Bucket Pickles! I never knew there was such a thing. We just returned from holidays on Vancouver Island, visiting some of our closest and dear friends. Best holiday we’ve had in years. Not only was it relaxing and rejuvenating, we spent quite a bit of time learning new skills. Rudy went ocean fishing for a couple days, and they did very well, we are restocked on salmon and halibut. Our first lesson of the trip was how to make smoked salmon candy. We will definitely be making a load asap. While Rudy was fishing I was learning how to make soap, sewing on a serger, and how to make bucket pickles. One evening we had white tail burgers. I asked my girlfriend if she wanted me to slice some dill pickles for the burgers. She said no, just grab the bucket pickles. OMG, making pickles could not be any easier. I will post the recipe for anyone wanting to try it.
