Turkish Coffee

Have gotten turned on to this at work by a co-worker.

I have an ibrik and some ground coffee that my friend gave me before he left. However, I am wondering -

a.) My grinder can't grind the coffee fine enough, I don't want to invest in a Turkish grinder at this point, and I'm not sure which varieties/blends would be best anyway. That being said, what is the best brand of pre-ground turkish coffee without cardamom added?

b.) My friend opened the cardamom pods and ground the seeds with the coffee. Some references say to add the whole unopened pod to the cup. Some say brew the spice with the coffee, some say to add it to the cup when serving. Which way is traditional?
