Those would be great. I use a dedicated el cheapo coffee grinder that I picked up for $10. I grind to a finer consistency that I can shake out of a shaker. I'm not sure how they get the consistent course grind but it ain't from what I use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to try other peppers, Walmart has a good selection in the produce and hispanic sections. And they are already dried. sorry del..............no wallyworld for this guy! 1 hour ago, Grainbelt said: Those would be great. I use a dedicated el cheapo coffee grinder that I picked up for $10.

Whatever floats your boat. Look for a mexican or latino grocery store in your area. They aren't union either but you won't be embarrassed being seen at wally world. And you will be supporting a small business. Asian grocery stores have dried peppers also but not as much variety. And typically the seeds are in the mix, since they have a lot of the heat. Try it both ways, peppers are cheap. Edited October 7, 2016 by delcecchi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the seeds and webbing in for the spicy peppers. I've always took the seeds out of the Bells because I had quartered or halved them before smoking. Don't forget about Serranos for next season! They have great flavor. Habaneros are as spicy as I go and I use them pretty sparingly. With the others I pretty much dump the smokey goodness on whatever I'm eating. Yum!

I just thought you might want to practice and try some different kinds. Getting to be a little late to plant them in the garden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I dehydrate them if I didn't do a big batch I just put them in a ziplock and use my hands and crumple them up till they are in big flakes. If I do a big batch I use something like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow Hunter Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 When I grind my smoked peppers, I use a blender that I only use for this purpose; I picked it up at a garage sale. I tried a coffee/spice grinder but it grinds it too fine, when you shake some out of the shaker the powder flies around and you start sneezing.... I can control the grind with the blender.

Grainbelt Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 I had some dehydrated peppers that I didn't smoke, time to get er done. I'm not sure what kind the little peppers were but wow are they hot. Great on the morning egg sandwich! I have a little apple/hickory mix to flavor them with. leech~~, chaffmj and Jim Almquist 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leech~~ Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Canned up a little hot sauce. Made some milder jars Carolina Reaper for my daughter and her son who really like Hot sauce. Also, made up a few jars of full strength Trinidad chocolate scorpion. I call it, Not for Human consumption! Going to make up some milder salsa tomorrow to share with all my light weight relatives. perchking, roony and Jim Almquist 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put in jar or can in jar for longer storage. They are insanely hot. Drops per dinner of chili, curries or other dinners are used. Good luck!

I store them in canning jars, airtight and in the basement pantry. It's cool and dark in there. I grind them before I use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
