Pickled Asparagus

[Mr. Green Jeans]

A right place right time thing but I received 25# of fresh cut asparagus today. The 2 of us can't possibly eat that much. I was thinking about pickling a batch. Does anyone have successes or failures to share?
Thx!

I have no idea, but I love pickled asparagus. I'll be watching this thread very carefully, Mr. Green Jeans.

Looking at a few recipes; garlic, dill seed, pickling spice and a dash of cayenne.
It will hit the canner tomorrow with a full report @ 11!

Pickled asparagus rocks! Especially in a bloody mary!

Fish, you are the second person to mention this in the last 24. I'd better get my butt in gear!
You can't beat a shore lunch that starts with a bloody mary.

OK, who's mixing the bloody Marys?
