Here it comes!!

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

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:

Sooooooooo.....whithout any further delay......let the mayhem commence!

Into the SS sink we go for de-stemming. Just look at those little beauties!!

YESSSSSSS.......396 orange rectal bombs.......and they're ALL MINE!!!

How do I know there are 396?

Because I COUNTED them!!!

Here's a gratuitous shot of my 60's model Waring blender and ANOTHER 100 habs drying in the RONCO:

Let's see.....If I put them in on Tuesday....and they were ready by Friday morning.....




Um...... I'd say just about 56 beers worth.....give or take a few bloody mary's.

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....

The end is just the beginning!!!!

Nice posts !
