When I eat peppers from the garden, it's usually one of two ways. Raw or grilled. Raw is always a lot hotter than grilled, but IMO grilled gives it a little more flavor. Yesterday I decided to try to roast some ripe Jalapenos in the oven, in bacon grease. First of all, they were absolutely delicious, second of all, holy crap were they hot. I mean, they weren't just a little hotter, they were 3x at least, habanero level. Enough that my wife yelled at me after eating one "did you cook those freaking reapers?!?!" Of course if I had did that, she probably would have had difficulty even yelling lol... I even went back and ate some of the raw pods to make sure it wasn't just a batch of wicked Jalapenos, that wasn't it, it was definitely the roasting.
So that leads me to my question, how do you guys like to cook your pods for eating and have you noticed it increasing or decreasing the heat?
