This recipe for Ranch Dill Pickles has been blowing up the internet! Turn a jar of dill pickles into something ridiculously good with a packet of ranch seasoning mix. They are great for any party or just on their own.
I love homemade pickles like Cucumber And Onion Refrigerator Pickles and Sweet Heat Pickles for snacking, served as an appetizer, or on sandwiches and salads!

So, what’s the story with these pickles? Who knew this was a thing? Well, it is a “thing,” and this recipe has been blowing up on TikTok over the past couple of weeks. So, being the pickle lover that I am and a fan of all things ranch, I had to give it a try.
Reasons To Make This 2-Ingredient Recipe
- It’s fun! Food hacks like taking a package of ranch seasoning and dumping it into a jar of store-bought pickles is super clever.
- These pickles are GOOD! After a bit of shaking and chilling the pickles in the fridge, they turn into an even better dill pickle. The ranch gives the pickle brine just a little something “extra” that makes the pickles delicious.
- It’s easy! It takes just 3 minutes to make the Ranch Dill Pickles and 24 hours to let them get all cozy and yummy in the amped-up pickle brine.
What Do Ranch Pickles Taste Like?
These pickles taste like the perfect marriage of pickle flavor and herb ranch dressing! If you love creamy buttermilk herb dressing, then this dill pickle ranch dressing recipe has your name on it.
Ingredients For This Ranch Pickles Recipe
- Ranch Seasoning – I use Hidden Valley Ranch – salad dressing and recipe mix. I’m a fan and love the intensity of the flavor. You can use whichever brand you like, though, or even homemade seasoning if you like.
- Dill Pickle Spears and/or Hamburger Chips – I used a jar of pickle spears and hamburger chips for my TikTok recipe. You can certainly use a larger jar, 24 ounces if you only want to use one type of pickle.
Variations And Substituations
- Amp the flavor with spices like onion powder, red or black pepper, garlic powder, or dried dill.
- Herbs like fresh dill, parsley, and chives bring a bright, fresh vibe.
How To Make Tik Tok Ranch Pickles
- Open the jar of pickles and sprinkle in ½ packet ranch seasoning. Replace the lid and shake vigorously.
- Place in fridge to chill for 24 hours, then enjoy!
Tips For Making This Recipe
- First, be careful when opening the pickle jar. The brine/pickle juice is usually filled to the top and often spills out.
- I like to pour about a tablespoon off the top before adding the ranch seasoning.
- Use a knife to gently push the seasoning down into the jar before resealing. Shake well to mix all the ingredients.
- Make a second batch with the remaining ½ packet of ranch seasoning.
- Make sure to let the Ranch Dill Pickles chill in the fridge for at least 24 hours before serving. It will be hard to wait, but it’s worth it!
How Long Will These Flavored Pickles Keep?
Check the date on the pickle jar indicating how long the pickles will keep. After the jar is opened and you make the ranch dill pickles, store them in the fridge.
What To Serve With Hidden Valley Ranch Dill Pickles
There’s little wonder why this recipe has gone viral. These crazy good pickles are the perfect thing for summer cookouts and parties!
- Grilled BBQ Chicken Legs and Macaroni Salad.
- Air Fryer Chicken Wings and Cheese Ranch Potato Foil Packs.
- Low Country Boil, Air Fryer Sweet Potato French Fries, and Spicy Mayo Sauce.

Is that one 1 oz pkg of Ranch Dressing or a 11 oz pkg.
Donya
Hey there Judi!
That’s a great question! It’s one 1 oz package of ranch seasoning. I hope you enjoy this recipe, let me know how it turns out!

Little confused — recipe is for 1 jar of hamburger dill chips w/ranch dressing mix and 1 jar of kosher dill spears – so we’re making each separate, yes / no.
Donya
Hey there Marlen!
That’s a great question! This recipe is for 2 separate jars of pickles, both spears and dill pickle hamburger chips. What you’ll want to do is put 1/2 a pouch of ranch seasoning in each jar, so you’ll use the full pouch but split it between 2 types of pickles. If you prefer spears then you can just do two jars of spears, same goes for the dill pickle hamburger chips. I hope you enjoy this recipe, let me know what you think! Thanks for your support, have a great day!
