2!.In a large pot over medium-high heat, combine the vinegar, water, and pickling salt!. Bring the brine to a rapid boil!.
3!.In each jar, place 2 half-cloves of garlic, one head of dill, then enough cucumbers to fill the jar (about 1 pound)!. Then add 2 more garlic halves, and 1 sprig of dill!. Fill jars with hot brine!. Seal jars, making sure you have cleaned the jar's rims of any residue!.
