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.

How spicy do you make that chimichurri? I've done similar recipes but didn't think it was geared towards spicy foods.

I use a teaspoon of my Tri-Thai, not too spicy but a nice subtle heat. The salsa and corn black bean salsa provide the kick.

And with left overs some of this!
 
What kind of fish was that on the 27th? That looks fantastic!
Fresh grouper, I was down in Virginia Beach and stopped by a place that had just brought them in for today's catch. I had a sandwich at the restaurant to see how good it was then proceeded to buy some fresh to take home. The stripper I had the night before was amazing as well but didn't get a shot of it cause I was ravenous!

Usually I cut grouper into little cubes and fry it but this looked too good for the fryer and was greeted with the grill instead. Do you ever use zest on fish?
 
:woohoo: :woohoo:

Hope you bought her some fish too!!

Edit, you just slosh the Walkerswood on there and bake them? Grill them? Do tell!
Salt the thighs, rub the jerk all over and turn the oven to 400, once at 400 put the thighs in for 45 minutes. The same applies to the wings in this thread, amazing and perfect EVERY time!
 
Amazing weekend of weather. So yesterday I started the 1st phase for P.Dreadie Trinidad Stew with my twists and today I'll complete that along with some 3-2-1 ribs.
