Claussen Pickels are the best pickels from the grocery store and they are always found in the refrigerated section. On their lid it says, "Always chilled never heated". What happens if they're if you do not put them in the refrigerator after you buy them?

They swell back into cucumbers.

This has to be in the top 20 most bizarre gun forum posts. Perhaps you are ingesting delicious Bullieit whiskey like moi.

Clausens are to expensive to experiment on.

They loose their crunch & become just like the crappy off the shelf pickles. Save the brine, stuff the jar with various produce like red bell peppers, cauliflower, broccoli & green beans. Heat up the brine & pour it back into the jar & into the frige. Give it a few day & it aint bad.

You can damn near buy a 5 gallon bucket of cold pack pickles for the price of a jar of Claussen's.

I am concerned about the pickle party that I have stumbled in on...

There is a comment about sweet or salty but I'm not going there.

We have a restaurant here called Pickles Place. They are the only restaurant I've ever known that serves batter dipped deep fried pickles. MMmmmmmmmmmmmm....... I don't know what brand of pickles they use but those things are so good I don't care [:D]

Claussen pickles are the best, period.

However, for a good 'fried' pickle, ya need the cheap Dollar Store pickle chips, a bag of corn meal, and a decent beer.
Double-dipped, and deep fried.

Best served with a glass of Spaten.

Oh, man. They are delicious.

I am not really a pickle person but I love Rickles.

I do my own beer batter fried pickles also, using Bisquick+beer+Sriracha then dust w/ flour+cornmeal+creole seasoning. Deep fry then serve w/ remoulade.

the ones Pickles Place does are full length deep fried wedges. Just love them.

Haven't had fried wedges, maybe I'm not the pickle connoisseur I thought I was.

It's never too late to add to your, ahem, pickle palette. The thing with Claussen and other coldcase pickles is that , since they haven't been cooked during pickling, they're supposed to be crunchier. I just found a brand called Bubbies that taste kind of like sauerkraut, they're awesome. The Mrs. keeps yelling at me to quit buying pickles/olives/etc.

You folks ever heard of Wickles? I find them ridiculously addictive. Dill-hot, crunchy and heart burn inducing. I have to order them by the case to get the local store to order them. Totally worth it though.

CamoMike these Wickles sound good, are they sweet and hot?

Yeah, they're bread and butter style. Sweet up front, heat starts to hit you after about the third slice.

They sound a little like the Famous Dave's Sweet & Hot.

Those Famous Dave's pickles are awesome, we make a relish tray every year for a family get together, and we have to bring a second and third jar of those to refill. I keep telling the wife we should just go to the restaurant and see if we can buy them in a 5 gal bucket.

Found a hardware store near that sells those Rickle's Pickles. Might have to go visit...

No... Are Claussen Pickles in on it!? Am I stepping on toes?

If so, I apologize. I've never tried Claussen Pickles.

If you're a fan of fried wedges, I might suggest fried zucchini.

While fried zucchini is delicious it lacks the sophistication of fried pickles.[BD]

Something to add for flavor to both is harissa. I'm starting a month long venture into more uses of it and frying seems to be top notch.

just an idea to throw on top of this, literally, as well as for fried mushrooms, o rings, etc etc...50/50 ketchup/sriracha, then mix in some horseradish paste...mmmmmmmm

Tried Wickles Pickles and they were very good. They taste very close to the same as Famous Dave's pickles.

The only thing weird about this thread is the fact that you all like pickles. Can't stand the taste of pickles haha.

Glad you could find them local. Wasn't sure if they were a local to me thing or not.
