It’s June and that means Vidalia season is in full swing here in Georgia!!! Gotta get busy doing something with all these wonderful jewels! Freeze, dehydrate, pickle, you name it! If you have no Vidalia onions, well, I’m sorry, I reckon any sweet onion will do. No BBQ is complete without pickled onions! Give them a try!! You won’t regret it!

  • 2 cups cider vinegar
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

How To Make pickled vidalia onions

  • Step 1
    Bring all ingredients, except onions, to a boil over medium high heat. Stir often.
  • Mandolin with onions
    Step 2
    Peel onions and slice into rings on your mandolin or slice with your knife. Separate ringlets.
  • Onions in sauce pan of vinegar
    Step 3
    Once boiling, remove pan from heat and place onions into hot vinegar mixture. Stir well and let sit for a few minutes to absorb and settle.
  • Two jars of onions
    Step 4
    Place in your covered container of choice and refrigerate. The rings will really break down a lot leaving more room in your container. I leave mine for a good week before eating them.
  • Step 5
    These are great as a relish on beans, hot dogs or BBQ. I’ve always received many compliments on these. Y’all enjoy!!!
