I've heard this, but was told otherwise through this site and is a reason to take them out, among the bitter taste you get when you get one in your mouth.:sticks tongue out:Almost all of the food network chefs say to leave the seeds in for extra heat
Aaron
Having a DVR makes this show almost unwatchable for me. I keep rewinding and pausing to inspect the peppers they say that are eating. Anyone else have an issue with the giant bowl of "Naga Vipers" they used for the final challenge?

We just saw another couple informative episodes of Heat Seakers, Atlanta GA, and another place in NM or TX....SORRY! Don't remember 2nd location.
Did you know that when ripe jalapenos are smoked and made into chipotles....that doubles their heat! WOW! I did NOT know that!
We also saw a restaurant owner put a bunch of whole dried chiles in the food processor.....WITH ALL THE STEMS STILL ON THEM!!!!! When he poured out the chile flakes, you can see the 1.5"/4cm long stems in the blend and he dumps it ALL into the pizza sauce. No wonder people are gagging while eating the pizza! Would you want to eat dried chile stems?!?!???

Geez SalsaLady don't you know the stems is where all the heats at? Ya newb.
I talked with one of the producers a while back about the episode ScoDeV is referring to with the de Arbols impersonating the Bhuts. She didn't have a clue and said they go by what the chefs say. Step right up ladies and gentlemen!!

I think Roger is a dweeb, but Chef Aaron Sanchez is a talented chef who prepares amazing chile-laden dishes at Centrico & Mestizo restaurants. He knows flavor, texture and is top tier.
The producers at Food Network set it all up, and the hosts just show up and spend about 5 to 8 hours at the restaurants. The 10 minute video is all chopped up and highly edited.
It is a frat boyish effort that is in the vein of "chile eating contests"" but I do like to see non-Asian and non-Mexican incorporating chile into their food.

Oh Man, Patrick, you mean all this time I've been throwing away the heat??? 
Good way to look at it! We'll still watch it, for the entertainment value. But watching that thing with the stems, I just couldn't take it any more! Had to vent a little~ 
Was forced to watch a couple episodes last night and I may be crazy but I think Aaron calls the Habanero "Chilabanero" and said implied it was w mexican chili.
It was the sliders episode and I just have no clue how the host couldn't get through one of them. They are like the size of a dinner role and my fat ass can eat two at once. Just stick them in your pie hole and swallow. Challenge won.

Yes, it's the start of their second season. Looks like someone finally did some homework in the off season, cuz in the first segment of that episode they said the ghost pepper "is the 3rd hottest pepper in the world". And the shorter guy said that the heat is in the ribs, not the seeds.
WOW~! they finally got somethng right~
Yea, they're still a bunch of whimps when it comes to actually eating hot foods, but it is entertaining.

In Spanish you don't pronounce the H. Chile abanero, he is saying.
The same guy is the one that speaks perfect, native English, but then WAY overpronounces any word with hispanic origin. That's a pet peeve of mine, lol!
You should hear New Yorkers order Italian food.
