That is based on the "Scoville scale" kind of HOT!
This subject came up today with some fellas as we were eating some Buffalo sauced chicken pizza.
One guy talked of his new Venison chili recipe with Carolina Reapers.
Just got me wondering about the hottest of the hot?!

I sure cant eat like I used to. Doesnt take much to tear me up. The "wall" flavored sauce at Wings Etc is now too much.
As a cheap way to eat hot, try some Chipotle chili pepper. It doesnt start out too bad, but comes in like the worst heat ever in our chili. We had to pitch the bottle it got so out of control.
Fun to watch the hot pepper eating contest. Those people are NUTS!

I once did the atomic wing challenge at the Quaker steak and lube there in Michigan city or at least near there. Had to sign a waiver to even get them served. Don’t know what was in that sauce but man it was hot, but I did get a bumper sticker to say I survived and ate all six wings.
I’ve also cooked with some Peruvian peppers and seven pot chili peppers. A little sure goes a long way but they were great in chili and shrimp. I’ve probably got at least ten different bottles of hot sauce right now. Love trying new stuff and I eat the heck out of chicken wings. If anyone’s ever in Nashville check out the spice shop near the Mexican restaurant. Got lots of good stuff in there.

One of my idiot co-workers brought in a tortilla chip in a box from a gas station. Some sort of a "hot chip challenge." It came with a warning to use a paper towel to pick it up with. He and another gringo each ate a corner of the chip and were in tears and were chugging water almost immediately. Then one of the amigos took a bite and nearly choked. I don't have any idea why even trying that could be thought of as a good idea.
One of my favorite meals used to be from BWW. A dozen wings, half jerk and half medium, with blue cheese and a tall IPA. Just enough heat to cause a little sweat on my forehead, but not take away from enjoying the food. BWW somehow figured out how to transition to bad food and even worse service. That's been really disappointing to me.

I was going to say Pizza right out of the oven but then I saw the Scoville reference. LOL HC, you go past BoomTown regularly. They have a pretty extensive selection of hot sauces. I sent a bottle that was made from Ghost Peppers to a friend in Oklahoma. He called them and ordered a case of it. Not me, nope!! |

There are a lot of novelty sauces out there with really cool labels but most I've seen just end up being mostly vinegar and chili pepper or something of that sort. I LOVE Hooters 3 mile island wings, to me, they are even better left over. In fact, I usually eat the flapper fresh then save the drummies for leftovers because they are easier for me to eat cold. The hottest thing I have eaten is a habanero raw seeds/pulp/skin all of it. I was 20 and didn't know what it was. I know I'm rambling but I've got one more story. Several years ago my wife calls me crying says I need to come home from work right now. At the time we were having trouble making ends meet financially so for me to leave work SOMETHING BAD is happening. I get home and she is telling me her hands and eye are burning I can smell meat loaf in the oven. I had grown some habanero peppers and was going to dry them out and use them as seasoning. My wife thought they were just regular ol' peppers and put them in the meat loaf! She was mad that I didn't tell her they were hot. I'll tell you what though, honest to God in Heaven that was the best dang meat loaf that woman has ever cooked and the best dang meatloaf I've ever eaten. Too bad I won't ever get it again unless i grow some more habanero and figure out how to cook meatloaf! Love hot food I just usually need a bathroom before too long.

In my case it was a sauce, not a food per se. My buddy brought in something into work called "Mad Dog 357." It was, by leaps and bounds, the hottest stuff I've ever encountered.
Knowing that it was supposed to be terrible, at lunchtime I dipped a toothpick in it and gave it a whirl. It was like liquid lava. I drank two bottles of water trying to alleviate the discomfort, to no avail. I hadn't heard of the milk trick at that time, and suspect that it wouldn't have helped anyway. That little spec made my stomach burn for hours, long after my mouth recovered. HOT HOT HOT.
Bizarrely, in spite of warnings our co-workers insisted on trying it.
One guy snorted dismissively before--to our open-mouthed surprise-- eating a SpoonFUL of it. He began hiccuping immediately and despite obvious signs of distress insisted he was fine. He later went home sick.
A supervisor came in and in spite of our warnings ( why did we bother, come to think of it ) took a spoonful and went crazy, going from drinking out of the faucet to opening the fridge and looking in vain for some remedy, before returning to the faucet. Sweating, swearing, pacing, etc.
Victim number 3 was kind of a blowhard, so naturally he took a healthy sample. Like the first guy he immediately turned red & began hiccuping. He also drained both bottles of water from his lunchbox in about five minutes, all the while insisting (in a hoarse whisper) that he had eaten way hotter things.
My friend, by nature a prankster, was helpless with mirth at the sight of all the self-inflicted trauma. I think that if he recalls it while on his deathbed he will grin in spite of the circumstances.

I didn't try it but my youngest brother in law tried something called "the bomb" or something like that, on a burrito last year.
He began sweating, snotting, slobbering, crying. But he finished it and took the bottle back to the cash register and told them he was disappointed that it wasn't hotter. It was pretty fun to watch. No way would I try that.
I like heat but not crazy dumb heat. Normal pepper sauce, siriacha, Frank's,

Jalapenos are pretty much my limit. Gonna try to grow some Carolina Reapers to sell at the local Farmers Market.
