No Canning 24 Hour Dill Hamburger Pickles
NO CANNING 24 Hour Refrigerator Hamburger Pickles! This easy recipe doesn’t require vinegar and tastes just like the best dill pickles! This is one of my favorite homemade recipes to use for our garden cucumbers! I love how crunchy the pickles are!
It’s the beginning of August which means it’s pickle time. The cucumber plants are thriving and we’re picking kirby cucumbers by the basket. Between this and my Half Sour Pickle recipe, I’m all set with pickles for the rest of my life.
This pickle recipe is easy and tastes just like the best Dill Hamburger pickles you can buy in the store. You don’t need canning experience because these are no boil needed. You throw them in the refrigerator and they’re ready to crunch in 24 hours. Also this recipe doesn’t use vinegar because you all know my hatred for vinegar, so for all of you who have gotten to this recipe because you typed into Google “I hate vinegar, please give me pickles”, I got you covered. I love these pickles, they’re win win all around.
We’ve been picking a bunch of kirby cucumbers in the garden. We grow our cucumbers in 27 gallon containers and we’re always surprised by how well they grow. We try to pick them before they get too big, but sometimes one giant gets through because we miss him (they’re boys).
I always love the odd ball shaped pickle too. Don’t discriminate, they all make delicious pickles.
First thing, cut up you pickles into slices. You’ll want 4 cups of pickles for this recipe. If you’re doing more or less than 4 cups, then you’ll have to do some math with the recipe.
While cutting the cucumbers, throw a few in your mouth because you deserve it. Aren’t they delicious?
Throw your dry ingredients in a bowl and mix them around. If you want to make sure they stay crunchy, make sure to pick up some Pickling Crisp. I get mine from Amazon for $8 and it lasts forever.
Throw your pickles in 1 pint mason jars. Then throw your dry herbs and seasonings on top.
Now add your sugar/salt water mixture evenly into the 3 mason jars.
Now close the lid and shake these babies up.
Throw them in the fridge and wait 24 hours. No peeking, no opening. I know the urge is hard but do it!
And once the 24 hours is up, dive in!
They are the perfect taste of dill with a nice crunch.
Now the hard part.. not eating them all at once!
Enjoy!

Genius idea! I don’t like pickles, but this looks nice!
Your cucumbers from the garden look delicious! I love the idea of a “quick” pickle recipe. I just started canning for the first time last year and although it’s tons of fun, it definitely takes a lot of time!
this sounds fun and easy!!
i’ve never used pickling crisp! i’m looking into it, because we’re suddenly obsessed with pickles (and i’m obsessed with your jars!). 🙂
I have been allll about pickled anything these last few months – so good! I’ve only done homemade pickles once … need to do it again! These look sooo good!
I love finding new ways to make refrigerator pickles! These sound awesome and I have lots of baby cukes waiting to be pickled 😉
