Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pickles

    Drain the dill pickles and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Gradually stir in the buttermilk until the batter is smooth.

Frying

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 4

    Coat the Pickles

    Dip each pickle slice into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

  3. 5

    Fry the Pickles

    Carefully place the battered pickles into the hot oil. Fry in batches for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.

  4. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried pickles with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
