Tokyo Tony Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 I used to have a higher tolerance for spice when I was younger, but now I still enjoy it, I just don't overdo it. For my money, nothing beats Tabasco, especially on your breakfast eggs and home fries. Great way to start your day. Unfortunately, a very small amount of Tabasco or buffalo sauce will really get my sweat glands going, so I try not to eat too much spicy stuff in public because people start staring at me. By the end of a really spicy meal, it looks like I just got out of the shower ;D Quote
Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted September 1, 2009 Super User Posted September 1, 2009 This one is HOT. http://www.hotsauceworld.com/satansblood.html Kinda scary looking too... It doesnt take much to get your mouth going. Eerily similar to getting hit with pepper spray..... ;D I have also been using a 357 Mad Dog sauce used with Bhut peppers. Quite spicy... I dont like to grow really, really hot peppers. The dog seems to think they look tasty. Quote
bigtimfish Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 I love hot sauces. We have one around here called "hell on the red" it's my favorite. The one with the pic above is good too, I eat it on sushi. In the sushi bars around here it's called "**** sauce" ;D hehe. Not really a fan of Tabassco,Franks red hot or Tx Pete style. They just don't do it for me. I wish you guys could come to SE Texas during crawfish season. I use a liquid for my crawfish it's called swamp fire. Mmmm! If my nose ain't running and lips burning it's not hot enough. Quote
gems Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 this thread has made my day. i love spicy food, and i definitely dont mind "ruining" my meal for the sake of hot. i enjoy that residual burn and will definitely be checking out some of the hot sauces linked here. also, looking forward to perhaps growing a few peppers of my own. my neighbor grows his own peppers, and they have so far proven to be the most brutal and amazing i have ever tasted. the grocery store just doesnt cut it! thanks for the motivation!

Super User grimlin Posted September 1, 2009 Super User Posted September 1, 2009 I have about 30 different species of chile plants. About 10 of them are habanero varieties including the famous BHUT JOLOKIA. The hottest pepper known to man. I know somebody who had a drop of hot sauce that included the BHUT JOLOKIA pepper.His tongue swelled up and had a blister for a few days on his tongue.I don't recommend anybody trying the ghost pepper. My best friend's dad who can tolerate hot peppers like they are carrots,tried this BHUT JOLOKIA and he actually cried running for the fridge for milk. ;D Quote
Super User Matt Fly Posted September 1, 2009 Super User Posted September 1, 2009 Thai is about as hot as it comes. Got some peppers in the yard that will give ya the blue flame out the tail pipe as we speak. If I can't taste what I'm eating, its too spicy, I didn't say too hot, I just don't see any point in going beyond not being able to tell what your eating with the peppers. I like to be able to enjoy the food first and foremost. Quote

mrlitetackle Posted September 2, 2009 Author Posted September 2, 2009 i had no idea that there were as many adamant spicy food lovers on here (hot for the sake of hot).... and figured that a lot (if not most) enjoyed the "tolerable" spice to their food. i have many new recommendations (ie. in the hot sauce dept.) to try out...... thanks to all that offered the info!!! glad to see that at least some others enjoy the same "pain" that i do........ and likewise, glad to see that many just like some spicy food in general.

looking4structure Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 I'm with you mrlitetackle.I love hot and spicy food.I haven't had the chance to eat a GHOST CHILI though.The hottest for me so far is an habanero.I eat Jalapenos with almost all my meals. Quote
Super User burleytog Posted September 2, 2009 Super User Posted September 2, 2009 As for the Thai restaurant...we have a Thai restaurant around here that rates a dishes spiciness by American Hot, Mexican Hot, Thai Hot, or Laotian Hot (in ascending order). I thought that was pretty funny. Apparently Laotian food is pretty hot but I've never seen a Laotian restaurant so I couldn't say for sure. What ocean? Quote

BassDeaton01 Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 I like spicy food but not as much as yall obviously.. I mean I love jalapenos, texas pete, tabasco if there isnt any texas pete, and a ton of other hot sauces. But I've never ventured much into the chille world. I think after reading this post that I may give it a try though. That or maybe some Thai food Quote
HossFly Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 'tackle, you really need to get hold of some Dave's Insanity or Blair's Death sauces if you REALLY want it that hot. In fact, everyone on here should experience either......once. Heck, if you REALLY, i mean REALLY want it hot, try Magma or Naga Sabi Bomb.......these two, it's been said, go above 500,000 SHU...... If you can take the heat from these, you're gut should be just about ready to store nuclear waste in it......... Quote
HossFly Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Aww, heck, just try THIS......... http://www.hotsauce.com/One-1-Million-Scoville-Concentrated-Pepper-p/1330ms.htm Quote
seyone Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 UPDATE: Now that my pepper season is over I can say that the ghost chile is the hottest pepper that I grew this year. Unfortunately due to poor weather (Mild temps and too much rain) all of my pepper species were milder than I believe they should have been. My red savina plants last year are still the hottest peppers I have ever grown, but if I had grown the Ghosts last year I'm sure they would have taken the title. I have dried about a dozen ghost pods for planting in the spring, hopefully I have a hot dry summer. Quote

brushhoggin Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 i'm with you, you cant taste if your taste buds are scaulded off. Since when is pain a flavor? Quote
Super User K_Mac Posted November 13, 2009 Super User Posted November 13, 2009 The local Thai House has 4 levels of heat, with the hottest being "Thai hot". It will make me sweat and my nose run a little. I am of the group that thinks if you're not sweating and your nose isn't dripping, it is not hot enough. On the other hand once you go beyond habanero hot I'm not so happy. I encountered the ghost pepper one time and they are too hot for me. Quote
llPa1nll Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 I like things spicy but Im not into burn your face off hot. If I cant taste what I am eating only heat then its too hot, thus ruining the meal. I do however get spices for my BBqing and smoking so I use so ground guajillo, aji limo, and ancho. Makes for a great tasting bbq rub on ribs and pulled pork. That is where I want to taste what Im eating not have it be overpowering. but thats just my preference. Quote
Dalton Tam Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 You need to come to Louisiana.... I can hook you up. I love spicy foods... Have you ever eaten boiled crawfish? Quote
paul. Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 i love hot peppers of any kind. but they have to be pickled. because besides being addicted to hot, i'm also addicted to vinegar and salt. Quote
Big Mike in Fl Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 I would just like to state, for the record, that you're all insane! that being said, I like medium buffalo sauce, and a few drops of tabasco in my chili. you guys have fun frying your taste buds! ;D ;D Quote
