaved mortadella

I usually follow Chef John's recipes faithfully the first time but this one invites experimentation from the start. How about using some braunsweiger spread under the mayo to simulate the pate I have enjoyed in so many banh mi sandwiches over the years.

And find French pate or use liverwurst (saltier and not as flavorful as the French pate, but works in a pinch).

I don’t like bologna but may try this with pork roll. Thanks for the idea

Just to be badass, you should seriously use Vienna Sausages in a fine bolognese

There's a restaurant 5 minutes from my house called Bahn Mi Bites after its specialty dish. The Bites look very much like this but they use the Vietnamese read and white hams and pork floss.

OK . . . Did . . . Did I see Chef John pop those edges of carrot and non-uniform pieces of Daikon radish into his mouth?! How very special that makes him if true! It sure looked like that kind of motion to me.

you could mix some liverwurst into the hoisin mayo to make an easy paté

Unusual, but probably tasty!

Adding some pate would be lovely :)

There are mandolins that are designed to do this. I have one.

Chef John's lunch today - cutting the ends off of stuff

As a kid we ate many a plain bologna sandwich on Wonder Bread, with OM bologna of course. My cousins fried their bologna, and when I saw it I was surprised and amazed. Now as adult, once in a great while I'll buy bologna to fry with sunny side up eggs. But what to do with that extra bologna? Now I know ! Thanks, CJ!.

What game? Either way, love Banh Mi's! Got a nice little spot less than a mile from the house called Pho Eva and I regularly get their traditional sandwich. With pate, grilled pork, ham, and bologna! Of course with all the accoutrements of the veggies. Would like to try this appetizer version!

What kind of pan is that? I love the aesthetic of a carbon steel skillet and would like to have more of it in my kitchen...just not more carbon steel. I'm good on those :) [edit] this is such a cool idea!

Will make this with doctor sausage instead of balogna

Could we use Vietnamese cold cuts instead?

1:01 I saw that! 😂

I love how little carrot pieces disappear from the camera view as we know it's a cooking snack

Chef John your recent recipes suggest you've been hitting the herb way too hard. I get it. It's hard to keep things fresh. But please.... please. You got this man. Signed, a fan from the ancient days.

About once a year, I buy good quality bologna and a loaf of white bread. Would be a fun appetizer to serve for a game night.

Fried baloney sandwich, brings back memories. My brother an I would put Lay's potato chips on it.

Looks good! I'll be trying this. If you're near Western Pennsylvania, try the best bologna from Smith Provision Co. (Smith's hot dogs).

My bologna has a first name, it's O-S-C-A-R, my bologna has a second name, it's M-E-Y-E-R, Oh I love to eat it everyday, and if you ask me why I'll say, cause Oscar Meyer has a way with B-O-L-O-G-N-A!!!!! From 1973 my friend. 😀
