You can make Bread and Butter Pickles better than any store brand!

Today I'll show you how I make bread and butter pickles. These were a staple for us growing up; we had whole dill pickles to go with chili soup (Dad said "it cuts the grease") but bread and butter were what we ate on sandwiches. It is Stan's favorite pickle. Mom always processed these pickles and kept them on the shelf, but since I have plenty of refrigerator room, I just seal them and keep them in the fridge.
Here is the recipe:
16-18 cups sliced pickling cucumbers (1/4” thick)
1-2 onions, sliced
¼ cup coarse kosher/pickling salt (no iodine)
4 cups ice
2 ½ cups sugar
2 ½ cups cider vinegar
1 T. mustard seed
½ tsp. celery seed
¾ tsp. turmeric powder
Combine the cucumbers, onions, salt , and ice in a large bowl and mix well.
Put a large plate on top and weigh it down with a gallon jug (of water, vinegar, etc)
Let stand for 3 hours, then drain and rinse well.
Combine brine ingredients in a large pan on the stove.
Add drained cucumbers and heat until it ALMOST comes to a boil.
Remove from heat, fill canning jars. If you are storing them in the refrigerator, let them stand until they are at room temperature and then refrigerate. They’ll be good to eat in about and week and will keep for a year or so.
If you are processing them to stay at room temperature, make sure lids and jars are sterilized, process for 10 minutes in a boiling water bath.
