Hot food...what's your limit?

I grow Ghost, Scorpions and Reapers after I pick a big batch of them I dry them out in my smoker for about 40 hours and then grind them into a coarse pepper.

I use it in my sauce, rub and sausage recipes. I also use an 1/8 teaspoon in of it in my spicy kielbasa only 5lb batches and that's about all most people can take lol
Giles I will bring you a care package of various things you can try when I see you this weekend but I suggest not trying them while hunting :smiley_bril:

Damn Carl, talk about giving the farm away! Gonna run down to Scarlett's and get me something to stay warm too?! Lol
 
I've yet to try the ghost pepper but definitely like everything from habanero's on down. Bdubs I love the mango habanero or thai curry, jammin jalapeno isn't there any more and that was good too. Chili is where I like to spice it up for the most part, usually jalapeno's, anaheim, poblano's, etc.. Other than that we use Tony's Creole on just about everything.
 
I used to be into heat because it was just fun to see what I could tolerate. Quaker Steak's Atomic was where I topped out.

These days I like spicy but nothing over the top, just up to the point where I'm just starting to sweat a little. My days of waking up at 3 AM with exploding bowels are behind me.
 
I can take heat, but I'm not a super freak either. At BBWs, spicy garlic and mango habanero are favs. I'll eat the blazin, but it's not worth the toll it takes on my sphincter on the way out. A fresh jalepano is one of my favorite hot treats. I like hot stuff that makes the nose run, but has flavor and doesn't make me miserable.

This is where I'm at nowadays. I used to eat the hottest shit I could get my hands on. But I choose not to get too crazy anymore. Once you get to the patting, instead of wiping stage, swearing up and down for the 100th time you'll never eat that shit again, you have to do your rosebud a favor and give that stuff up.

I love the flavor of Red Rectum Revenge hot sauce. Bought it as a novelty for the name a few years ago but my buddies and I love the flavor. I still switch it up every morning with my eggs. Either green or red Tobasco, or Sriracha
