Impressive flavor, just wonderful, used my favorite pickles too.
And the lady with the funnel cake idea with the rest of the batter was genius, just sugar or power sugar,very nice.
Awesome recipe my best ones I ever made at home & it was tonight. Thank you
Excellent!! I LOVE FRIED PICKLES!!! I have an addiction to pickles in every form anyway so it is long past time to step up to the fried pickle plate! This was my first time making them in general. This recipe is awesome!!! The seasoning is perfectly blended. Thank you for sharing this!!
As an appetizer, fried pickles can be served with the ultimate go-to comeback sauce. We do love appetizers, especially for entertaining. A few of our favorites, such as simple mustard dipping sauce, easy baba ghanoush recipe made with roasted eggplant, garlic, and tahini, are a great additions to an appetizer spread as well. You can also serve fried pickles as a side dish with sweet and spicy glazed salmon, crispy fried chicken, chicken kabobs, or added into burgers instead of regular pickles.

Hooters Fried Pickles are one of my favorite appetizers at Hooters. If you have never tried fried pickle slices, you have been missing a crunchy and tangy treat. I know that once you try these you will want this fried pickle recipe.
Since Southerners love their fried foods, it made sense to bread them, fry them, and see what happened. It actually started as a gimmick to drive sales to the store but became a loved menu item and eventually made its way to many restaurants and carnivals throughout the US. Although the Duchess Drive-In has closed down, you can still enjoy these original fried pickles at the Picklefest held yearly in Arkansas.
2. Use your favorite pickles. I use to use Mt. Olive mini stuffers hamburger dill chips. They are a bit thicker than the regular dill pickle chips and have a nice crunch. However, all that changed with I discovered Grillo pickles. They are so good!Happy Fried Pickle Making!!

Freeze fried pickles in a single layer on a lined baking sheet until solid, about 1-2 hours. This will prevent the pickles from sticking together once frozen. Transfer the pickles to an airtight container or Ziplock bag to store for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
I made these tonight and used red and yellow potatoes from my garden. I might have boiled the potatoes a little too long because the finely grated potatoes were quite gummy. I tried to get as much moisture out as possible, but probably still had too much moisture as they were not quite done in the center after they were fried. I also kept adding flour to my hands while forming them as they were a bit sticky. However, I still had a hard time not eating all of them as they came out of the fryer! These are very delicious, and I will either freeze these tots or use for tater tot casserole so they cook a little further in the middle. I have SOOO many potatoes this year out of my garden, so I will keep trying this recipe until perfected ? Thank you for the recipe!
I used to visit Jim Dandy's BBQ before I'd fallen in love with Eli's, and it's a restaurant we recently re-visited after Eli's had become too popular. Alas, just as Dan Quayle is no Jack Kennedy, Jim Dandy's is no Eli's Barbecue. The smoky aromas wafting outside its doors are truly mouth-watering, but once inside we found ourselves disappointed at the comparatively skimpy servings. It even seemed to us that the servers had been instructed to painstakingly dole out very specific portions, as though we hadn't just paid $11 apiece for the platter and drinks and instead were beggars at a soup kitchen (with apologies to beggars and soup kitchens). There are a number of BBQ sauce options here, which should be a tip-off: the meat, diminutive as it was, should speak for itself. --> Toots 12191 Montgomery Rd.

It's perhaps easy to write off a restaurant like Toot's, a regional chain restaurant and sports bar that's long been a lunch and after-work staple for many office workers off Fields-Ertel. Promising "Good Food and Fun," Toot's once had a decent lineup of tasty --albeit artery-clogging-- fried food. Baskets of frog legs, oysters, catfish, clams and lightly-battered dill pickle slices were among my favorites. Time, it seems, has not been good to the place. A constant turnover of heavy drinkers and chicken wing eaters has taken its toll. Wait staff nowadays seem poorly trained: on our last visit, water glasses remained empty and our orders took more than a half hour to arrive. Prices feel a bit steep for such mediocre food. We'll always have the fried pickles and potato soup, Toot's.
