Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil. (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Partially slice the salami crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices, being careful not to cut all the way through to the bottom. This creates a 'fan' effect. Place salami in the prepared baking dish. (10 minutes)

03

Step
1 hrs

Bake the salami for 1 hour. Carefully drain off any rendered grease from the baking dish. (60 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and barbecue sauce until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth. (5 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Pour approximately 2 cups of the barbecue sauce mixture over the salami, ensuring it gets into the slices. Reserve the remaining sauce for basting. (2 minutes)

06

Step
45 mins

Return the salami to the oven and bake for an additional 45 minutes, basting occasionally with the reserved sauce every 15 minutes, to build up a rich, flavorful glaze. (45 minutes)

07

Step

Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Transfer the baked salami to a platter and provide a sharp knife for guests to slice their own portions. Serve with an assortment of crackers or crusty bread.

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the barbecue sauce mixture.
If your salami is particularly fatty, you may need to drain off the grease more than once during the initial baking period.
The reserved barbecue sauce can also be served on the side for dipping.
Ensure the foil is well-lined for easier cleanup, as the sugars can caramelize and stick to the pan.
