For the dip
- 1 cup milk or buttermilk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
For frying
Heat a few inches of oil in a deep fryer or Dutch oven to 325 F.
Working in batches, dredge the pickles in the flour. Shake off excess.
Dip pickles into the milk mixture. Shake off the excess.
Return the pickles to the flour and dredge again. Shake off excess.
Transfer pickles to the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes.
Place on a rack to cool and drain.
For the spicy coating
When you're done frying the pickles, ladle 1/3 cup of the hot oil into a small sauce pan and whisk in the spicy coating ingredients.
Brush mixture over the pickles. The more you brush on, the hotter it'll be.
