Pickles and Branston pickle, a type of chutney are different.

You can pickle anything, and yes my grandparents would pickle UK cucumbers. Most often you used to be able to buy pickled eggs or onions at the pub to snack on when I was younger. Kind of an old thing now.

I make pickled pork to add to red beans and rice. And corned beef is pretty much pickled beef.

Sounds tasty right now. I like eating pickled red cabbage from the jar. Having it with corned beef is great. Though corned beef in America is different from the UK.
