Pickled Red Onions made with a hoppy IPA and spicy Jalapenos. Perfect addition to tacos or BBQ.


Pickled Red Onions are not only tasty but beautiful! What’s not to love about these beautiful pink onions? While in Louisville a few months ago, we had dinner at a restaurant that served pickled onions with their BBQ. I enjoyed the flavor so much, I decided to make a batch a few weeks ago with my BBQ dinner. These are easy to make and you can store them in the refrigerator for weeks even though you’ll probably eat all of them before then.

The flavor combinations are endless. The first time I made it, I just used apple cider vinegar and an IPA. Since, I’ve tried it with peppercorns, jalapenos, and rice wine vinegar. My favorite so far, and the batch I’ve made the most, is using apple cider vinegar and jalapenos. I like the flavor of the apple cider and slight heat from the peppers.

I would avoid using white vinegar in this recipe. It’s a little too strong.

Beers to Use:

I used Sweetwater IPA in this recipe. I went with the IPA to pair with the spice of the peppers, but a pale ale, lager, or wheat beer would all work great.

Need a meal to serve with these Pickled Red Onions? Try my Coffee Stout and Sriracha Tacos or Pulled Pork Sliders.
