  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • dash of Tabasco
  • salt and pepper

Cajun beer battered fried pickles

  • 6 dill pickles sliced into ¼ inch thick slices
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¾ cup beer

Instructions

  • Make the honey mustard bbq sauce. Whisk together ¼ cup mayonnaise with 2 tablespoon BBQ sauce, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and a dash of Tabasco. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Slice the dill pickles into ¼ inch thick slices. Pat dry the pickle slices with paper towels. Make the beer batter by mixing together ½ cup all-purpose flour with 2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and ¾ cup beer.
  • Heat frying oil to 375 degrees F.
  • Dip the pickles in the beer batter and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to remove excess oil. Repeat with the remaining pickle slices.
  • Garnish Cajun beer battered fried pickles with chopped parsley and sea salt if desired. Serve with honey mustard bbq sauce.
