At the funeral last month for my grandmother, one of my mom's cousins had with her several jars of pickles, made using her grandmother's (my great grandmother) recipe.
Just tried one yesterday. Oh man, that's a good pickle! Nice strong dill flavor and just the right amount of spiciness. It bites back a little bit, and if you eat a whole one the heat definitely sticks with you, but it's not so much that it's painfully burning.
The cousin promised to host a party to teach us how the recipe. I can't wait!
