leech~~ Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Fleet Farm was having a sale so just for fun I picked up some warm peppers to try this year. Got a few Carolina Reapers, Scoville heat units: 1,569,300 - 2,200,000 Trinidad Chocolate scorpion peppers. Scoville heat units (SHU): 1,200,000 – 2,000,000 Ghost Peppers, Scoville heat units: 855,000 – 1,041,427 Just for contrast Jalapeno Pepper Scoville rating are only: 2,500 – 8,000 These could bam up my home made Hot sauce, Chili and Hot Wings a bit later this summer!

bobberineyes Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 (edited) After putting a few in the pickling jars and hot sauce they sure turn out good cold smoked and dried out for seasoning. But then again the boobs above know nothing of that.. Edited May 21, 2017 by bobberineyes leech~~ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KEN W Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Actually,I didn't use the word darn.I can't imagine trying to eat a pepper with 2,000,000 Scoville units. 2,000 is to hot for me. leech~~ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbymalone Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Is there anything to these things beyond just straight fire? I feel like any sort of flavor they could impart is buried by flames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would never eat them straight like the little brainless cuties above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duffman Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I just grow them to see how much liquid courage is consumed at one of my gatherings. When somebody get's a little too boisterous, I break out a pepper and a dare. leech~~ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outdoors247 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Me and my BIL did this to my sister. She wasn't boisterous or drinking but very gullible. We gave her a scotch bonnet pepper and said it tasted just like a green pepper, which she likes. Needless to say, she stood by the garbage can spitting for about a half hour. She tried beer, milk, ect... but nothing helped except for time. I felt bad and I'm still waiting for the payback as I know it's coming eventually. leech~~ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
