Oh I just love home made B & B pickles. Just awesome with pinto beans. I have never attempted to make pickles but my sister is really good at it.

I used this recipe as a base for my bread and butter pickles I made this year. I adjusted the ratios to accommodate making 12 quarts at a time, and added coriander. I have never had better pickles in my life! The other thing I changed about this recipe is the crushed ice part. Instead, I soaked (shocked) the sliced cucumbers in an ice bath while heating up the vinegar/sugar/spice mixture. They came out extra crunchy after being in the ice bath for less than 10 minutes. Excellent recipe. I will be posting my version soon! Thanks!
