Paul's freezer has reached capacity........so it MUST be time to can some peppers!!! :dance:

This year, I grew 5 orange habanero plants and 3 cayennes. I've mainly been dehydrating my habaneros for powder...like this:

But, I did manage to stuff some of the little beauties into gallon-size freezer bags......along with the cayennes:

WOW

I just drank a shot of Hell Fire Hot Sauce brine!

My heart stopped beating for what seemed like a lifetime.

In a couple of hours I get the real pleasure as it comes out the other end sitting on the throne. I always loved that 2nd burn.

I've just started growing my first chilles and been eating up the growing threads. As they are slowly growing it got a bit boring and I was thinking about what to do IF (big IF !) I got a wagon full of peppers in the end.

Then I found this thread.... :eek:

The end is just the beginning!!!!

Nice posts ! :onfire:
