How long does it take to Smoke Bologna?
The length of time really depends on the amount of smoke flavor you want. I recommend smoking your bologna for 2-3 hours. I personally like mine on the well done side.
The best part about this recipe is that it is blooming so you will have some smaller pieces that will be extra done, and others in the middle that are less cooked. So it is perfect no matter what your family prefers.

All you have to do it take a 4-5 in piece of bologna. I go to the deli and ask them for 4-5 inches of Krey Bologna “Butt”. Then score it in cubes, making sure not to cut all the way down so it will stay together. Then sprinkle your seasonings on top, and slap it on the grill. That’s it!
