Bread & Butter Pickles

I have cucumbers coming out of my garden faster than I can eat them! Here's how I enjoy them all year and get a jump start on what's going in the Christmas baskets this year. The Thyme and Allspice are unconventional ingredients that add a unique taste. This recipe makes 9 pints but you can definitely adjust the ratios for smaller quantities. The longer they sit, the better they taste. Plan to fix ahead of time (like a week or two ahead) and store in the fridge until you are ready to serve. I make huge batches and then when the picnic/cookout invites come, I'm ready.

Once heated through you can either cool and store in the fridge until devoured OR waterbath for long term storage. These taste better the longer they sit, so give the flavors time to marry up before serving.

Mr. Jim's Spicy Bread & Butter Pickles Mr. Jim's Spicy Bread & Butter Pickles
The brown sugar gives these B&B's a bold flavor and the red pepper gives them a nice little kick. They have a good flavor as soon as they are cooled but the flavors will deepen if allowed to sit for 24 hours. I am told they will keep for about a month in the refrigerator, but I have never had a jar that lasted that long. King-Crimson -
