Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Add the butter to the skillet and let it melt completely, coating the pan.
Place the bologna slices in the hot skillet. Allow them to cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until the edges curl up and the surface begins to char.
Flip the bologna slices and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until slightly crispy with dark spots.
While the bologna is cooking, lightly toast the bread slices to your preference.
Once toasted, spread the mayonnaise on one slice of bread and the mustard on the other.
Layer the charred bologna slices on top of the mayonnaise-covered bread.
Add the cheddar cheese slice on top of the bologna while it’s still warm to let it melt slightly.
Place the pickle slices on top of the cheese, then sprinkle a pinch of black pepper over everything for extra flavor.
Close the sandwich with the mustard-covered bread slice, pressing gently.
Optional: Return the assembled sandwich to the skillet and press lightly with a spatula for 1-2 minutes on each side to achieve a crispy, golden exterior.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Burnt Bologna Sandwich!
