Air Fryer Pickle Juice Wings

These Air Fryer Pickle Juice Wings are tangy, lightly sweet, and perfectly seasoned with layers of flavor from pickle brine, Italian dressing, and a blend of spices. They cook up crispy on the outside and juicy inside, with oven and grill options included so you can make them any time of year.

If you’ve been around here a minute, you already know I love a good wing night and I love preparing them in the air fryer. These Air Fryer Pickle Juice Wings are one of my new favorites!

They’re tangy from a splash of pickle juice, lightly spicy from hot sauce, and seasoned all the way through. The Italian dressing trick gives them that glossy, golden finish that tastes like you fussed - even though you didn’t.

Although I ran mine through the air fryer, I’ve included oven‑baked and grilled versions too, so you can make them year‑round. However you cook them, they come out juicy inside, crispy outside, and absolutely addictive.

Dill Pickle Pasta Salad

I'm a pickle fanatic.

It would be a rare day that I didn't eat one with a sandwich or even just as a snack. Although I love bread and butter pickles, sweet gherkins and kosher dills the most, anything pickled is fair game - pickled okra, jalapenos, squash and beets - yep, love them all!

So, when I saw a dill pickle pasta salad going around social media I thought heck yeah, I gotta try that!

French Potato Salad

One day, as I shared cookout recipes on my Facebook page, I shared my classic potato salad, a recipe that, while I do prepare other versions on occasion, is my standby recipe and most similar to the way that my Mama made potato salad. A reader commented that I really should try French potato salad sometime.

Of course, I took that as a challenge!

This is my Deep South take on classic German Potato Salad, made with a warm bacon dressing, including our Holy Trinity of Southern cooking, along with pickles and juice, sugar, mustard, horseradish, hot sauce and black pepper. Best served warm or at room temperature.

Deep South Style German Potato Salad

We love our Classic Southern Style Potato Salad here in The South, but German Potato Salad is a popular Southern favorite too. I make no claims to the authenticity of this version, but with the inclusion of our Deep South Holy Trinity of Southern cooking, mine is a Deep South take on this classic favorite. Not only is it the perfect potato salad for our sweet and sour Southern palates, it's a great potluck, picnic and church supper dish too.

A classic, old fashioned macaroni salad, made with elbow macaroni, sweet onion, celery, chopped pickles, and pimento - simple, the kind that grandma used to make.

Classic Old Fashioned Macaroni Salad

Before there were pasta salads filled with all sorts of yummy goodies, there was the humble macaroni salad. Usually a very simple concoction containing elbow macaroni, a little celery, most always pickles and pimentos here in the south, and sometimes onion, it's dressed usually with a very classic mayonnaise dressing.
