Peoples Champ Bologna at American Sardine Bar

POSTED: Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 12:10 PM

Note: Bologna plans have been postponed until Tuesday, September 5th due to nasty weather. 

Mr. Nick Macri, charcutier extraordinaire, spent the holiday polishing a new $1200 set of cult cast-iron cookware Le Creuset. What fortune befell the Southwark (701 S. 4th St.) chef, you ask? How 'bout first place in nationwide bologna contest. 

Cochon 555, an acclaimed pork-lovin' establishment in Memphis, put out a call to chefs across the country to FedEx their best bolognas down to the River City in a kickoff event for their inaugural heritage barbecue festival. Macri mailed his "big red rocket of love" down south, and a judging panel of local chefs awarded our boy the gold. To celebrate his victory, Macri and his buddy, ne'er-do-well Meal Ticket columnist Scott Schroeder, will be serving a limited-edish "People's Champ" fried bologna sandwich, starting today Tuesday at 4 p.m. at American Sardine Bar (1801 Federal St.). Lots of Le Crueset Dutch oven jokes expected.
