    Awesome.  Wondered what a serious hot sauce person would think.  I'm never buying that, although I would have a small amount on something to try and laugh.

    Was it as horrible tasting as everyone makes it out to be?

    when I was on the FD, the “guys” paid another guy 100 bucks to drink a WHOLE BOTTLE of dave’s insanity sauce. he nearly died. I asked the on duty captain if he had thought to maybe put the kibosh on that. he said, “hmmmm, maybe I should have.”

    It doesn’t have much of a taste profile; built strictly for heat.

    I've been playing with fire lately.
     I've bemoaned extensively the loss of my entire pepper crop to a fuckwad deer this past season.  I finally ran out of 2017's cayenne peppers, so I threw what I had in the grinder for hot pepper flakes...what I had was Scotch Bonnets and Carolina Reapers.
    Woweeeee!  My first experience with using them directly, it was quite uncomfortable.  I made tomato soup and added two shakes...here I am  noodling a piece of pepper around on the tip of my tongue as I am wont to do with any small bit of something in a soup, and suddenly it occurs to my tongue, and then my brain, that this is no cayenne pepper!!!  It only lasted about 10 minutes, but...damn.

    Lol.  Cooking with Reapers seems like a poor idea! 

    (I would enjoy trying but imagine most would not)

    They have pungency and flavor to match the piquancy, I've never tasted another pepper to rival the floral/citrus punch they have.  If properly diluted, they are amazing in practically any sauce.  Even properly diluted though, you have to like it pretty hot lol

    I'd love it if they came out with a half-heat version.  I know that Reapers are a cross between 2 capsicum chinense varieties, the red habanero and Trinidad Scorpion, I think.
    Ghost peppers (bhut jolokia) are a cross between a chinense and capsicum fretescens...I really think the ghost pepper is incredibly bland, so I would be leary of crossing a Reaper with a frutescens to temper the heat...I wonder if a cross with a capsicum anuum is likely to work?  I'm sure there's some interesting genetic stuff going on there.

    Probably there's already a capsicum chinense variety in some local Asian cuisine that has the flavor with half the heat and I just don't know about it.

    Verdict on the buttermilk bath for the birds?
    Meh.  Not a big difference between the dry brine and this, imo.  If you have issues with drying out your bird, go for it.  
    They were grinding either way.
    Had to break out the large cast iron since we went side by side this evening.

    Looks like broccoli rabe. If so that sandwich you made is incredible. Dinic’s rules.
