#### 3. **Fry the Bologna**
Place the slices in the skillet and cook for about **2–3 minutes per side**, until the edges crisp up and the surface browns. If you’re adding cheese, place a slice on top of one of the bologna pieces during the last 30 seconds of cooking and cover the pan to melt.
#### 4. **Toast the Bread**
While the bologna is cooking, butter your bread slices and toast them in another pan or directly in the skillet. You can also spread mayo on the bread and toast it mayo-side down for a golden, tangy crust.
#### 5. **Assemble and Serve**
Spread mustard (or your condiment of choice) on the toasted bread. Layer on your crispy bologna, melted cheese, and any extras like pickles, a fried egg, or lettuce. Top with the second slice of bread and dig in!
