Anyone else grow and eat hot peppers?
Got any recommendations?
I'll go through my list...
Habanero and Scotch Bonnet
Disgusting. I figured if I'm gonna be a hot pepper guy I'm gonna eat every kinda hot pepper I come across.
After almost passing out, losing feeling in my face while my mouth felt like I was smelting iron for 15 straight minutes, and halucinating among other things, it was terrible and I won't do it again for a long time.
I can only assume it'd be good as a sauce. Other than that, yuck. Interesting note, they got me high. I guess after that ordeal it just felt good to be alive.
Jellybean Peppers
Another disgusting pepper. My brother and I took extra care with these and wanted to grow them right.
Maybe we grew them too right but I dunno. We both popped on of these tiny pea sized peppers and almost died at the same time. It blew up in my mouth and tasted like caustic chemical burn.
It was exceptionally bad. Not as hot as a hab, but twice as disgusting. The only good thing about this is these tiny bushes grow like 4 million peppers and they're small. So we took a habanero, stuffed it with like 6 Jellybeans, brought it to the barbers and gave some kid a free haircut for eating it. The kid almost died.
He ran outside, started puking everywhere, started slamming his fists on random cars in the parking lot and keeled over.
There he was, laying next to his own vomit, bright red crying after punching random strangers cars in the middle of a parking lot facing an intersection while we waved cars through to let them know he'd be fine.
I paid for his haircut.
Bermuda Pepper
Right now my favorite. It's got some kick ass but it's got flavor too.
Tough to find but once you find some seeds, plant, and dry a pepper you have infinite seeds,
If you come across these, get some, great for cooking.
Lemon Pepper
I didn't like these when we grew em last year.
They were interesting but that's it.
They taste literally, like hot lemons. Citrus fire. Wierd.
Jalapenos
mmmm
Just as good as the Bermudas. You can't go wrong with these.
I completely screwed up fresh jalapeno poppers the first time I made them, and they were still delicious.
Sandwhichs, eggs, breakfast lunch and dinner, these are great.
I also have Jamaican, Charlston, Peppersoncini and some kind of Cayenne. The Cayenne looking peppers we grew last year looked friggin awesome, but they had no heat at all. It was the weirdest thing.
Nothing, no heat, but looked like they were on fire. So I use to eat them to prove to friends that it wasn't so bad. I'd down 3 at a time, which tasted like regular red peppers, and act like it's no big whoop. Then I'd give them one with the heat. Good times.
Chilis
Another one of my favorites. Not as good as the jaleps or bermudas IMO but good none-the-less.
I can walk around and nibble on one all day. They're up there with cayennes in my book. One of the best peppers but not the best IMO
So anyone else eat peppers?
If not try some of the ones I mentioned.
I also keep a jar of Pepperoncinis in the fridge at all times.
Me talking to myself about hot peppers is makin me hungry.
