I prefer dill and the sour variety of pickles more than the sweet variety. My granny used to make bread and butter pickles and I loved them dearly.
Glad to see you giving props to sour pickles. That's very righteous of you.
POTD to the photo of pickles in ramekins. That was AMAZING!!
wilson: As for Goldberg's, they're decent and good, but they don't knock my socks off. They are better than most pickles you can buy in a store. However, if they're neither in a barrel nor home-pickled, I can't rave about them. IMPORTANT NOTE: Goldberg's locations vary wildly. Steven Bunchofnumbers swears by the Roswell Rd original place, but I find it no better than East Cobb's Bagelicious. The West Paces Ferry Goldberg's is over-yuppied insanity. And the Cobb branch just plain ol' doesn't cut the brown mustard. And NO ONE in Atlanta rivals the barrel-pickles of Harold's of New Jersey.
Arkie: Kohn's of Creve Coeur used to have barrel pickles. DEFINITELY worth a stop.
IMPORTANT POINT: My opinions of pickles are now undergoing MASSIVE revision, as home pickling is fairly easy to do. You get to flavor them how you want.
