Instructions
- Drain pickles and rinse gallon jar.
- Slice pickles into 3/4" or 1" rounds, drain again.
- Into jar layer sliced pickles, peeled garlic, and sugar; add NO liquid.
- Pour on the whole bottle of tabasco sauce, NOTE: I have used the 2oz size when I wanted a less spicy pickle and I think tabasco is the only brand of hot sauce to use in this recipe.

- Cap jar and shake.
- Store in icebox and shake it daily to mix the ingredients and dissolve the sugar.
- In about a week you will have brightly colored,spicy pickles!
Recipe Notes
As these marinate over the week they shrink, so the yield will be less than a gallon.
