[USA] South Georgia Mortadella aka Goober Bologna
Basically what I did was make mortadella and beef bologna but with the bologna I added peanuts to the emulsion at the end. I used a low salt peanut for fear of adding too much salt but I think regular salted peanuts would have worked fine.
In conclusion, I'd highly recommend the use of peanuts. I actually prefer them over the pistachios because they have more firmness once cooked than the pistachios and give an interesting experience when you bite finds one suspended in the meat.

Joe, you ol' sourdough biscuit! You've done it again. That stuff looks marvelous. What a great idea to put peanuts into the mixture. Say, have you ever tried frying a slice or two? Yikes! I'd put a slice between two pieces of toast with some mayo, lettuce, and a hint of mustard.
Nice goin' pal. I'll bet our friend "Grasshopper" Mike would walk clear down to your place just to munch on that sandwich!
Best Wishes,

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it probably needs more time on the grill!

Hats off to you Butterbean! Any mortadella experimentation is worthy of praise and this one sounds like a winner. I'm sure whatever formula you used is great but
I just want to let folks know that Norcal Kid's formula on this site is excellent.
Cheers from a mort addict,
Jeff
PS - I remain loyal to your braunschweiger recipe. Just made some.
