I personally like to add dill to this recipe (as seen in the thumbnail) This is the most basic pickle recipe I could come up with. What do you like to add to your homemade pickles?

[@rbewhe1222]

pretty much exactly this but with MSG

[@WilsonsBBQ]

Never tried adding MSG. I definitely will next time

[@mikehedlund9631]

I like to add a little garlic, Sometimes, even a little jalapeno pepper.

[@WilsonsBBQ]

I’m a big fan of adding garlic too!

[@richardhurst1969]

Link to the crinkle knife??

[@sljoseph74]

I can almost taste them. That crunch, wow!

[@timbuchholtz3904]

I have a recipe essentially the same, I got from my grandmother. I add white onion slices in the jar as well as the cucumbers. I've always referred to these as "bread and butter pickles" here in the Midwest (US). Never had a batch last long enough to test their shelf life. Keep up the good work. Appreciate the content you're putting out.

[@georgecassettare55]

Just made these, the measurements are spot on! Thanks for the guide, great work as always

[@timothyswatzell221]

Great video as always. I agree the next day they rock. I add dill and a garlic to mine. Be safe and keep them coming

[@TechBearSeattle]

To note: These are what in the US are called English cucumbers: they are drier than US cucumbers and typically come in plastic wrap. Most cucumbers in the states have a smooth, waxy finish that does not pickle: if you can not find English cucumbers be sure to get "pickling" cucumbers which do not have the coating. A farmer's market would be a good place to find them.

Will surely try this out, thanks for sharing

[@MrKoopas]

Going to try these out. You should invest in a mandolin if you're doing a bunch of pickles. They have a crinkle cut blade and you can cut them all super fast at the same thickness.

[@WilsonsBBQ]

Appreciate it! I actually do have a Japanese mandolin, but I thought people could pick one of these up much cheaper off Amazon for like £3. Agree though - mandolins are the way!

[@whonose7114]

Loving the recent frequent uploads! One question though, are you secretly one of the waiters from Channel 4's First Dates? Saw my Mrs watching it the other day and swear your exact double is on it 😂

[@jtourettes]

How many servings per 32oz pot roughly? Cheers.

[@rnbyido]

not many people in the uk eat pickles with bbq i've found... i love them

[@WilsonsBBQ]

Same. Balances out all that fat for me.

[@benjismith593]

Dill weed n seed. Plus toss is black peppercorns while it is simmering. Pickling salt for the salt. Use a grape leaf in the jar to get that crisp crunch. Or use calcium chloride. You can use this same method for onions, and jalepenos as well. You can also toss in a couple cloves of garlic into the jar.

[@TheSillyKitchenwithSylvia]

I LOVE PICKLES!

[@sergman84]

Does the turmeric add any flavor?

[@TechBearSeattle]

A little bit; turmeric has a dry, earthy flavor. Mostly, though, it is a dye.

[@notacluebbq2500]

Great video! Can I use distilled vinegar in place of white vinegar? Thank you!

[@WilsonsBBQ]

Of course. It will just have a slightly different flavour.

[@notacluebbq2500]

@@WilsonsBBQ That's great - thank you! I have loads of bottles of distilled vinegar here as we have to use it as a fabric softener due to my son's eczema.

[@WilsonsBBQ]

@notacluebbq2500 just check it’s food grade at about 5% acidity. Not cleaning grade

[@notacluebbq2500]

@@WilsonsBBQ Thank you. Yep, it's just the bog standard distilled vinegar you can get at Tesco and Aldi for about 35p per pint bottle. Thanks again - you're a good man!

[@dislexicdadscooking]

Nothing wrong with a home made pickle

[@WilsonsBBQ]

Yes sir!

[@StacyVictorino-gn7le]

👍

[@rhec_junior_9122]

ever thought about adding peppercorns and garlic cloves

[@TechBearSeattle]

You can pickle pretty much anything. My favorite with BBQ is pickled red onion with garlic. Pickled sweet red pepper is also very nice.

[@SuperPfeif]

Nice man

[@wiwingmargahayu6831]

chicken liver gizzard and intestines tasty for me sir also cow tripe and intestines

[@fuhckerschite]

[@StitchJones]
