@#$% that burns!!

LMAO

I wanna see him do that with something hot! hahaha!

Course, I'd throw up too, if I drank a half litre of vinegar. How daft.
 
I went to the CluckU chicken site, and they make you sign a waiver... Says the sauce is made out of fresh peppers... And they make you sign a waiver...

Can you say Gimmick... bring on the wings!

Oh wait... you guys have eaten there... is the sauce good? Maybe the food is disgusting and that's why you need the waiver??? haha

I'm sure it's a misquote. There's no way any of the sauces at any chain could be made from fresh peppers.


Nick caught a great story of a Radio Show guy drink soup with a spec of Blair's 16 Million Reserve on air.

There's pictures there of the guy's agony, and an MP3 of the whole show. It's amazing how unprepared this guy was!

I have never had the opp to even taste Blair's but having tasted tons of extract sauces... I'm not sure you could pay me to do that.

I mentioned this topic to my husband, and he told me this story last night.

When my stepson was about 3, they were at a Chinese restaurant. There was a bowl of the usual Chinese hot mustard on the table (probably mild by everyone's standards on here ;) ). My stepson kept asking about it, and my husband kept telling him that he wasn't going to like it, that it was hot, etc. But he kept wanting to try it, but my husband kept telling him "no, you're not going to like it."

Well, when my husband turned to give the order to the waitress, my stepson quickly stuck his finger in the mustard and put it in his mouth. He was grabbing water, he was crying, etc. My husband is trying hard not to laugh and tell him "I told you so."

A simple lesson in why you should always listen to your parents. :)
 
lmao... some parents are just plain evil!

We were at the market last Saturday and this fellow comes up to the booth with his 2 year old son...

Daddy, the chilihead is tasting away and the kid is motioning that he wants a taste too... So Dad reaches into the Fusion Fire, and pops the sampling stick into kid's mouth.

I was expecting crying, screaming, tears... nada.

The kid pulls the sampling stick holds it up to Daddy and says one word...

MORE!

I just about died!

And anyone who has tasted the Fusion Fire knows why!

T
 
LOL That reminds me...

The guy who heads up the chile heads group I go to each month is a grandfather. Apparantly his grandson has inherited the chile head gene, because he'll just stick his finger into a bottle of hot sauce and it won't bother him after tasting it.

But he told us of one incident where the grandson stuck his finger in one as usual, but must have bitten into a seed. All of a sudden, his face is turning red, he's crying, and he's LICKING THE CARPET trying to get the taste out of his mouth! He was telling the story and we were all DYING.
 
LMAO

Speaking of dying...

Ya know, that's one thing about sampling hot sauce.

I must have had at least 10,000 people tell me that they'll die if they taste the Goat Pepper (Hurricane) Mash, and nobody ever has.

You'd think that someone, just once, would have the good grace to at least fall down.

Bubba, maybe you can talk about that contest you won. The pictures are awesome, but I'd love to read a blow by blow narration of the event. Details of who died on what sauce. Which one almost did you in, etc.

I collect hot sauces. While I think I can take a little heat, I'm not cocky about it, nor do I taunt cooks or chefs, as I used to work in the restraunt bus. Anyway, I like to try sauces as well as collect them (kind of wimpie if you don't) and have tried some pretty hot ones, like Dave's, Toxic waste, Alberta Crude, etc.

I am cautious with extract sauces (with good reason). Anyway, I was up to about 20 unopened bottles that I had extras for (for my collection) and was trying a new one every night. I got to Endorphin Rush which, while not the hottest, is an extract sauce, and caution should be used.

As I was putting this sauce on my rice, I was talking with my wife and wasn't paying attention, and smothered my rice with this stuff (like I do with normal habanero sauces) and started taking several large bites of this stuff. After a minute or so, the heat caught up with me.....

Man! Don't ever forget what sauce you are handling! I had prided myself in the past of having a healthy respect for extract sauces. This burned me up. My scalp was sweating! Fortunately, after a couple of minutes, the endorphins kicked in.
 
Say, staffing, I gotta ask.

How much Dave's would you actually use in a bowl of chili, or a single serving rice dish???

We often get customers asking us how our Hurricane Mash compares to sauces such as Dave's or worse... Blair's craziness, I'd rather have a better answer than "gee, I don't know, I don't use them".

Tina - Your hurricane mash has a similar heat as Marie Sharp's Belizean Heat or Beware - As for how it compares to Daves and the like the main difference I found is that you can actually taste the peppers in the hurricane mash and with the extract sauces, the capsacian extract tends to stick around your tastes buds ~ making the experience that much more painful. I put hurricane mash on my eggs and mix extracts in pots of chili

It's a standalone in other words... You couldn't or wouldn't just eat an extract alone?

But why not? Extracts are great as appetite suppressants. You're so busy running around the house with combustibles in your mouth that you burn off calories, and just plain forget to eat.

Ya know... Some of us (read "I") LIKE eating!

Sleep? What's that?

Considering the small batch operation we have, we don't get much of it. We actually just did a small show in Maplewood, NJ last weekend, and were up 2-3 days just making sauce. It was worth it though, we completely sold out. Between endorphin rushes from batch tasting and brain freezes from Slurpees, who needs sleep?

You sold out???

Either we're making too much product for our shows or I've really gotta get incorporated Stateside so I can do American shows!
 
Nope, we truly 'sold out' of everything. It was approximately 110 bottles of the various heat levels we sell. We cooked up a bunch of wings in a turkey fryer right there, which of course, attracted people (it's a great gimmick, which is another reason I like the smaller, outdoor shows). Needless to say, we were VERY happy.
