sport peppers

Recently had a chicago hot dog... and it had 2 sport peppers on it. This was the first I had heard of a sport pepper. Try finding them at a grocer in NY. Impossible!

You can buy them online at a store that sells hot sauce and related products. They're only $3.95 a jar and shipping is reasonable, too. Gee, I wonder who that hot sauce retailer is? I heard it was owned by some intellegent, good looking dude.

dragon i got a question for you....several months ago i bought a bottle of the blair its either 5 am or 3 am...long story short the jar has blair and the number on it in gold....well i was looking at it the other day and the sauce is like leaking out of the bottle.....so i took all the wax off of it and was cleaning it up and the only thing that is on the bottle is like a cork...do you know where i could find a jar with like a bottle dropper on it to secure this stuff so it dosent get all over the place?? i would need something that i could travel with to go to cook offs with.
thanks in advance for you help.

I sell a product to chefs all over the country for just your kind of application. It's called Pure Cap and it's a lot less expensive than Blairs 3 A.M.

What makes it work is that it packs 500,000 SU and it'll heat up anything without changing the original flavor or aroma of the dish. It comes with an eye-dropper so you can control and repeat the level of heat you want. A 2 oz. bottle is $13.95 plus S&H.

Colour me crazy, I hate the taste of those additives, man, they're worse than aspartame... Is it just me???

Right on Tina! I'm not a fan of capsicum extract type sauces either. Sure it gives powerful heat but everyone of them extract sauces i've tried I can tell instantly because of a funky oil flavor that appears in extract sauces.

If i want more heat I use more habs. Chiles just taste better to me. And give plenty of heat.

I see the cap extract as catering to the machismo crowd...."mine's hotter tha yours is...."

The primary reason to eat chiles is the flavor of the chile...no flavor, no chile.

If you really want to test your machismo, put a soldering iron on your tongue.

lol! Man, Willard, I'm with you!

It's funny, I see chileheads everyday, and there are all sorts of us.

But the ones with no staying power, except for the Gods who simply don't react to the caps, of course, are those who are trying to hurt each other with the hot stuff... There's a point in every chileheads life, where they either destroy their stomach and can't ever eat peppers again, or they finally get beyond the heat to where we are... It's worthless if it's just hot, it's also got to taste great; and that's why folks like Kato and my beloved Peppermaster don't have to put new labels on their bottles every year. ;)

And for all those jr. chileheads who think that just because it just burns, there can't be any flavour... Keep eating the chile's man, because the more heat you can handle the sweeter the peppers are. Peppers of note, the red savina and the Bahamian goat.
