It’s really hot.....

I picked up some turkey burgers and a bottle of hot sauce called Ghost Pepper for my post cycling protein. Never heard of ghost pepper before, but I have been eating ice cubes for half an hour. Can’t get the burn out of my mouth.

I’m pretty good with hot, spicy stuff but this was unreal.

It’s good stuff in small doses. :)

...then you'll really enjoy the Carolina Reaper (Scoville scale‎: ‎1,569,300), a bit higher than the Ghost Pepper (1,041,427)... ;)

I eat habaneros roughly three times a week and have a very good tolerance for hot foods. However, ghost peppers kick my butt. It’s not just the numbness and tingling in my face, but also the pain in my stomach that I don’t get with habaneros. I don’t find the next day any different from habs.

You should have followed up the turkey and hot sauce with a gallon of vanilla ice cream...


So that later tonight or tomorrow, when you are regretting your generous use of ghost pepper hot sauce for the second time, you can scream “come on ice cream”!

Someone at work brought in flash fried and pickled reapers and ghost peppers. They were fantastic and not quite as hot as the raw form. I ate around half a pint jar. But I paid dearly "on the back end" for that one. They hurt just as much coming out as going in.

You need to go milk, yogurt or cottage cheese.

I was at the farm show a couple of years ago and was at a hot sauce stand going from mildest to slow death. I got distracted talking to my brother-in-law and dipped a whole cracker filling it with Reaper. The vendor looked upon me with horror as I gulped the whole cracker full at once. He immediately saw the distress in my eyes. To save my manhood I went around the corner and cried like a little girl. Seriously, that was super hot stuff. I immediately began a quest for something dairy or cold. Of course all the lines for ice cream were super long and the suffering lingered for quite a while. Reaper 1 - Steelhead 0.

Drink milk. That is the only thing that works.

Thanks for the recommendations -- dairy,bread, etc. I texted my GF last night and told her what happened. She, being of Indian descent, cooks with a lot of hot ingredients. She told me to eat a banana, drink milk and eat ice cream. So I had a banana and finished off a pint of Halo Top.

It worked, but today the roof of my mouth is very sore, like I burned it by eating super hot melted cheese or something along those lines.

Foods that are mostly water just spread the capsaicin around, sort of like an oil spill on water. Even if your food or drink is icy cold, you're just making it worse. The alcohol in beer or wine won't dissolve the capsaicin, but if you ingest enough alcohol, the burn from hot peppers won't be as uncomfortable.
 
I like the flavor of Ghost Peppers and Reapers much, much better than habaneros. Not as bitter. Instead of growing habs for my sauces, I just buy dried reapers and ghost peppers on amazon now.

For wing sauces, a few reapers, irish butter, Texas Pete's, cayenne, pepper flakes, white pepper, salt, black pepper, cumin, roasted garlic, chopped onion, honey, a dollop of miracle whip and a blender - and you are set.

I had some ghost pepper chips at poker a couple of weeks ago. First one wasn’t bad so I started shoveling them in at a rapid pace before the heat hit me. It was horrible.

You MtNittany are a better man than me. However, your recipe sounds really good.

I work for a beef jerky company. We do make Ghost Pepper jerky. The heat absolutely builds as you eat more of it.

I love that stuff. I have a very bad habit of once I start eating the bag of Jerky I don't stop. LOL. With the Ghost Pepper and even Habanero Jerky I know when I've had enough........

I got some scorpion pepper beef jerky for CHristmas. I was able to eat a couple pieces with no issue.

However, the next two weeks were...interesting
 
Reminds me of in December I was out in Scottsdale for the Fiesta Bowl. Was heading back after a night out with my son at The District. I'd had a few and we thought it would be a good idea to stop at a street taco stand. The guy said, that sauce is really hot. I really don't like hot stuff, but I figured what the hell, when in Rome.... HOLY S%#! Thought I was gonna die. Moral of the story, when the guy selling street tacos says the sauce is really hot, heed his warning.

Ghost pepper sauce is good but the hottest i had was Carolina Reaper paste. A spoonful can do some damage (next morning).
 
I love to put hot sauce on fish, ribs, and wings. But I cut if off at Franks hot sauce. Best tasting without being insanely hot. Some of you are nuts.

You burn your mouth and stomach with that ghost peppers stuff in day 1. In day 2, when you take a dump, you've got FLAMES coming out of your ass. It's like a NASA liftoff!
