This is a good recipe. Will be using this one again and again.
Recipe was a great guide. We however tweaked it just a bit and will change it slightly more on the next attemp. We used “Tony’s” (a popular creole spice), garlic powder and paprika in the flour mixture. Followed the liquid mix except we used green habanero sauce since we didn’t have the red hot sauce. They turned quite tasty. However, for the next try my son and I agree that we will use less pickle juice in the liquid mix and maybe a different brand of pickles. We used the Dell Dixie (my fav) but they were a bit salty and we didn’t add any extra salt except for what was already in the Ton’y’s. I also made our own dip which turned out quite well with the chips!
They were great!!! very easy to make my 7 year old daughter helped and loved them.
Living in the nation’s capital, I don’t run across too much fried food, let alone fried pickles (unlike the south where my family lives). I first had these at a bar near my home and really liked them but they were just TOO greasy. So, I decided to look for a recipe and stumbled upon this one. I made them and WOW they are FABULOUS! They are crunchy, spicy (I used the Vietnamese Sriracha sauce instead of just plain old Tobasco), and MUCH better than the fried pickles in the restaurant and I used spicy ranch for dipping sauce as well.
GREAT RECIPE! A+++++++
GREAT RECIPE! A+++++++
My boys made this to snack on while I was preparing the rest of our Christmas Dinner. They bumped up the spices just a bit with an addition of chilipolte chilii powder. It was very good. Batter was light and crispy. They even dredged a few green beans I was snapping and fried them up. The green beans were very good also. We like a lot of salt so the pickles were perfectly seasoned in my opinion. We used a Spicy Ranch as suggested for dipping sauce and it was very good.
Great recipe! I used Spicy Ranch for the dipping sauce.
Actually I found some grocery stores that sell them in the frozen section all ready breaded. All you have to do is just drop em in the deep fryer. They were called “Mikes Fried Pickles” and were better than most I’ve had.
Have yall tried those Nana’s Own Jalapeno Flavored pickles wwwdotnanasowndotcom.
I did not enjoy this recipe. They were too salty and the coating was not very thick and did not stay on well during the frying process.
Just tastes like a hot pickle. Can do without the salt, all the other ingredients is enough.
