Explain 'sanitary sewer' to me.

Sometimes, the weather service forecasts partly sunny during the day. Why don't they forecast partly moony at night?   If a person is NOT being uncouth, is he being couth?   If a person is NOT being disruptive, is he being ruptive?   If baseball has a short stop, why isn't there a long stop?  ...

I was told the sweetness of a pepper that is ripened off the vine does not increase. What say the court?

Yup.

I've done a lot of reading this afternoon. You would think (at least, I would!) chipotles (genuine 'real McCoy') would be easy to find in south Texas. Not so. And not a lot online, either. Some, yes, but not an abundance of choices. I'm seriously considering producing genuine chipotles and...

Thank you, Sir.

Will that make for better flavor?

I have a commercial grade dehydrator and a commercial grade smoker. I have the equipment to cold smoke and hot smoke. Now, all that being said...   The way I've been making chipotles is cut the tips off to allow the moisture to escape, smoke them for 8 to 10 hours and then dehydrate them at 135...

I've been removing the seeds and placentas from that bag of Hatch chilis my wife bought the other day.

Bells, jalapenos, poblanos and Hatches are on my list for next year.

I'll be growing some poblanos this coming spring!

I was looking at those today.

I recently stumbled on a recipe for Carne Adovada. It calls for New Mexico Chili peppers. Never heard of it. So, I started my 'homework'.   My wife found a source for dried whole and bought a bag. They run about 6 inches long, typical long tapered peppers. Being whole, all the peppers are still...

If there's anything that will teach you patience, it's growing peppers. Pull the top off a cold beer. They'll ripen eventually.

Hello!   68 yr. old native of South Carolina relocated to south Texas. Been growing peppers since my first wife's grandfather taught me how 40 years ago. Never have ventured outside the box (common garden varieties), but I'm about to. I'm in zone 8b, so I'll have a lot more time than I did at my...
