6th Annual Wings of Death Contest / Wingfest

[STEbbq]

So, what is the standard application of sauce per wing here? Three drops per wing? A single dip in a standard sauce dish?

Basically, how do you prevent one guy from eating twice as much death sauce with a fully-loaded dip as the next who might just dab it on with a toothpick?

[ssandy_561]

Large plastic container with a snap on lid. Put 40 wings into the container. Pour the entire 5 oz. container of hot sauce into the bowl. Put on the lid. Shake vigorously for a minute or so. Serve up the wings. Last in line usually get more sauce than first in line. Slackers can’t be choosers. 😆

Same container? So you end up with 12 rounds of wings and 12 sauces all mixed by the end? Or is the container washed between rounds?

[ssandy_561]

STEbbq the container was rinsed and dried in between sauces.

ssandy_561 So you maxx’d out at Da Bomb?

I can take hot sauces up to about 8 better than I used to, but over 8 not nearly as good as I used to.

[ssandy_561]

Da Bomb is only sauce 10. According to science sauce 11 (Taco Vibes Only) and sauce 12 (The Classic Pepper X) are hotter. Da Bomb is the worst sauce though. All other 11 sauces are natural ingredients only. Da Bomb is made with hot pepper extract. It makes it especially harsh. Da Bomb just hits you extremely hard and instantly. And after eating Da Bomb you have set your mouth on fire and the last two sauces don’t seem as bad.

I bet if we skipped Da Bomb and went straight to sauce 11 it would have seemed extremely hot just like Da Bomb did.

A few years ago, at a fair, I had a vendor’s hot sauce that started me hiccuping, and coughing, and my eyes watering. I think I would have been okay with that if it tasted good, but it was all chemical heat, with nothing to draw me in to it.

After I regained my composure, I thanked him for the sample and went on my way.

Scoville units listed for each sauce we had this year.

Out of my league. Lol.

This is like a giant episode of First We Feast. Great festivities

That YouTube series is fun to watch.

[realdocBBQ]

Wow, that looks like quite a festival!

Although you said that Da Bomb hot sauce was the hottest thing you've ever tasted - then there are two more sauces listed higher on the Scoville scale. Explain? Or do the other ones not 'taste' as hot as the Da Bomb sauce? Just curious ssandy_561

[ssandy_561]

The other 11 hot sauces are all natural. Da Bomb uses extracts to make it hot. The extracts make it especially harsh.

Also once you eat the Da Bomb your mouth doesn’t recover and everything you eat after it doesn’t seem so hot.

I’m sure if we ate sauce 11 or 12 without eating Da Bomb first they would have seemed a lot hotter.

What an awesome event!
