So, anyway.... I ordered a few for my "arsenal" (note HERE the reference to weapons)...
Just tried a tiny dab of the "pure habanero powder".
(note HERE that I was too chicken to order any ghost powder)...
Uhhh.. back to that tiny dab...
You'd think I was hit in the face by a flamethrower infused with pepper spray.
Cough-spit-snort.... SNOT FLYING EVERYWHERE (sorry for the mental image).
Good Lord.
Awrighten.
Hal I just made some of my own Habanero powder and that stuff does have a kick :o

That's
exactly what I was thinking --- "This has a KICK" ---
while I was screaming like a baby banshee in boiling radioactive mutant oil...
Don't feel alone. I grew ghost peppers last year. I dried and powdered some. Well, a little was TOO much! Now, if and when I am brave (or DUMB) enough, to use the powder again, I will add a little at a time and taste along the way. :o :o :o

I'll
never use this stuff in a rub/sauce (
much less ghost powder)...
I see you joined the forum
recently --- Welcome aboard!
And -- FYI --- If you hang around here long enough, you might wanna join our (
really fun) Christmas exchange!!!
Just pray I don't draw your name, because someone is in for an
explosive treat this year. Yeahhhh... I'm gonna find some way to pawn this murderous dust off --- Heck, I bought a POUND of it. That's enough for a six-pack of WMDs.
I've never tried this stuff but your description makes it crystal clear as to what should be expected when you taste it.
Sooooo I hate to ask but what does it do the day after. Do you have to sit in a tub full of ice to cool off the old afterburner? ;D ;D
Does "COME ON ICE CREAM!" mean anything? :o :o

Nice catch... but...
I was hoping no one would really
think this through as much as I have.
Heck, I gotta go to work tomorrow...
Just shoot me.
Seriously... I love "hot" stuff. I use El Yucateo (sp?) habanero sauce on tacos.
But, this powder is freaky dangerous hot.
I wish I'd have been at Ka Honu's house when I tried it --- At least, that way, there would have been a
possibility of an
active lava flow to dive in
for some relief.Speaking of Paul... He gave me some Wasabi macadamia nuts that taste like vanilla ice cream next to this stuff.
(Dang... I hope I'm making this WARNING
clear enough for everyone...)
I make this stuff I call Butt Hair Remover. It's not a rub but more like a salsa. What I do is I take all of the hot peppers that I grow and chop them up. Then I divide them in half. I add some garlic and onipon to the mix and simmer half of it in water and vinegar. Then comes the nasty part. The other half is stir fried until blackened. The first time that I did this was in the house! Our poor cats were trying to tear the screens off just to get outside. My SWMBO said that I ever tried to do that in the house again would be the last thing that I would do alive! So now I set up my camp stove outside and stir fry the peppers upwind. I then put it jars and process it. The strange thing is that once you open the jar after it is processed, the longer it sits, THE HOTTER IT GETS! Believe it or not, I have some guys that I work with ask if I am making more every summer. If you have a bowl of chili, all you need is a tablespoon to heat it right up.

Funny how there's
no time to dip up some ice cream.
The initial (fleeting/nanosecond) thought is "Hmmm.... Tasty... Kinda fruity..."
Then, the PANIC sets in. But, where cayenne eases off just before the panic point --- THIS STUFF INTENSIFIES...
And it LINGERS...
Until the serious fear of DEATH takes over...

"I stand corrected, Wyatt!"
A Mans Got to Know His Limitations. Obviously "I KNOW NOTHING!" ::) ::) ::)

So I will never eat Ice Cream again!!!! >:( >:( ;D ;D
This is the hottest stuff I have ever had. http://www.davesgourmet.com/productinfo/daui.php
After my friend loaded up a chip with it and gave it to me I had the most uncomfortable half hour of my life. When I asked him what he thought of how hot it was he told me that he has never tried it. He just bought it to give to people to see their reaction. About an hour later I asked for another chip :o and yes a little drinking on my part was involved.
Well, I can help (but only a little bit)...
First, hal, you're always welcome to any lava you want to dive into, but I'd suggest just going for the pool (where you're also welcome).
Second - I used some of SWMBO's homegrown (very spicy) habaneros I had dried to make salsa today (based on a recipe I got from Pachanga a while back) and it came out great (and a tiny bit shy of excruciatingly hot). I'm guessing we'll have some picante turkey enchiladas for dinner tonight.
The bad news is that each habanero is more than enough for a quart of salsa. I could drown in that stuff before we used all the habaneros that come out of the backyard.
and one of my favorite sayings is, If your gonna be dumb you better be tough...I don't do hot anymore...lol :D
This topic has me laughing so hard...y'all are to funny! Thanks! ;D
I Love you guys, please don't stop being the way you are.LOL I like it Hot!!!!
Going to have to make some. Never tried the dust but would love too. I love heat the hotter the better. Buddy you to grow the Habanero and the white Habanero . They were very good. We use to cut in strips and suck and chew on the strips while we worked. Every buddy use to bring them in to see if they could get one too hot. Never found it. But haven't ate no real hot peppers for a while so may be different know. I notice the hotter you eat the hotter you need. With the wife not eating very hot peppers I have cut way back. But heh summers here and time to get into the action.
