FANTASTIC!! Very quick and easy and SO GOOD! But as others stated, I put a little less sugar and next time I WILL NOT CHOP the dill. It is very messy chopped--I suggest using it whole. Also, no need to wait 10 days. I made them at night and we began eating them the next day. Today is day 2 and they are almost gone. They were nice and crisp and had plenty of flavor! I'm getting ready to pull more cukes out of the garden to make some more!!

I liked this recipe a lot, however it should say SWEET spicy pickles, if you add as much sugar as the recipe states. I only added about a Tablespoon and they weren't sweet and more the flavor I wanted.

Can I rate zero stars. They might taste great -- I don't know because when I opened each jar, the pickles had completed dissolved -- just mush was left.

Oh my gosh, these are so good after just one day! They are nice and crisp and so flavorful. I used a lot of fresh dill from my garden and didn't chop it. I didn't reduce the sugar because I read all of the reviews after I made the pickles, but I still like them A LOT. Also, they were very easy to make. Will definitely be making more of these.

Great pickels! I used pickling salt, and like others, reduced the sugar. I canned these and they are really good.

OMG! These are better than GREAT! And soooo easy. My hubby doesn't like spicy so I left out the pepper (I'll make another batch for me that has the pepper in it). I added more garlic (as I l like my pickles heavier on the garlic). Could hardly wait the 10 days but its worth it. I'm making my plans now for the taligate market to buy ALL the cukes I can find just to make MORE PICKLES!!!

These are great pickles. THis was my first attempt at making pickles from my home grown cucumbers and they were truly awesome, and better yet EASY!! I reduced the sugar by a lot, next time I think I may only use 1 tbls, I used 2 this time. I also mixed cider vinegar and white only because I didn't have enough cider vinegar. I would have liked a little more dill, but I didn't have enough in my garden. Also, I threw in a couple chopped banana peppers ( because I had them) and a teaspoon of Alum for crispness. Awesome Pickle!!
