SWEET FIRE PICKLES ***PICTURES UPLOADED***

[Hawging It]

This is a pickle recipe that I have done for years. It will also work with a gallon of sliced pickled jalapenos. It is outstanding and extremely easy. **** Today I found 1/2 gallon of pickles and 1/2 gallon of jalapenos. CUT THE BELOW RECIPE IN HALF*** Flip them upside down after 1 day in the fridge. Day 2 flip them back upright. continue this every day for a week or two. The longer in the mixture the better they are.

SWEET FIRE PICKLES

1 gallon of hamburger dill chips

6 cups of sugar

1 large onion (chopped or sliced) your preference

1 tablespoon of red pepper

1 tablespoon of hot sauce

4 cloves of garlic (chopped)

Drain all juice from the gallon of dill chips. Then pour the sugar and all remaining items over the pickles. Flip the gallon jar upside down then back upright several times to mix up the mixture. Place in the refrigerator. The next day, flip the jar upside down. The next day flip it back upright. Repeat this process for several days. According to your taste, you can add more red pepper for hotter pickles.

Hrm, I could invest about 8 bucks to do this. I might dump a can of jalapenos in with it..

Sounds Great!
But Man! Do you have any idea how long a gallon of Pickle Chips would last around here?
About 1/10th as long as hot pickle chips would. Nobody be me would eat the hot ones.
But Mama would sure be hot seeing a jar taking up real estate in the fridge.

Maybe if I reduce it to say a quart, then hide it in my "curing fridge".

Well, actually after all the original dill juice is drained and your ingredients are added back it's only bout 1/2 gallon of sweet fire pickles. Once they sit for awhile and I am happy with the taste then I change over to pint jars. Keep em refrigerated though.

I'm currently out of my sweet fire pickles. Probably going to make a batch this weekend. I will post step by step pics if I decide to make a batch.

Stumbled upon a recipe for these this past summer and they are my new addiction. I add the jalapeños to the pickles and they are great on so many things.

What kinda jalapenos you using, plain ones, or those sweet ones that are already pickled?

So then you would have pickle jars that smell like bacon... to go along with your beers that smell like bacon... I sense a theme here....

It's BACON! Bacon, Bacon, Bacon, Bacon, Bacon!
Apple Wood Smoked... so far.
I have about 145 years of pellets left, of various types. Now that I discovered making dust out of them and using them, that may be 237 years.
You know, give or take a day of two....

Wait a minute! Wait one darn minute here!
You had me all geared up for a Gallon. I even made a cubic foot of bacon.
Now you halved it?
What am I to do with half a cubic foot of bacon?

I guess I'll go over the Bear's and make some BLT's.
I know he loves bacon.

OK, you pickle myster.

LOL! Gotcha.
It all looks good to me.
But... there's always a but, isn't there?
But why Red Cellophane???

I was shocked! I have not seen the 1/2 gallon jugs before. Had to do it!! The pickles will be extra fiery this time as I forgot to use 1/2 of the cayenne and 1/2 the Crystal hot sauce. I can take the heat though. It won't make that much difference. This batch I added bout tablespoon of red pepper flakes to both.

Cajun pickles are good, but since I am not really a fan of pickles, I like candied jalapenos much better.
