I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that those are my wife's dill pickles from her garden.

Love it! Weirdly enough made the same thing tonight for my wife and I. Wish I had those pickles though!

That looks amazing mate— absolutely amazing. I just made a Beef Roast for the first time with a meat thermometer I’d just got and using only Salt & Pepper, and though I did it up to 145^o F like the thermometer said and I guess that’s well done, it was so good.

I shall pass that on! Thank you!

We do a lot of seasonal canning: pickles, relish, fermented hot sauces, hot pepper rings, jams, etc. Her pickle recipe came from her grandmother, and they’re garlicky and dilly in all the right ways!

It looks it! Some pickles are vinegar forward. Others are subtle and have that rich garlic taste that plays off the mild cucumber. There was a place in my home state that makes their own pickles. I don't get them as I am estranged from my family and never go to the area anymore, and I miss it. Store bought just don't have the same taste.
