My obsession with heat and food...JoynersHotPeppers

I have been a long time lurker and finally joined. I figured I'd start posting some of the things I cook or make with the peppers I grow.

First up

This is a Thai Cucumber salad I make with a rare Japanese cucumber I grow, peppers and cilantro are mine as well. I'll take better pictures with the next batch. I have enough stuff right now to do about 10 more 32oz jars.

A picture of the cucumber plants

Twins, both rubbed down with 2 different rubs and contain my 15 pepper blend.

Lobster roll with previous nights lobster leftovers. Contains one of my pepper blends.

Homemade lump crab cakes with black bean corn salsa I threw together. Cake have my tri-thai blend and 15 blend in the salsa.

Sausage and Peppers, Joyner style.

Ok. I will not come in here telling you what to do. Now... can I have some? Can I? Can I?

I destroyed it, used 1/2 a bottle of that hot sauce for dipping. I think my heat level is off the chart, might need to stop eating it for a year to get normal.

Well that hot sauce, while it tastes great, isn't hot, but I don't know how much powder you used. I heard that guy makes good powders.

 

[JoynersHotPeppers]

My ghost powder won the battle, used it in the APF with sea salt and cracked pepper. I cannot believe we have used a 1 oz jar in 10 days, I need an intervention...call A&E.

This is just FOOD PORN !!!!

Not a pretty plate but sometimes it has to be done. Nothing better than a vacuum sealed bag of pulled pork, drop it in hot water and serve!

Nothing special, wings with my mystery wine powder and some vinegar/sea salt fries.

I think my system has come too used to it. I am now trying to use different ones each time I can...growing a bunch of new types this year just so I have new pain to endure!

What do you do with the 3rd ribeye in a pack, you make a steak salad!

 

[roper2008]

All of your dishes look very appetizing. That thai salad looks very refreshing. Any chance of you
posting that recipe? I have a japanese cucumber 'Suyu Long', that would be good for that.

Gearing up and trying to make room in the freezer. 4 deer take up tons of space! Getting ready for grilled loin, roasted baby bella shrooms and a baked potato.

 

[Lucky Dog Hot Sauce]

Cherish that prototype black label -it's the last bottle in existence until I manufacture!


(Yes, I'm jealous)

And if I'm ever in your neck of the woods, I'm *not* gonna ask if you know any good restaurants - I'm just gonna park in your kitchen. I just read through this topic & man - epic.

 

[JoynersHotPeppers]

You are welcome to come over and feast!

(Ditto, if you find yourself in the SF Bay Area, btw)

Wow, you just ruined my dinner! I read this entire thread after a late night at work, before going to the kitchen and realizing my options are basically limited to hot dogs or mac n cheese. Bummer.

Any more details on the recipe for your drunken mussels? I was planning on doing some mussels this weekend and that looks seriously delicious.

 

[JoynersHotPeppers]

ps. those beers will kick your ass!

Easy, get your favorite white wine and pour 1/2 of it into a 6qt dish, stick of butter, 1/4 cup of chives and 4 cloves of crushed garlic...TBS of your favorite hot powder. Turn on high and cook until mussels start to open then, turn off heat and cover, eat how ever you wish.

I did the same with clams and the exact recipe is on my site.

Nice man, rockin the avocado! Going to have to work on these foo foo beers though

 

[JoynersHotPeppers]

Hahaha, those beers will make a man of you yet! The one from last night is 8.5%+ abv, I was hammered by the end of that dinner.
