Superhot Concentrate

AlabamaJack

I had to figure a way to preserve my superhot harvest over the past two weeks and I decided to simply add a little vinegar and salt to the blended peppers and pressure can them...

I ended up with 14 8 ounce jars of concentrate. The fresh taste of the pods remains and I can use this various ways including making hot sauce with them...

A pic of the jars...2 Dorset Naga, 2 Trinidad Scorpion, 3 Yellow Trinidad Scorpion, and 7 7 Pots...

This will get me thru the winter I am sure...thank you Billyboy for the recipe...

100 grams pepper
60ml vinegar
pinch of salt
1 Tbsp sugar

So...what does it mean if one of your mason jars upon pressure canning is oozing out pepper juice? Should i just dump and redo this one? I just did 5 jars and only one had issues. This batch didn't turn out as good as yesterday. It also appeared the jars were boiling inside. They did all get a good vacuum seal. I heard them pop.

Should i let them be?

Hey, that's cool man, you can come sleep in my peppers as long as you pet the rattlesnakes. They get grumpy if they don't get attention.

All kidding aside, that's why I'm building a wire cage to grow mine in this coming year. The rattlers here are no joke. You grow short leafy plants and you get rattlers under them. Cotton mouths too. Damn snakes are everywhere here.

I'll make sure there's enough room for your sleeping bag though....hehe

You have to try rattler BBQ sometime. It's really good. Only good use I know of for a damn snake unless you make something with the skins. I always thought that looked as tacky as a $2 whore.

I've actually had rattlesnake before. Don't mind eating them, just don't want to sleep with them. Uh oh, I think we have hijacked a mod's thread now. :lol: Sorry AJ.

I keep coming back to this thread, can't get enough of looking at all the pepper filled jars. You folks around here are incredible at doing this pepper thing. I've gotten a lot of ideas and joy from this site. Thanks to all.
