But to each their own

Well I agree with the cure to meat ratio too!

The revised recipe looks pretty good. Where do you get the ground ghost pepper? I've seen it online but it's expensive.

I got mine from Firehouse Pantry a couple of years ago.  I believe that The Spice Sage also has it now.  Both are excellent on-line suppliers for spices you can not fined in your local grocery stores.

So...have you actually made this George?

Yes I have done two batches of this recipe.  The second batch I shared at a fund raiser down in SD where I did a Texas style BBQ.  I had folks comming back for seconds and thirds on these puppies.

I am bummed out you drove by and didn't say hi.

Check out volcanicpeppers.com.  Not cheap, but you don't need much.  I have four 3/4 oz containers of their volcano dust at various levels.  Enough to last me for the rest of my life!  A little Bhut Jolokia goes along way!!
