Bologna Bowl 2020: Here's A Smoked Bologna Recipe To Get You Ready For Major League Eating Tonight

Tonight at 7pm eastern standard time...SPORTS. ARE. BACK. 

The Bologna Bowl kicks off Major League Eating's Quarantine Challenge as professional eaters like Joey Chestnut and Matt Stonie battle it out for bologna supremacy. 

Now as appetizing as crushing 2lbs of bee-oh-el-oh-gee-en-ay sounds, just ripping some slices straight out of the pack is never the move. At the very least, you're gonna want to treat yourself to a little fried bologna. But if you want to take it a step further, you can also smoke the bologna first. So if you're looking for a way to really celebrate the biggest sporting event of 2020 tonight, here's Matt Pittman from Meat Church to show you how to smoke up that Oscar Mayer. 

And if that's not enough to get you going, check out this smoked bologna sandwich from Fox Bros BBQ in Atlanta. 

Smoked bologna on Texas toast with pimento cheese, pickles and Fritos? LORDY!!!

So happy Bologna Bowl day to you and yours. Biggest day of the year, folks. Don't forget to tune in at 7pm. My money is going on Matt Stonie Bolonie. Joey Jaws is obviously the king of the dogs but this has Stonie Zone written all over it.
