Any chili heads here?

Just had my first large pepper harvest of the year, time to turn up the heat!

I am a hot sauce collector. Everything has peppers, or sauce in it.

My life expectancy has probably been reduced a little

Someone gave me $10 to eat one dab of what they called the hottest pepper on earth once upon a time.

IT WAS NOT WORTH IT!!!

that would be the 7 gnarly looking guys on the right lol I can't eat those reapers, too hot. I like to add them to hot sauce to boost the heat a bit.

Love anything spicy/hot sauce related. Living in california it has always been very easy to grow peppers. I have not given a full batch or harvest a shot but this gives me some good ideas. Which one is your favorite?

He had it in some kind of paste/puree form. I remember puffing my chest out and proclaiming my Louisiana roots made me immune to what mortals consider "spicy/hot/pepper." After eating it I laughed at him and took the $10 to BK for some lunch. Ten minutes later my burger made a burning exit out of my body from both ends. What a waste.

There used to be a cafe here in Brisbane selling a burger which they were marketing as the hottest burger in town. It had a dozen different chilies, sauces etc. Before serving you one they made you sign a waiver absolving them of liability should you burst into flames whilst eating it. I ordered one once. It looked good and was coated in some of the most violent orange and red sauces I’ve ever seen. There was a stray piece of lettuce sticking out of the burger with a tiny dollop of orange sauce on it so I pulled it out and ate it to give me an idea of the heat involved. I instantly started hiccuping just from this tiny bit of sauce. That was it for me, I didn’t even attempt the burger. I like chili but this thing was insane.

 

[Manaz]

Is that the joint where they put your name on the wall if you finish the burger?

 

[OliverNuther]

Yeah they had some sort of Wall of Flame. Don’t recall there being too many names on it though.

 

[Manaz]

No, I imagine not.

Dragon’s Breathe is the current hottest, created fairly recently to beat the Carolina Reaper. It can literally kill you.

I like some heat but I'm not crazy, eating one of those reapers would be horrible. So with that in mind, my personal favorite so far is the Sugar Rush Peach, that's the peachy colored ones in the middle. Vigorous growth, great producer with a lot of early pods, very sweet flavor, decent heat (less than habanero, more than Jalapeno), pretty good size. I doubt you'll find plants anywhere by seeds are readily available.

So the dragon's breathe has claimed to be the hottest, but testing hasn't proven it's hotter than a reaper. Honestly, it's so hot you probably couldn't tell a difference between the two regardless, I know I couldn't. No pepper can actually kill you in reasonable quantities unless it causes a heart attack or something else stress related. I think I read somewhere you would need to eat over a pound of super hots for them to actually be dangerous. Capsaicin (the oil that makes peppers hot) doesn't actually hurt you, despite the pain it causes. It interacts with nerve endings and sends a signal to your brain that's similar to the same signal that burning or abrasive damage would send, without actually causing that damage.

Started with Pepper / pepperony over jalapenos .. now im at habanero .. can’t buy them Single or in a Package there are always Small one in it .. so i don’t buy them often. Pepper King Habanero Chips are .. okay were the hottest thing in the store i could get but for now they are lame.

Got myself a habanero powder - starting slowly to use more and more ..

Chili is like a drug... a meal without it is boring.

There is a Sauce .. Uhm... erös pista - was nice at the Beginning now i use it for breakfast instead of Butter.
But there is also the erös pista 4x stronger - that thing is Crazy.. i can’t eat that raw, sweat is okay for me but when you need to get up in the middle of the Night because your stomach hurts and you Sit there on the Toilet... feeling sweat everywhere .. Feel like you will pass away - like your last Hour Started and you will die there.

i Love Chili but this Sauce .. Nope.

I just got my hands on some habanero power a few weeks back. Wow it's great stuff. But be carefull a very little goes a long way.
