Spicy Pickled Okra Is The Perfect Compliment For Grilled Meat

With all the amazing meat fresh off the grill during Food Republic's Grilling Month, you may need a crunchy, sharp pickled bite to cut the richness and fat and complement the sweetness of barbecue sauce. Cooking Light magazine's new cookbook, Pick Fresh, is a collection of simple preparations of seasonal vegetables. Once summer okra start popping onto stalks, they don't stop. Pickle them while you have the chance!
