Combine the butter and garlic salt until the garlic salt is well distributed throughout the butter. Spread the butter mixture equally on the cut sides of the roll.

Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat and brown the bun pieces for 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden. Remove the roll from the pan and set it aside.

Place 2 to 4 slices of bologna on a frying pan so that they fit without overlapping. Sear the bologna for about 1 minute per side or until lightly browned.

Remove the bologna from the pan and set the slices aside. Continue cooking more slices as needed.

Assemble the sandwich: Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom bun. Place the fried bologna slices on top, folding the slices for height or placing them with the folded sides facing different directions for the best layered effect.

Top the warm bologna with the white sharp cheddar cheese. Add the lettuce leaves and sliced red onion.

Spread 1 tablespoon of the Dijon mustard on the top half of the ciabatta roll. Close the sandwich and enjoy!
