There's a restaurant in Chapel Hill NC that I used to go to all the time called the 'Flying Burrito' They had a hab salsa that was delicious. It was real sweet (but still hot). I think they mixed the habaneros with vadalia onions. Only problem was you could not stop eating it or the hot would really kick in. This posed a serious problem when your real dinner arrived.

Dancin' over rocks n' roots!
I've tried a little on some scrambled eggs. It was pretty good. Sq-Earl managed to get it on his fingers while putting the cap on and that led to some pain. He washed his hands and proceeded to put his contacts in...:eek: His eyes were red and watery for over a day!

hell yea I do ...

We grow and usually have about 20 bushels of hot peppers every season. Red and Golden habs & Scotch Bonnets, Tai hots and Tazmanian, yellow jellies, chilis, Hungarian (my favorites!) ... :drool: :drool: :drool: These are red and golden habaneros from last season.



Eating / cooking with hot peppers is big in my family. :thumb: Much of what we grow gets dried and made into shake, which is quickly distributed to friends that have developed a serious habit.

Watchin' you. Writing it all down.
Did anyone actually read the posts on the balls of fire site?

http://great-balls-of-fire.tribe.net/thread/6486c5be-efef-4546-8de9-3e4a5bc2b39d

No, it was more of a light dripping of napalm from my anus. I sat and struggled with the amazing amount of nothing that was coming out, wishing (secretly) that the water was chocolate milk so that I could lower my bottom in to the bowl for relief.
Apparently laura posts there

You guys are insane!

Food shouldn't HURT YOUR MOUTH! Much less cause physical pain as it's exiting also!

...but I've heard that shaving cream helps. I have NO idea how, or where you put it (have a good guess though...ew)...but I thought I'd throw that out there for you nutjobs.

Ah, the Dave's....

Our bass player used to bring that stuff on tour and put it in ramen. :dead:

We fed it to the drummer of a band we were on tour with in Europe. They were from Sweden. The hottest thing he had ever tried was pepperoni. He was drunk and mouthing off, "What is the big deal with that stuff, you little pussy guys are scared of some bottled sauce?"

We tried to explain. He just didn't get it. It was alien to him.

But we were drunk too...


We handed him a brimming capfull (about a tablespoon) and he dipped some cheese pie in it (soak up most of what was in the cap) and ate it. It destroyed him. He was crying in fear and confusion and pain. I don't think I've ever laughed that hard.

I think he was a little scared of us after that.


There is a bar in Oakland that used to use that stuff for bets. 1 teaspoon, no water or milk for ten minutes. I've seen people puke in sheer agony. Good times.

I've never been into hot foods myself but the wife loves em. My grandmother (who is a little old mexican lady) makes some seriously hot stuff. I can't be in the house when she is making it. :hot:

I have a bottle of this stuff on my desk that I let other people try. Some say it's hot, others say it's just "Meh"...

You're all pussies until you've snorted tear gas.:rolleyes: I'm with Laura here. Heroes.;)

Been there, done that. Some jerk tossed a tear gas grenade into a bar I was running sound for. Threw it right behind the stage. I, the being safety conscious guy that I am, ran right up to the thing thinking something on stage was on fire (not knowing what it was a tear gas grenade at this point). I got a good face-full of the stuff before I realized what was going on. That was the second most painful experience of my life. Insanity sauce in the eye still beats tear gas. Sorry.

It should come with a MSDS (materials safety data sheet) on the label

Here's one:

In our lab we have pure capsaicin from Sigma. It's got a couple of interesting research uses, including being a potent neurotoxin.

You wear gloves & a mask and make this crap up in a hood. A colleague of mine pricked his thumb with a needle containing a 20% solution, and reported that he seriously thought about cutting his thumb off to end the burning pain.

i love love love spicey stuff but crap like that is stupid. its like 'look how big my balls are, i'll eat this and burn a hole in my intestine'. it loses its appeal if its so hot that you can't taste it. TN decided to eat a habenero when we first started growing them. I took a nibble, but he took a big chunk of it. He was up all night swearing that he was dying while i slept like a baby.

Novelty foods make me sad.
I 100% agree.

My favorites are a spicy bar b que sauce for wings and ribs, Chipotle is also on of my favorite spices so anything Chipotle goes. I for one cannot stand plain Tabasco though, just tastes bad. I was eating a Burrito at this place and asked for hot sauce, they gave me tabasco and I asked if they had anything a little better so they came out with some Asian crap that looked like brown applesauce. I put both the tabaco and that stuff on and they thought I was crazy but it wasn't anything noticable. I think you can build up a tolerance to spicy food because I have.

If it was on Capitol Hill, it was Salvador Molly's. I love that place! The jerk chicken is soooo good. All the food is good and not all of it is hot. But if it's listed on the menu as "hot" then you know you might be pushing it if your not ready for it.

I have about 8 different peppers for this year, but hot peppers don't grow in Oregon as well as they would in like Arizona. My mom has pepper plants that she has had for years.

Is that why my Habs didn't grow last year? When I was living in MD, I planted about 200 from seeds in the winter time and grew them in pots in my laundry room. I then transplanted the six biggest plants into a front yard garden in the spring. I'll be darned if they didn't grow into the most magnificent shrubbery I've ever seen with each plant yielding hundreds of peppers.

My wife and I planted six plants last year when we moved to Portland. They got the little white flowers and pepper ball, but the teeny pepper ball always fell off WAY before they were even close to mature. Bummer.

After lunch I was driving back to work, and just happened to rub my eye for some reason. I must have gotten some of that crap on my finger because I damn near went blind. It was the single most excruciatingly painful experience of my life. I was driving and crying. Tears were pouring out. I damn near drove off the road and into a lake. Not because I couldn't see but because I wanted to wash it out so bad. It was totally primal instinct. I HAD to get to water! Well when it finally stopped hurting I had the greatest endorphin rush you could imagine and I felt high for the rest of the day. Crazy, I tell you.
I was cutting jalapenos for work, and then went on a delivery. Pretty much the exact same thing happened; at first I thought I had rubbed gasoline into my eye. Oh yeah, I was stuck cutting onions for the rest of the day. :mad:

You can rub your own or someone else hair in your eye to cut the pain when you do that.

It totally works, but is a little wierd.

can't believe nobody mentioned blair's

http://extremefood.com/product.php?id=137

pure capsacin. 16 million scoville units. a hot! chicken wing is like 250k. A very very hot wing.
Blair's products own Dave's - best assortment of hot products on the market. I never have considered/tried their extracts (linked above) but their sauces are the best you can get.

If you want to try something new, you can't beat this fruit hot sauce, one of my favourite things I brought home from NZ - Waha Wera Kiwi Habanero Sauce $5.95 via mail-order

I get good sized peppers, but my hab plants never get more than about 18" tall and I get about 15 peppers per plant, then they wilt and die in the fall. My mom has bushes that produce year after year in California.

I dig out the area I plant my peppers in the garden and use a very loose sandy loam with mulch mixed in (about a foot deep). If the pepper plants roots get soaked, the plant will die. We have some heavy clay that I mend in the garden, but I take a lot of extra care in the area of my peppers to make sure the area around the roots will drain well. jalapenos don't seem to care as much, but the scotch bonnet and habs do.

This year I got a "caribbean grab bag" that i supposed to be 8 to 10 different varieties of the hottest natural peppers. Should be fun to try flavors.
