Difficulty: Easy

Prep time: 20 minutes

Cook time: 20 minutes

Servings: 20

Ingredients

  • 1 (24 oz) jar or slices Kosher dill pickle spears
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup hot sauce
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 gallon peanut oil
  • 2 cups (link below) Uncle Bubba's Fry Mix

Directions

Uncle Bubba’s Fry Mix

Drain the juice from the pickle jar and refill the jar with the garlic powder, hot sauce and buttermilk. Marinate the pickles for at least 30 minutes.

In a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, heat the oil to 350 °F. Drain the pickles. Put the fry mix in a large mixing bowl, and toss the pickles to coat thoroughly. Shake off the excess mix by tossing lightly in a strainer and deep fry the pickles in batches for 3 to 5 minutes, depending on the size of the spears.

When golden brown, remove the pickles from the oil with a clean strainer or slotted metal spoon and place on paper towels to drain off any excess oil. Serve immediately.

I wonder if this recipe will work on banana peppers as well?. Me and my son love banana peppers just as much as pickles, so I’m gonna try it and let you know how it goes!!

I am allergic to peanuts, what oil can substitute the peanut oil?

No Hot Sauce

I can't do hot sauce - can I just leave it out, or is there something I can sub?

The spiciness cooks out and just leaves the flavor if that makes any difference!
