All summer long, my Mom used to put-up quarts of bread n' butter pickles and these were perhaps her most special winter treats for us, growing up. Her recipe called for brown sugar- rather than white sugar, and she doubled-up on the sliced onions and mustard seed. These crunchy, deeply-rich-tasting pickles were fantastic on hamburgers and ham/swiss sandwiches on rye.

I'm a huge fan of pickles of all kinds... What's your favorite manner of summer pickle-making?
