Sorry for the lack of pictures.
I know this calls for beer, but you really can't taste it, and all the alcohol cooks out, so these are safe for the young-uns.

Slowly add flour to the eggy beer. You may need more or less than I've said. Make it a little thick. Batter-like.
Add salt and pepper to taste.

Dredge your pickle slices in the batter with tongs and carefully place them in the hot oil. I did between five and eight at a time.
Turn them after about a minute. Let them sit another minute (totaling 2 minutes cooking time per slice), and then take them out and place them on a paper towel or other grease-sucking object.
Ta-da! You've got some fried pickles! These lasted all of about ten minutes at my house.
