I like Bologna.

There are REAL good Bolognas. Hummel makes one. Hebrew National makes one.

I like it too, just haven't had it in a very long time as we never buy it. It goes bad fast, too, and begins to feel and smell nasty after just a few days in the fridge. My uncle turned me on to fried bologna sandwiches as a kid and I still ate them a lot through college but haven't had it much in any form since.

But mortadella > bologna imo. Friends of ours put ground mortadella in their meatloaf and that tastes great, too.

Proving, as always, more pork fat > less.

Mortadella is great too.

People associate The plastic Oscar Meyer crap as the last word on Bologna. Not even close. Midwesterners do Bologna right.

Don't like the thin deli bologna, I like it thick cut and fried on the flat top with mustard on top. Mortadella I like in an Italian sub or thin cut and fried on the flat top but plain liverwurst spread on a nice soft roll with mustard is an all-time favorite.
 
Why was the Nardelli's thread merged with the Pizza thread instead of the grinder one?

I'm 38 years old and I still crave Bologna from time to time. I don't know if I've ever had a "real good" Bologna, but I grew up on and still love Wunderbar Bologna. It's delicious and is super, super cheap.

Wunderbar is cheap, and I dont mind it.

Next time you are at the Deli see if they have Hummel.
 
Any of you bologna experts ever try Martin Rosols veal loaf. I grew up on the stuff (Polish heritage). So good! It's like a mild bologna, less sweet with a black pepper note. Excellent fried. It's hard to find, gotta be within a certain radius of New Britain, S&S on the West Hartford/Newington line stocks it.

Veal loaf is good stuff. Whatever happened to chicken roll? I loved that crap as a kid!!!
 
You do not know how blessed you are in Connecticut. You have literally dozens and dozens of mom and pop places. In Colorado(moved from Ct 21 years ago)almost everything is a chain and most of it is very average.

Colorado is a Pizza wasteland. Feel your pain, bro.

Great Mexican though!

Then again, I love Taylor "Ham."

Man after your fried bologna post i waagonna suggest Taylor pork roll. As my old man calls it "the pride of north jersey".
 
Went to Ernie's in New haven (Westville) Friday night.

Thought it was good. Looked good and crust was great. Generous with the toppings except for the sauce.

My question for those who have gone there is does Ernie's pizza usually have a lack of sauce on it ?

Is that the way they do it or did we just catch one with like that?

Sauce on ours was not in the middle of the pie. Each slice had no sauce about half way up.

Read a couple reviews on Yelp most were very positive but there were a couple that said pizza needed more sauce. Just curious.

I ask for a little extra sauce and a little less cheese at Ernie’s. So you probably got a typical pie but I can’t recall it not having sauce half way up. Ernie’s like most is best when eaten there. Piping hot right out of the oven.

Hey CC what's up hope all is well.

What are your thoughts on Little Rendezvous these days? Just curious coming from a local...had a couple from there the other day and prior to stopping I had heard various reports. Take care

Spooker?

This place in Meriden CT is trying to make a "Verdolini's" inspired pie and there have been varying reviews. My brother and sister told me they came up pretty short, hard to mirror that sweet sauce they used to have. But you can go order a Spooker with Deepster sometime to just get the slightest idea. I know you're dying to!
