Pickled? - The Firearms Forum

pinecone70 · 11-10-2009, 03:39 PM

So, does anyone pickle things other than the usual cucumbers? I was looking for recipes for pickled eggs and beets today, found a whole bunch of great and unusual things. Somebody pickled ring bologna, which they recommend 90 days in the jar before eating...That's a bit strange. Some relatives that own a restaurant are having a pickle contest, which got me thinking about things that can be pickled.

My favorites, in no particular order:

*Pickled green beans, lots of garlic

*Pickled carrots

*Pickled eggs, with or without beets

*Pickled beets

*Mustard pickles

*Dill pickles!

white fish, moose meat, elk, bear, .... Works on most anything.

I pickle fruit in Home made corn whiskey. Cherries, orange slices, apple slices, Grapefruit, pears, peaches, mullberries, alderberries, black berries, Etc.

Well, I've pickled myself a couple of times

Way back when I was younger, you understand.

I'll add pickled asparagus and radish to your list PC; pickling is a great thing !!

pinecone70 · 11-10-2009, 10:15 PM

Pickled radishes?! I had not heard of those yet!

navis128 · 11-10-2009, 10:23 PM

How 'bout watermellon rind?

Maximilian II · 11-10-2009, 10:36 PM

I didn't pickle them myself, but pickled quail eggs are awesome! Far richer than chicken eggs.

Pickled chantrel dinks...
(with a jalapeno tossed in for good luck)
And 90 days is the correct waiting period.
Asparagus a major plus ta toss inta the mix.

Oysters from the sea are easy. Get a little sauce on em'

, pop them in your mouth

, they'll crawl down by themselves.

OK, John, try them my way. Roast them on a hot grill. Wait til' they pop open. Take out of shell, put some sauce in shell, put oyster back in for about a minute. Let it broil. Take out and eat on a cracker. Taste great, a little chewy.

Man they are good.

One of God's creatures, John.

But, you did say you'd try it, "if someone else made them". Do you eat scallups, clams, mussells?

Sorry John. I have always lived near the Ocean. Dad always fished. He was a professional fisherman in his later years. Seafood has always been greatly loved in my family.

Do you eat any fish? Bass, catfish, bream, trout?

5string · 11-12-2009, 12:07 AM

well i dont do the otsters either, tried them once. yuck.

have eaten , octopus(chewy and bland), squid ( deep fried rings) not bad. mussles ,clams, another yuck.

But nothing beats crappie.

pinecone70 · 11-12-2009, 07:27 AM

Eeew! How did the pickled stuff lead to the slimy stuff?!

AL MOUNT · 11-12-2009, 08:33 AM

Once upon a time, in a land far far away (Kansas).

Me & a buddy went into a local saloon.

Big Bubba the bartender had on bibs but no t-shirt.

After we got our beer, I asked Bubba what was in that big jar down the bar.

Why thems "Hot Pickled Turkey Gizzards" he says.

"Ooooooh" Says I, "gimme one...."

Thought by buddy was going to hurl right there on the bar...
