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!

    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.

    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.
