  1. I started these in the morning so I could use them in Biff A La Lindstrom for dinner last night. Very easy to make. They are delicious. Can’t wait to enjoy them in salads as well. Made for the Smok’in Chefs and CQ 2017.

  2. These are wonderful. I left them for about 18 hours and if I can keep away from them I think they would just keep getting better and better!

  3. I used canned beets and they did well with this recipe. I usually add cloves or pickling spices to pickled beets. This recipe delivered a milder product. Tasty, but not as seasoned. Thank you for sharing the recipe!
