#SuperBowl Party- Fried Pickles y'all. Y U M.

I know my go-to appetizer when I’m out watching football at a bar is fried pickles. (Shout out to the Esso Club in Clemson, S.C., for starting this addiction.) So, that’s why the first post in this Super Bowl party recipe series is nothing else but fried pickles.

I used my Fry Daddy Jr. for this. If you don’t have a deep fryer, (a) double check to make sure you really are Southern and then (b) ask your grandmother or mom if they have any extras to spare. That’s where I found mine! It’s the perfect size to fry just about anything and yet store away nicely. If not, add about 2 inches of oil into a medium-sized frying pan or pot.

Ingredients
1 jar of hamburger dill pickle chips

Buttermilk

2 cups flour

1 1/2 tablespoons paprika

1 tablespoons garlic powder

Vegetable oil for frying

Directions

Drain pickle juice from jar and pour enough buttermilk into the jar enough to coat all. Marinate pickles in fridge for at least an hour.

On a plate, mix paprika, flour and garlic powder. Pour oil to the line in your fryer and heat until it starts rippling.

Drain buttermilk from jar and coat the pickles with the flour mix. Shake off excess coating. Drop about 10 pickles into the fryer at a time and let fry for about 5 minutes until crispy and brown. Remove from fryer and place on layered paper towels to remove grease. Sprinkle with salt. Repeat until all are fried.

Serve these babies with homemaderanch dressing. You heard me right! After you’ve tasted homemade ranch, you won’t go back. Trust me.

Enjoy y’all!
