Stuffed Fried Pickles

Fried pickles are one of the ultimate snacks. Full stop. They’re salty, savory, crisp, and a fixture at just about any tailgate no matter what team is playing. But they're just never quite as crunchy as I want them to be because their high moisture content quickly turns them limp. Not only do these stuffed fried pickles raise the ante with a surprise center of ooey-gooey cheese and a hint of spice, but they’re so crisp your neighbor could hear you take a bite out of them.
