Bucks Coal Fired Pizza

North Palm Beach

Bucks’ viral Fire Roasted Pickle Pizza covers one of its famous coal-fired pies with fire-roasted pickle chips and dill aioli. The heat of the oven gives the pickles a smoky edge, while the creamy aioli doubles down on the dill.

For a pickle with a little more punch, try Blackbird’s Korean Pickles. The $5 plate brings together cucumber, kimchi, and gochugaru for a spicy take that trades the usual dill-and-vinegar profile for fermented funk and chili heat.

Sometimes there’s no improving on a classic. Fried Pickles at Mrs. Smokeys deliver the old-school version we know and love: pickles transformed into a snackable bite that pairs perfectly with barbecued meats.

Pusateri’s Chicago Pizza

Stuart

This Chicago-Style Dog doesn’t settle for just one kind of pickle. Along with a full spear, this dog comes with the namesake city’s famous electric-green pickle relish—made from chopped cucumbers, vinegar, sugar, and salt.

Palm City

The Pickle-Brined Fried Chicken Sandwich at Townies makes pickling part of the main event, soaking the chicken in a buttermilk pickle brine before piling on spicy sriracha pickles. Guacamole and tavern garlic sauce round out the deliciously messy affair.

A playful twist on the classic martini, the Kind of a Big Dill cocktail pairs crisp vodka with tangy pickle brine for a boldly savory sip. Shaken until perfectly chilled, it delivers acidity, brine, and a satisfyingly clean finish. Available throughout the month of November.
