Fried Pickles?!
Also, any cool sauces to dip them in or interesting breadings are welcome.
Answers: OK, down here in Alabama we have fried dill pickles. But when I moved up to Virginia nobody had even heard of them. Just wondering if they are a Southern thing or if I'm the only one out there thats had this.

you know Southerns fry anything so yes its a Southern thing just like my fried turkeys yum. But i just add a dash of hot sauce on my fried pickles. So how about this question fried spears or slices i seen them both
NOOOOH!

I'm from Chicago and here fried pickles a something different for us! Don't get me wrong my people are from Mississippi. Hooters the famous wing place has them here.
we had fried pickles at applebees here in central california, we dipped them in ranch
That's one of those regional things. I'm sure any veg batter would work. Here is a great sauce, it's supposed to be like outback blooming onion dipping sauce. I like it on baked fries (from the frozen bag)

It might be a southern thing. I live in Oklahoma and there are several resturants that serve fried pickles, by the way I love them with ranch dressing, which seems to be an Okie thing. We dip almost everything in ranch. Most are made with corn meal.
