Remember to take your rings off after the kids have sealed! Other wise they can come unsealed on your shelf and the ring will allow them to reseal and you’ll never know!
First time viewer and I'm less than 2 mins in and learning something new at 43 yrs old. I never knew about the lids not being reused that explains why they sell lids in bulk...
GOOD VIDEO, GOOD ADVICE! Just watched your Channel for the first time. Enjoyed your instructional video very much! THANK YOU! From the State of Minnesota U.S.A!
Thanks for the video. I tried your recipe. I absolutely love the flavor. The red pepper flakes add the right amount of spice to it. I’ll definitely be making some more. I’ve shared so many jars of dill pickles with my friends and family. They love them too.
I have been using this recipe this year for all my dill pickles. I just opened a jar to taste them. AMAZING! So simple and so good. Thank you for this recipe.
I tried your recipe a few weeks ago - my first time making pickles due to a bumper crop of cucumbers this year. Just opened the first jar today and they are fantastic. Thank you so much for teaching me this new skill!
Andrew, I haven’t looked it up but I’m thinking, when you bring the jars out of the canner, you’resupposed to not tilt them. Just leave the water on the top, it will evaporate. Has something to do with not putting pickle juice under the lid before it tries to seal, I think. Love that you can!
Chuckle! I understand. My OCD thing is sticks in the yard. Can’t stand to see even a little twig out there! That’s why there are no trees in my yard. How weird is that?!?!
Thank you for sharing your skills. You can use a basin with soapy water to scrub all the jars instead of letting water flow unnecessarily into the drain. You definitely don't have drought problem in your area. God bless you
Yum! Love dill pickles. I have made this year two batches of Mustard pickle. Yes you probably not heard of them as most people haven’t. This recipe goes back to the 1950’s. So good!! Enjoy.
You should highly consider placing hot jars right out of the canner onto a nice soft dish towel instead of onto metal because that temperature change can cause the jar to break. My cucumbers are about to start jumping so this video was a great reminder to get my pickle recipe ready!!!
Thanks so much for the easy to follow informative turtorial. I just made these and one of my jars broke as well!! So looks like I followed your instructions to a T!! LOL First time canning pickles and you made it so easy!! I just used store bought English cucumbers as they were on sale and this way when harvest comes around for fresh cucumbers I'll go straight to a farm to buy them in bulk and pickle them up this way. I just wanted to make sure before I do anymore that they taste good and are something my family and I would love to eat through out the year! Thank you again!!
@@TKCL My husband and I couldn't wait the 2 weeks to try the dill pickles but we did wait a week and they are absolutely delicious! They taste like a dill pickle with such a great dill flavor and the garlic adds that little extra something to them! Will definitely make more come canning season this fall!! Thanks again for sharing very much appreciated!!
Your information on canning is fantastic.Our country could be set up for major failures in the regular food pipeline in the future and we may have to rely on ourselves for food. Your canning abilities have you out in front. I am building my knowledge base in case I have to take care of my family's food needs with long term safe food storage like our forefathers did. Andrew, you are an enjoyable, wonderful resource. Looking forward to more food preserving techniques. smashing the thumbs up button now.
They sale a pickle crunch that goes along way. It makes crunch. I do hot pickles and mix carrot slice, califlower, onions, celery yummy kid's don't eat so fast . Yup that how it goes sneaking jars. Polish pickles with three hot pepper inn.
I came to watch the canning process. But was distracted by the awesome room you created! I just purchased a new home and it has a huge room in the back that I’m going to create this type of space in. Love the sink! The video was very detailed! I enjoyed it much, thanks for sharing! Best wishes to you and the family. Xo fm Tx!
I need to send you my Aunt's green tomato, onion and jalapeno relish. Can't wait to try this pickle recipe. Glad to know about the apple cider vinegar,
I try never to can my seed's I need my seeds there gold. So this year I had grown a mix of peppers the not really hot kind and I took the seeds wash all seed's and dry on wax well before bagging them then cut into three or two then make a massive batch of Candied Pepper's and can them. Ok my husband needs a talking he blows threw my Candied Pepper's on sandwich and crackers and cheese. I hope to do more I really do. Happy man happy me!
I reuse lids every year and have never had a problem. Sure if one has a broken gasket or something we get new ones but as long as they boil and seal, there really shouldn't be a problem.
Hello Andrew that was awesome watching you can your pickle in flip flops man. "LOL" they need to leave you alone about your flip flops man. "LOL" it's too hot to wear socks and shoes in that type of temperature. Man your Garden is doing very well. Look like you going to have a lot of pickles jars this year. I'd enjoy watching that. Thank you for sharing this video Andrew. You take care buddy.
Great video, this is the first year I'm not growing my own dill so those dill seeds in your recipe sound like the perfect replacement! I will try adding apple cider vinegar this year, plants are just now starting to throw baby cukes 🙂
I boiled quail eggs and started the pickling process here this morning. Trying a spicy recipe. Also have a few dozen chicken eggs to try. I might try this with them.
Thanks so much for this great video. I've been wanting to get into canning HOT baby dills and my own salsa for some time and this video is perfect. Thank you also for all of the safety info and safety links too! Oh...I love your garden. Cheers!
Your pickles look so good! Dill pickles are my favorite. I remember my Mom canning stuff and she would write the date on the lid so that way the older stuff got used up first! Happy eating 😀
My thumb is still smarting from it's accidental substitution for the squash on the mandolin the other day. Think I too will be using a knife to slice my cucumbers for pickling if they survive the heat here. Your recipe looks good. I'll have to try it.
Leaches into the pickles, giving them a metallic taste. In other words, vinegar reacts with metal, and causes the metals to “leave” the pot and join the vinegar “party.” Reactive pots are those made from: aluminum copper brass iron
@@TKCL My space is really limited . I'd have to plant in the same spot every year. I'm hoping planting there every other year won't be to bad. I do have a few above ground raised beds so I've got peppers, tomatoes, and Blackberry plant. Oh yea there's always someone to take it off your hands. Of course some people would like you to pick it to.
Broken jars happen, don't sweat. imo empty jars are more susceptible to micro-fractures but I am no resonance expert. I love pickled cukes, but some of the best pickles I have ever ate were the odds and ends leftover at the end of season, you know those bits and pieces that folks like to experiment with. Commercially jarred minced garlic is milder than fresh fyi, not everyone is aware.
That stick is for measuring your headspace. Take the notches on the end and depending on your headspace you can measure. I think most are in 1/4 inch increments, it should say on the side.
Yes and the other end is for releasing air bubbles, that's why it has a tapered shape to slide in between whatever you are canning. I never use the head space gauge, I always eyeball it.
Your garden is crazy wild. Thanks for the video. Please don't leave me water running. We are under water restrictions and that was hard to watch. I know you have your own well. You're very lucky.
I was wearing my Thinker Tinkerer shirt when I picked up my Great Granddaughter from Vacation Bible School last night. The Pastor asked me what it was about. Well I told him about your RUclips channel and all the things you are doing. He wants to develop his property when he retires. I think you might have another follower.
@@TKCLA little late to the party lol I wanted to say that I am making your pickles tonight. I made sure to read over FDA guidelines and gather the jars and pots I’d need. I’m a 24 year old who just got a home and I’m trying to start small with homesteading as I pay off my mortgage. After days of research (literally), I was beginning to think I simply couldn’t try pickling because the money spent on ingredients would be too big of a loss if I failed. These videos have actually made me understand the concept and process so I know I can at least have some success. Thank you so much for that. PS - I love pickled eggs, do you have a video or recipe for those? ❤
Bit of a recipe for you, essentially your same recipe but add mounded teaspoon of rough cracked pepper corn, pinch of crushed red pepper, swap the minced garlic with 3-4 crushed fresh garlic cloves, 3 chopped up with pieces of the green onion (if that makes sense) . Then give the cucumbers a rough chop and do half chopped cucumber, half chopped pepperoncini, a couple slices of red bell pepper to pack the jar. Then here is where the good part comes. In a crock put put a 1-2lb chuck roast, 1 full jar of the pickle/pepperoncini stuff pickle juice and all, 1 packet of the hidden valley ranch powder mix, and then enough beef broth to go up about half way to 3/4 the way up the piece of beef. cook on high till the meat shreds and you got yourself an incredible batch of pit beef for some shredded beef sandwiches and they broth is perfect for dippin. If you make it, please make a vid and get your reaction to the finished product. Wife and I always make 8-10 jars of that pickle mixture for quick crockpot meals throughout the year.
@@TKCL yeah buddy. Also for next year use a cattle panel arch tall enough walk under to trellis your cucumbers. The cukes will dangle through the cattle panel making it much easier to hunt them. Can plant stuff underneath that grows well in shade.
It’s funny, I made pickles one year and they were amazing and I love them but I’ve never made them cents. Eat a lot of pickles to pretty much every day. Lol. I think I got rid of my big pot for canning because it was ceramic coated and we dropped it but I would definitely like to try this again.
@@TKCL Yeah, the year we did it we made about 50 jars and we did the large jars because we had a ton of cucumbers. Eventually I just had to start throwing them out on the lawn and pull the plants up I’m over them because they were getting huge and wouldn’t stop growing. Lol. They were good but people got sick of us giving them pickles. Lol. No I think it’s easier if you do a bunch at once and just set up your kitchen like a factory for a day or two. Since then we’ve been moving so much I just left all that stuff packed.
Watching this video reminded me of the episode of the Andy Griffith show when Aunt B made her batch of pickles and they tasted like they were pickled in kerosene. I’m sure yours tastes great. 😋
Looking good. Now ever had Garlic Carrots sticks? Now that is like the best chips ever..... and Hawaiian Carrot Cake the Hellman's mayo recipe.... it's amazing.... and a squash cake.... but buy a commercial grade round cake pot to make em. Its thicker and gas best results...
I love canning:) if I can make a suggestion and that is put a dish towel down and then put your jars on it as it stops the risk of a jar cracking:) I have been canning for years and it really does help:) what kind of cucumber did you use? Thanks for sharing as it’s fun to see what others can and their special recipe:) God Bless:)
A hunter's vocabulary: KILL the heat ( a woman would say turn off), LOL Did you put hot liquid in the jars or let it cool down? Loved that bunch of tomatoes - Andrew, the proud grower of tomatoes:)))))) What's that fish above the sink, must have been lots of fun to catch?
I always put hot liquid in so it doesn't take even longer to boil in the pot or have temperature shock. That was a big bass I caught when I was a kid, my dad had it mounted for me.
Natural grapes not good due to drought. My grapes in the garden are doing amazingly well. I don't know why I left that faucet running, I always cut it off. Talking to the camera gets you out of focus.
I can't find dill seed in my area at this time of year and am making these today can I use just dill weed and if so how much would I add per jar?? Great turtorial thank you so much for sharing!!!
Great video Andrew. Learn a lot. Question, when the lid sealed themselves down do I need to tighten up the ring a little bit more or don't touch it? Thank you.
I never boil my jars after I lid them. I have before and I don’t like how it makes the cukes soft and mushy. I like a crisp pickle. I just pull the jars out of boiling water so they’re very hot, add my cukes, ingredients and boiling hot brine and they always seal. Never had an issue so don’t see the reason so boil the full jars and cook and the cukes.
i aint no tree hugger butt, i sure hope those faucets drain to the garden hehe. when your boiling on the grain, ya wanna keep it off the bottom. ya break less jars that way... lemon basil, lemon pepper, garlic, 60/30 vinager water and 10 cranberry juice. in the fridge for a few days mmmm!!! tweak it how ya want hehehe. ya know? i got some smokey honey chipotle seasoning at the store the other day. hmmm.... i'm doin it!!
Kudos for being one of the few canning videos that follow safe canning processing.
Way too many people risk it.
Remember to take your rings off after the kids have sealed! Other wise they can come unsealed on your shelf and the ring will allow them to reseal and you’ll never know!
First time viewer and I'm less than 2 mins in and learning something new at 43 yrs old. I never knew about the lids not being reused that explains why they sell lids in bulk...
Correct, the seal is no good after heating and the first use.
Your garden is insane. What a great collection of vegetables. Your give the best descriptions & instructions.,
Thank you very much
Thank you Andrew for actually teaching and not talking down on views. Yes I know how to can but it nice to see everyone’s tip and techniques.
Thank you for watching
GOOD VIDEO, GOOD ADVICE!
Just watched your Channel for the first time. Enjoyed your instructional video very much!
THANK YOU!

Best pickle recipe ever!
It really is!
@TKCL made really awesome refrigerator pickles, and it is good for pickled carrots. Gonna try cauliflower next

Drives me crazy seeing that water on top lol. I've canned over 100 jars between this year and last, I only remember one not sealing properly.
65 years old been canning all my life.I put up about 500 guart jars and around 450 gallon jars every year. Love doing it
Chuckle! I understand. My OCD thing is sticks in the yard. Can’t stand to see even a little twig out there! That’s why there are no trees in my yard. How weird is that?!?!
“Yes I am wearing flip flops, we can go ahead and get over that now” 😂😂😂😂 LOVE IT!!
Also, your garden is INCREDIBLE!!
😬
Nothing wrong with flip flops unless you are with horses ot large animals
Thank you Andrew for this video. You make it look so easy and effortless. I want a room like yours … it’s a perfect setup for sure!!! 💙
I absolutely recommend to everyone to build a processing room if you do your own meat and garden.
Thank you for sharing your skills. You can use a basin with soapy water to scrub all the jars instead of letting water flow unnecessarily into the drain. You definitely don't have drought problem in your area.
God bless you
Nope we don't in Florida, get feet of rain every year.
Thanks for the great video Andrew! I just retired in January of this year and I'm a beginner pretty much at canning. Great job!
Glad you enjoyed it

A small amount of apple cider makes a big difference in taste.
Hi Andrew your pickles looked pretty good. I think I might try them myself. Enjoyed your video, see you on the next one. 🌞🇨🇦
Thank you for watching
My folks used to make pickles every year. This video makes me want to go back in time.
I boiled quail eggs and started the pickling process here this morning. Trying a spicy recipe. Also have a few dozen chicken eggs to try. I might try this with them.
I'm very curious about that, let me know how it turns out.
Thank you for the link.
This was very helpful! Can't wait to see your pickled okra!
Thank you for watching
We can green tomatoes and they are just as good when fresh
pickled green beans are the best!
Can't wait to try them!

Yikes! Hate to hear that, grab some cut resistant gloves off of Amazon.
Pickled green tomatoes aren't too bad either. I usually do that when I have some greenies left on the vine at the end of the season.
🤔🤔🤔🤔
That garden is looking amazing. This seems like a good pickle recipe. I think I'll give it a try this year. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching
❤ I really like how you doing your canning I am new at it 👍
It's worth the effort, like money in the bank.
I made pickles about 5 days ago! I don't like hot canning, so I just put them straight into the fridge.
I make 60+ jars a year of pickles and okra, so I have to hot can for shelf storage.

Awesome video. growing your own food saves you a lot of money.
Enjoyed the video. Learned how to pickle today, thx. How are your grapes growing? Please practice water conservation.
Natural grapes not good due to drought. My grapes in the garden are doing amazingly well. I don't know why I left that faucet running, I always cut it off. Talking to the camera gets you out of focus.
Vir watter rede sal jy die water so mors?? 😲
Andy....if people have that big of a problem with you in flip flops...then they have other issues.
Nice content as always man. 👍
That's very true!
I can't find dill seed in my area at this time of year and am making these today can I use just dill weed and if so how much would I add per jar?? Great turtorial thank you so much for sharing!!!
The seed sure makes a difference, but yes you can skip it. I'd double the amount of dill weed I used.
@@TKCL thank you!!
I wish you were my nephew 😁🤣😉
Water canning times will depend on your elevation above sea level. Ensure you can the proper amount of time.
I caught that green bean flex
Would it be ok to use pickle crisp in each jar
Sure, you can add that as well.
Great video Andrew. Learn a lot. Question, when the lid sealed themselves down do I need to tighten up the ring a little bit more or don't touch it? Thank you.
You can take the ring completely off at that point. The lid should always remain sealed due to vacuum. If you ever find one not sealed, throw it away.
What size jars are you using?
Pints
Get yourself some Yaxell Mon knifes. The VG-10 core stays sharp forever and they are much better priced than s30v or s90v steels.
I never boil my jars after I lid them. I have before and I don’t like how it makes the cukes soft and mushy. I like a crisp pickle. I just pull the jars out of boiling water so they’re very hot, add my cukes, ingredients and boiling hot brine and they always seal. Never had an issue so don’t see the reason so boil the full jars and cook and the cukes.
i aint no tree hugger butt, i sure hope those faucets drain to the garden hehe. when your boiling on the grain, ya wanna keep it off the bottom. ya break less jars that way... lemon basil, lemon pepper, garlic, 60/30 vinager water and 10 cranberry juice. in the fridge for a few days mmmm!!! tweak it how ya want hehehe. ya know? i got some smokey honey chipotle seasoning at the store the other day. hmmm....
i'm doin it!!
Can you use seeds to replant more cucumbers and if so do you dry them out
You can if it's heirloom seeds to begin with. Yes dry them.
@@TKCL thank you
Can you use kosher salt instead of pickling salt
Not sure, you'll need to research that.
Is this same brine safe to use to pickle and can Jalepeno slices too?
I don't how it would taste but yes it's safe. The problem I've had is when you water bath can peppers, they get very mushy.
Grow your own dill. You only have to plant it once and you'll have dill for the rest of your life. My dill is 19 generations old ;-)
I sanitize my jars in the dishwasher. 😊
When I made that video we were living in a camper, no dishwasher.
