I'm intrigued. I've heard great things from a few friends. Thinking about cooking some up tomorrow. Anyone a fan?

Fried pickles have been around since at least the 70's as far as I know. Why are you acting like it's something new? Where did I say it is new? You realize there is a difference between something being new to me and something being new, right? Are we not allowed to make threads about old things? |

Quoted: Ok,that's a new one on me......should be good. Recipe? how-to? Take pickle spears (I like em better as spears) Dry them as well as you can, dredge in a regular beer batter and deep fry until golden brown and delicious. Dip in ranch. <que the homer drooling pic> |

It's like making a thread saying that a few friend have told you wonderful things about beer and wondering if anyone else has ever tried it. Now if you had simply asked for fried pickle recipes that would be different. |

Place i used to work at had them on the menu. There was one waitress who ate them after every shift. One day she pissed off the guy running pantry and he swapped them out with celery. Under the beer batter you couldnt tell. Only problem was the celery acted like a sponge and soaked up the oil. First bite and she gets covered with fryer oil (not hot, just funny to watch).
Oh yeah, and i had them the first day i worked at the place, they blew dog. But these were spears not slices. |

I fly through Charlotte on connections for the fried pickles.... nuff said.... do you go to the penguin diner by any chance? I hit the BBQ joint (can't recall the name) in the atrium area where the terminals connect. Sounds like I need to check out my local Sonic and see if they carry them. |

I fly through Charlotte on connections for the fried pickles.... nuff said.... OKAY!!! I glad I'm not the only one who schedules flight around food. I Iove Papadeaux's catifsh and connect in Bush International in Houston during flights at luch time. I always make sure I have enough time between flights to eat there. I had deep fried pickles about a month ago in Tullahoma, TN for the first time, not a fav but not bad. |
If done properly they are fantastic. My favorite are the slices done in a light batter. A tempura batter is the best. The best I have had is at the Island Cow on Sanibel Island, Florida. I was there last week with my wife and will be there again in 2 weeks with the kids. If I make them at home, I whip up a chipotle/ranch dressing for dipping. Together with a few cold beers and you got yourself a hell of a treat.
