These are the BEST pickles in the world!!!! My mother use to make these and they were always everyone's favorite. I am in the process of making them right now for my sister and myself. Try them and see for yourself!!!

Been making these pickles for more than 10 years and they are always a winner. Even my Granny (who made pickles the old fashioned way) tried them and traded her old fashioned pickle recipe for this one.
