Pickled Bologna

Step 1

Slice the bologna into ¼-inch slices and set aside.  Slice the onions into rings to add to the brine.

Step 2

In a large saucepan on medium heat, add all the brine ingredients and onion slices and stir until combined.  Continue to stir and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the sugar is dissolved.  Remove from the heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 3

Pour the hot brine over the layers of bologna and cooked onions in the jars, leaving about 1-inch head space at the top of each jar, then cover with the lids.

Step 4

Place in the refrigerator upside down for three days before serving, then enjoy these hot, sweet, and spicy Bologna and Onions!
