Directions:
Wash cucumbers thoroughly in cold water, scrubbing with a stiff brush. Soak in cold water overnight. Put dill and garlic in bottom of crock. Place cut up hot pepper and cucumbers in crock and cover cucumbers with lukewarm brine.

Brine:
Boil for a few minutes enough water to cover pickles in crock, along with canning salt and white vinegar. Let brine cool to lukewarm. Cover cukes with brine. Put a flat plate over cukes and weigh down so all cukes are covered with brine. Cover crock with a rug or towel.

Pickles are ready to eat in anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks. It depends on how warm it is where the crock is kept. Keep testing. Once they are ready they must be eaten; they do not keep.
