Chilli heads?

Any capsascium addicts out there?

Just had the triple atomic wings at The Lube last night 500,000 scoville units. I am getting myself ready to take on the ghost chille (Bhut Jolokia).

Wasnt The Lube on Man vs Food...

Your a brave man Thomas, a feel sorry for you when you have to take a duece though. That must be painful.

What are those like compared to Buffalo Wild Wings Blazin' sauce? I love the Blazin' wings, but I had never heard of the Lube until today.

Naga Bhut Jolokia. Rock on.

I heart capsaicin. My daily sauce is Huy Fong sriracha liberally used on all savory foods, but I'll often spike eggs or chili with something truly atomic.

The unfortunate thing is that it's hard to get ahold of truly hot sauces that aren't jacked up with pepper extracts. I can taste enough through the heat to detect whether there is an actual pepper under there, and the ones with a lot of extract don't have any real flavor nuances, just heat.

This is on my wishlist.
Which ghost chili sauce are you looking at trying?

Total spicy food addict here. One of my absolute favorite treats is REAL giardiniera from Chicago, the stuff that they slather on pizza, Italian beef sandwiches, etc. It's small hot peppers (they call 'em "sport" peppers although I'm not sure what variety they are in reality), mixed with cracked olives, celery, onion, packed in vegetable oil. When you grow up on the stuff and can't GET IT... it makes one sad. (Boston has no idea wtf real giardiniera is).

Anyway, there's a few pretty good wing places in the Boston area. There's this place called Wing It that has a "suicide" Buffalo flavor that's actually just about right for my level of heat - but I don't get them all that often because I'm trying to cut back on fried goodies

There is a place in Jackson,MS that I believe is called Blazin Wing. My son-in-law is a drill instructor(don't call them drill seargents) in the Marines. He like you think he is tougher than he is. He has a bald head.
We went there is eat and of course he ordered the hottest one they make. We noticed his bald head was completely wet. This was a good laugh.

BW III doesn't make anything hot enough for me to enjoy. Sorry, there is no comparison whatsoever.

Naga Bhut Jolokia.

I don't want a sauce, I want the pepper itself.

Yes the lube was on man vs food, he did the atomic wings which is my everyday wing of choice. I wish I could eat them everyday, but as said before, the real pain is the next day. lol.

That lethal ingestion stuff looks mighty fine. Should be tasty as well.

I love spicy foods, been known to go shopping with, "would that taste good with hot sauce on it", in my mind. I figure if it doesn't make you sweat, then it isn't hot enough. But, I have run into food which was too hot for me to eat before. A buddy took me to a tavern where they had hot wings in three varieties ... hot, extra hot, and "el scorcho" ... yep, that's what they actually called them. HE ordered me some of the later. I tried, but couldn't handle it. 8-o

I LOVE spicy food. And I mean well spicy. I'm a huge Tabasco enthusiast, and as far as I'm concerned, it's hardly even spicy. Dave's Ultimate Insanity is where it's at.

 

[thomas_mikel]

I have replaced Tabasco with Melinda's. And yeah, Dave's sauces are pretty hot. But I am with Madame Psychosis, not a big fan of "extract" based sauces. I actually like the different flavors of the chilies. I am going to have to order some of that lethal ingestion sauce.

If you find a good online source for the peppers, do tell. For the fresh ones, seems you'd have to wait for the July-November harvest. The dried flakes I found here, tempted to order.
The seeds are available in a bunch of places, but the soil temperatures required are way too high to try growing them outside here, and may even require a heating mat underneath if I tried growing in the house.

MM I love me some spicy. However the chili you speak of is a bit out of my league. I prefer a stuffed smoked poblano. My chicken soups generally have enough added fresh spice not only to cler the noses of those who eat them but enough to get cleared out just smelling them.

Blair's 6 AM Reserve Pepper Extract (Extremely Limited)
16 million scoville units. Ouch!

 

[BradSmith]

I make my own hot sause, habaneros, sarranos and vinegar. I never leave home without it. (well sometimes) but honestly I love the flavor more than the burn. I won't sit around like my uncles eating them raw with a towel in my hand wiping off the sweat. Although it is a rush and a bit addictive.
