Two great southern classics combine in bacon-wrapped pickles. Also known as “pickle fries,” this easy-to-eat finger food will be a hit at your next barbecue or camping trip.
This is a great use for your homemade pickles, chilled pickles, or even as a final option shelf-stable pickles. They are crispy, salt, smoky, and absolutely delicious. Perfect as a finger food snack or as a vegetable side dish in a larger meal.
Try experimenting with different types of pickles, bacon, and rubs. Different heats, sweetness, and smoke can take the recipe in distinctly different directions.
