    When you pick it up, would you get an urge to stab someone? And do you like F Me's water?

    That is a Global knife.  Like them.

    Crock pot?  Mmmm, need to bust that out of storage & get some super soup going.

    Isn't it the salt in the bath that helps the meat take the liquid?

    Regardless, I brine chicken and I friggen love my chicken.  If it's not broke....

    I was told that it's too good a cut of meat to put in there.

    I disagree.  I love it.

    Placed a pre-order for a bottle of Hot Ones "The Last Dab" hot sauce today.  Hoping to have it around Christmas.  This stuff hits around 2.5 million SHU!

    Yum!!
    My favorite hot sauce in the world is Matouk's (It's a West Indian product). They have different hotness levels (the hottest is fucking HOT - of course, it's from India - their idea of hot is superior to the North American concept, haha). I get it at the Great Canadian Superstore, but you can get it online too. The thing that makes this brand so good is that it's not just hotness. It has an extra subtle quality behind that heat that other kinds of hot sauces don't have. It's just plain old more flavourful than any other hot sauce I've ever tried.

    I'm a big fan of any hot sauce made in the Caribbean/west indies!

    I tried frying my own corn tortilla chips for a nacho dinner...
    Wow!  So easy and so good, I may never buy chips again!
    It's a revelation, like back in college when I bought a block of good cheese and shredded it myself and never went back to shredded bagged cheese.

    Never done that.
    Tried making my own tortillas a few times and wasn't happy with the outcome.  They weren't bad but weren't good, either.

    Yes!!!! Love that you did this. Amazing right? Solid crowd sourcing here.

    I owe you a debt of gratitude cliff! Delicious and easy, a total no brainer that I had never brained.

    I’ll have to check them out. I usually have about 4 or 5 bottles of hot sauce in the fridge at any given time.

    I gotta admit though, The Last Dab scares me a little. This video of Hot Ones superfan Brett Baker giving it a try looks painful.  Watch 1:20-1:30 specifically.

    As rgambs mentioned, 2.5 million Scoville can fuck you up. That's equivalent to commercial grade pepper spray.  And while I have eaten wings made with pepper spray, they were diluted down to about 850k - 1.25mil.  And they were painful!  Maybe I'll do my own tasting video... with a toothpick, lol.

    I have gently touched my tongue to the inside of a fresh Carolina Reaper, and it was no fun.
    It burned intensely for about an hour, at which point it lost sensation and taste for a few more hours before returning to normal.

    Thanksgiving coming up - I have made a tradition of frying the bird now. And it's worth every goddamn second of the shitty cleanup.

    I am headed to VT to see my family for Bird-day.  I thought about getting what is needed & frying the bird.
    Decided against it for a number of reasons but this is still something I want to try.
