Hi everyone

[HotSauceBob]

I grew my reapers from seed. So far they look like reapers - a bit different than Ghost or Scorpion. But to be honest, I am looking forward to the Scotch Bonnets so I can make Jerk Sauce and Jerk Rub (when I dehydrate them)

I bought my peppers from them too! Seems like a good company

Tell me more.
Reapers where absolutely my favorite to grow. But I found out that they are really not genuine unless you got them from

So I took a break.
The wife doesn’t want me doing this anymore and had me remove my planters. 😔

The thai peppers I would maybe ferment with garlic. The serrano would be great in salsa or mixed with some chipotles for a nice taco sauce.

Welcome to the pit from the bbq capital of New England, Massachusetts.

Try using Strawberries to knock down the heat, make a jam. That's how I got started.

[HotSauceBob]

My favorite sauces right now are my Cherry Bourbon Ghost (or Scorpion or Reaper) and my Mean A$$ Taco (lots of chipotle, cayenne, and a few Ghost). I grow them all (except the Chipotles - they are better from others, straight from Mexico or Texas).

Howdy from The Great State of Jefferson!! You made a wise decision to jump into The Pit! I tried my hand at making pepper sauces from last year's garden and was pretty pleased with the results. We really increased the number and variety of peppers this year and I'm looking forward to bumping up my game. I'd enjoy hearing your tips, tricks, and advice.

Welcome!

I am growing thai hot peppers and Serrano peppers this year and need some good ideas on what to do with them. Any thoughts on hot sauces?

[FireMan]

Yup, you’ll definitely have fun here. Welcome!
As a BTW, I am growing an Armageddon Pepper, Ghost listed at 150k, this is listed a notch lower at 140. I have been tryin to figger out what to do with the buggers. I also have a Tobasco, jalepeno and habenero, those I have a handle on. The Armageddon I bought only fer the name & now am stumped, especially since fruit are starting to come in.
