• In a large bowl, toss the cucumbers and onion with the pickling salt, making sure every piece is well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• After 2 hours, thoroughly rinse the cucumbers and onion to remove any excess salt. Transfer to a clean large bowl.
• Make the pickling spice mix: In a small bowl, mix together the yellow and brown mustard seeds, black peppercorns, red pepper flakes, and celery seeds.
• Make the pickles: Scoop 2 tablespoons of the pickling spice mix into each of 3 16-ounce mason jars. Add 2 cinnamon stick halves, 1 habanero, 2 sprigs of dill, and 3 cloves of garlic to each jar. Divide the cucumbers and onion between the jars, packing tightly.
• In a small pot, combine the water, apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, and sugar. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the sugar has dissolved, 5-7 minutes. Transfer the pickling liquid to a heatproof measuring cup.
• Carefully pour the pickling liquid into each jar, leaving ½ inch of headspace at the top. Use the back of a spoon to press down on the cucumbers and onion until completely submerged.
• Tightly screw the lids onto the jars and let sit at room temperature for 2 hours, then transfer to the refrigerator overnight, or up to 2 weeks.

• Drain the pickles, discarding the pickling liquid and removing any lingering pickling spices, onion, and garlic.
• In a shallow dish, whisk together the buttermilk, hot sauce, and 1 tablespoon of the Nashville spice mix.
• In a separate shallow dish, stir together the bread crumbs and ½ tablespoon of the Nashville spice mix.
• Dip the pickles in the buttermilk mixture, then transfer to the bread crumbs, using your hands to pat the crumbs into each slice until fully coated.
• Working in batches, fry the pickles in the hot oil for 3-4 minutes, until golden brown all over. Transfer to the wire rack and season with kosher salt. Reserve 1 cup of the frying oil.
• In a medium, heatproof bowl, combine 2 teaspoons of the Nashville spice mix, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and the reserved frying oil. Whisk until the sugar dissolves.
• Brush the hot oil mixture over the fried pickles. Transfer to a platter and serve with the comeback sauce for dipping.
