New Prototype

Update from the Devil Duck Kitchen...

Now, everyone pretty much knows that my season has been a bit of a catastrophe this year. However, I did manage to make a prototype sauce for my "Barracuda Breath". Only 5 bottles.

In those 5 bottles, went 95 orange habs, 25 jalapeños, 30 serranos, and 25 tabascos... along with all of my fun spices.

I didn't get any of my limon habs because they are just now flowering. If I had those, this would be a pretty magical sauce. As it is, this is one ass kicker and I'm really proud of it. Not proud enough to enter it in a contest, but proud enough.

Hopefully next year, there will be enough to spread around.
 
damn that's a lot of peppers! sounds like it kicks some ass for sure. i still haven't ever made my own sauce..one day i'd love to try. sucks you're having a bit of a bad season, but seems like you're making the best of it. congrats on the sauce!
 
UPDATE!!!

I just got out of the kitchen....and my eyes are watering, I'm riding an endorphin wave, and I rubbed my eye.

Made a 2nd prototype. Seems like I'm having an extended season here in New Mexico.

Anyway, take the above pepper amounts and add 250 Tabasco peppers to it. :hell:

Ladies and gents... This is one kickin' sauce. I can't wait until spring when my limon habs are ripe and I can add those to the mix!

starting small are ya?
 
Yep. I will have to see how stable this sauce is. That's a whole lot of peppers to go into 5 - 5oz bottles. The ph tested fine (4.2) but I have my doubts that this can be done commercially without jacking up the price per bottle. There's no extract at all, it's all fresh peppers.

Shoot... I don't even know how to make extract!
