>Bhut jolokia pepper
I shove several of these up my wife’s anus and vadge when she’s been bad

misleading for bell peppers honestly.

Are bell peppers considered spicy?
The bell pepper is the only member of the genus Capsicum that does not produce capsaicin, a lipophilic chemical that can cause a strong burning sensation when it comes in contact with mucous membranes. They are thus scored in the lowest level of the Scoville scale, meaning that they are not spicy.

>>18292130
no idea where i'd find a bhut jolokia, but I've eaten habaneros. they have an amazing sweet canteloupe flavor in that split second before the pain hits.

>>18292205
>misleading
>proceeds to verbosely explain that OP's list was perfectly accurate and not misleading in any way

>>18292130
Where's my reaper option?

Poblano

Habanero, Ive had it before with jamaican food, after a few bites it gets overwhelming

>>18292130
Homegrown carolina reaper. Excited for this dude to be ready. Got scotch bonnet pinks, wartryx stretch red, apocalypse chocolate, and 4 mystery superhots ready in a couple weeks as well. Pumped.

>>18292130
The "people" that enjoy hot peppers are the same ones that fantasise about a woman kicking them in the balls.
Why do you want to be in pain bro? Why can't you enjoy nice things?

These taj minion army peppers are about as hot as I'd enjoy eating straight, depending. Maybe around 2x habanero. Very delicious on food and quite the looker.

>>18292130

>>18292205
How is that misleading? The entire point of having a pepper with no capsaicin on an example list of reference points for the Scoville scale is so you can have a zero.

>>18292130
I've had one of those jolokia peppers as a dare. It had me coughing and crying on the floor, barely able to breathe.
It's good for a laugh but I wouldn't even consider it edible food.

>>18292306
admit, that does sound rather exciting. More exciting than anything I’ve got going on at the moment and I’m not even kidding

The habaneros I tried before have a very "chemical" taste. Compared to something like scorpion peppers which (if i remember right) are hotter but have a fruity flavor, I think that makes a big difference instead of just talking purely scovilles.

>>18292148
what about jokia pepper?

I've had this little pepper it was pretty tingly

>>18292310
Peppers have a nice taste ragusea

>>18292130
Bros we talkin scovies?!

>>18292851
>No cramming reference.

Terrible and not funny.

I couldn't handle a scorpion peppee but I've had stuff with ghost pepper and didn't mind it, so somewhere in there I guess? Wherever they rank. I also eat habaneros frequently.

>>18292867
Oh it wasn't scropion pepper, it was a small little black one, idr what it was called

I tried a 1500000 scoville sauce once. Won't pretend I enjoyed it. I lost an afternoon being unable to do much more than sit around feeling bad. But I don't regret it, because now I know what it's like.

>>18292306
Where do you get your seeds from?
I was thinking about starting a scorpion or related

>>18292130
Anything above scorpion, if you can handle it, is just pain and tasteless...

For enjoyment scotch bonnet or habeneeo is peak. Scotch bonnet is my favorite.

>>18292949
https://towns-endchiliandspice.com/ has loads of fun and unique varietals. They've been pretty good seeds.

And pepperjoe.com for more standard varietals. If you spend enough they give a mystery pack of superhots which is kinda fun.

>>18292130
Nothing spicier than a scotch bonnet.

>>18292310

not with me, i just like spice

I wanted to try habanero sauce, so I grabbed a bottle, but I was shopping at Ralph's so it ended up being habanero sauce for white people and it wasn't actually hot. I think I ended up dumping the whole bottle into a meatloaf or something and it ended up pretty good though.

>>18292860
Bro there's a cramming reference on the bottle. You troon.

>>18293744
The word cram was not used.

>>18292228
lmao

>>18292130
Anything hotter than thai since at that point it's just heat and not the taste of the actual pepper.

>>18292130
It's easy to eat them all but then you will have to face the consequences

Thai or habanero are the best for adding a little bit of extra flavour to your meals. I grow my own habaneros but I've never got a good yield of hot fruit. I'm going to grow some hotter ones again this summer. Honestly Thai ones are the best overall.

>>18292205
Does the point (0,0,0) really deserve to be on an X-Y-Z graph?

>>18292130
I use to be able to eat them all but I did notice peppers like Habeneros have an oil that burns your stomach and its very uncomfortable.afterwards

>>18295502
“You want me to hold the ghost peppers between your knees?”

>>18293013
>And pepperjoe.com for more standard varietals
Don't buy from pepper joe, a ton of their seeds are mislabeled.

Guatemalan insanity pepper.
"The Merciless Peppers of Quetzalacatenango … grown deep in the jungle primeval by the inmates of a Guatemalan insane asylum."

Literally no point eating that crap when you know it's just the capsaicin concentration that's responsible for the heat. Just down some hot sauce, go to hospital/die and be done with it.

>>18292130
well im eating veggie pot pie with ghost pepper sauce on it so.. bhut jolokia i guess.

>>18292228
>>18292320
Idiots bell peppers ARE spicy, ill post
the definition once again so you guys might understand.
The bell pepper is the only member of the genus Capsicum that does not produce capsaicin, a lipophilic chemical that can cause a strong burning sensation when it comes in contact with mucous membranes. They are thus scored in the lowest level of the Scoville scale, meaning that they are spicy.

>>18292130
fuck off mom, i'm not eating vegetables

>>18292978
Agreed. Scotch bonnets are delicious and even mangoey, but they have a nice amount of heat too.

>>18292130
The highest I go when cooking for other people is Serrano, but other than that I think I max out at habenero before it's just gross heat and not flavor.

I grew Carolina reapers. The hottest thing I think I have ever eaten was a cayenne pepper.

Is this a stupid idea to eat these peppers? Would it be more mild if I dry them and grind them into a dry spice?

>>18292978
>>18293094
Agreed those are still weak enkidu that they only enhance flavour.
Once made a sauce for gnocchi with >2 dozen peppers, all I tasted was heat and fruitiness, gnocchi, tomatoes, spices all gone. Was one of my weirdest eating experiences.

>>18292130
Cayenne, but mostly because of the non-spice flavor it adds.

>>18300559
>cayenne pepper
I grew cayenne peppers in my garden. It was pretty easy to grown them. I tasted one and it was so hot I knew I would have no use for them. I offered them to just about everybody but no one wanted them so growing then was a waste

bell pepper = classic, delicious, crunchy, great in many meals
jalapeno = classic
chipotle = great flavor
habanero = good heat, good taste, great for adding flavor.
ghost = dummy hot, great for adding heat, unique taste.

>>18298341
I don't think you understand what the word spicy means in English. Sweet peppers are not spicy.

I've never eaten a pepper I found too spicy, but I really like intense heat sometimes. I'll say this though, I find tolerance changes quite drastically over time depending how much you eat. Like these reapers which I am painstakingly waiting to ripen. Because I haven't had any since last year, the first few will completely blow my socks off. But as the weeks go on eating them it will get to the point where I have a couple as side veggies with a meal and they'll still be very spicy but nothing like they were. Then as the season ends, I run out and finish off the hot sauces from them tolerance will drop again till cayennes and jalapenos taste fairly spicy.

>>18292207
Pretty sure those are the ones they just call ghost peppers

>>18302729
He must be a eurofag

Are red peppers and green peppers exactly the same except for their colors? Asking for a friend

>>18300426
you will want to die for at least 8 hours. do it.

>>18303315
A green pepper is an unripe bell pepper of some sort. But whether when ripe it will be red, orange or yellow varies.

>>18292130
>Bhut jolokia pepper = 900 billion shu
God I hate people that over-exaggerate for no reason
Bhut jolokia is 855,000 – 1,041,427 SHU

>>18298341
>The bell pepper is the only member of the genus Capsicum that does not produce capsaicin, a lipophilic chemical that can cause a strong burning sensation when it comes in contact with mucous membranes.
Then why do you believe they're spicy if they aren't spicy?
Are you one of those retards who uses the word "spicy" to mean "has a flavor of any kind?"

>>18303370
He's probably esl. Otherwise just totally retarded.

>>18298341
>posts own source that says bell peppers don't produce capsaicin, which is what causes the spicy sensation
>inexplicably comes to the conclusion that this source is stating they're spicy
please seek help

>>18292130
Carolina ripper and Trinidad moruga scorpion, but in form of sauce, so it was only 300000

>>18298341
If I put:
>"They are thus scored in the lowest level of the Scoville scale, meaning that they are spicy."
Into a search engine, the only result that comes up is your post here on 4chan.
Why are you citing yourself as a "definition?"
Being 0 on a spiciness scale doesn't mean it's spicy.
That's like saying distilled water is acidic because it's on the pH scale.

>>18303389
He doesn't understand that bell peppers are included on there as a reference point. It's pretty funny how stupid he is.

>>18303389
The quote is from wikipedia, but he modified the last sentence LMAO:

"The bell pepper is the only member of the genus Capsicum that does not produce capsaicin, a lipophilic chemical that can cause a strong burning sensation when it comes in contact with mucous membranes. They are thus scored in the lowest level of the Scoville scale, meaning that they are not spicy. " this is the exact wording on wikipedia

>>18303401
Lollercopter. What makes me think he's probably also the marinade guy?

Can't go spicier than bell peppers, yo.
I got mad ulcers

>>18296478
Post the comic please.

>>18292130
I can't handle heat any more (tongue problems) but the hottest I managed was ghost pepper cheese

>>18303463
never seen

Thing is if it's just basically capsaicin extract or something added to food then it's just a terrible flavor I don't want to have. There were these ghost pepper chips that seemed good (I wanted it to be a bit too much to handle lest I just demolish the bag) but unlike even shit like your basic flaming hot cheetos varieties this crap was literally just saltiness and the isolated sensation of spiciness with 0 cohesion between flavor and heat, something even brand name hot chips do a lot better with

>>18302890
Your patience will pay off in the long run. Nice looking plant bruv.

>>18293013
>If you spend enough they give a mystery pack of superhots which is kinda fun.

>>18304318
Not recognizing the difference between growing plants and consooming hot sauce. Pathetically sad.

>>18303356
>God I hate people that over-exaggerate for no reason
Clearly it was meant as a joke. Are you German? Germans don’t understand humour like this

>>18304461
>j-just a joke bro!
fuck yourself

>>18292130
mmmmm reapers tasty

where ghost?

>>18305836
Spooking ye mum.

>>18292130
>Habanero pepper = 350,000 shu
its the last one that has flavor, if you go higher the heat actually starts to hid flavor

>>18307676
The flavor of the heat cooks the tongue.

There is definitely flavor in spicier peppers and the capsaicin has an angry flavor that isn't too bad either.

>>18292844
Tabasco? i ate something like that looked like that but it wasn't a Tabasco and it melted my face off

>>18294778
>never got a good yield of hot fruit
that sucks i'm growing habanero for the first time, i did really good with tabasco peppers

>>18307721
May have been Birdseye chili, which sits around 100k I believe.

>>18307747
That looks pretty awesome bro. Good work. I hope your peppers are good

>>18307747
I would suggest adding sunflowers or another plant that provides some afternoon shade. Helped my outdoor peppers immensely.

>>18307765
I agree, this is good advice

>>18292130
i've added 2 or 3 habanero peppers to my hamburger helper and it gives a good challenging spice with a little sweetness.

if you use cayenne pepper it's an interesting spice because every bite feels like it's spicy but it's not as spicy long-lasting like habanero is. cayenne is more of a quick boost shotgun shot.

have any of you guys tried tobasco scorpion? It wasn't very enjoyable in my experience. I consider it more of a party trick product. using it on more than 3 bites is just going to be painful on my tongue and mouth. i think original tobasco and tobasco habanero is the way to go.

>>18307813
It's only 50k scovilles. Grow a tongue, bro.

>>18307815
which one is 50k scovilles?

I challenge you to eat a sandwich or something with tobasco scorpion and eventually it's not enjoyable anymore

I eat habaneros generally and use them in a lot of food. The heat of one habanero in a dish is not very strong in my opinion. If I want a hot dish I'll use several. Jalapenos I also use a lot but I do not really find those very hot at all.

>>18300559
>because of the non-spice flavor it adds.
it truly is a flavorless heat

>>18307815
when I eat a taco or burger I like to apply the hot sauce as I go. you get a full bite of the hot sauce and then you enjoy the chew of the food afterwards. that's the best way to enjoy spicy foods.

>>18307822
The scorpion is only 50k. Normal tobasco is only 2500(lmfao) I enjoy the heat from peppers I grow that are significantly hotter than that. Maybe I'll grab a bottle to see if it holds true.

Taj minion army I grew>>18292314
. I estimate it somewhere in the 500k-750k range. Much hotter than a hab.

Been getting about 3lbs of hungarian paprika, long cayenne, and normal cayenne cumulatively every 2-3 days for the past 1.5 weeks.

>>18307834
Agreed. I enjoy doing that woth fresh spicy peppers as well. With very hot ones you still get that mouth numbing heat, but you aren't killing yourself and one or two peppers can keep the intensity up for a whole meal.

>>18292500
What are you talking about my man, the habanero is the tastiest of the peppers, it has a really sweet, floral taste to it

>>18307824
when I use a lot of jalapenos or §erranos in my food i'll end up feeling some intense pain my lower abdominal area. I guess my large/lower intestine when it has to absorb all those spices.

>>18307843
the reason why tobasco scorpion seems spicier is because the liquid reaches all areas of your tonguebuds and they all experience it at the same time exacerbating it.

>>18307761
they are under a giant sweet gum tree which give the shade from 10 to 7pm

>>18307751
thats it thank you, my sister tricked me into chewing up a few right off the plant, the heat doesn't kick in for a few seconds so i had a mouthful before i know how bad i fucked up. i was like 10yo so my tastes buds weren't prepared

>>18307854
meant for you >>18307765

>>18307843
>Tabasco peppers range in heat from 30,000 to 50,000 Scoville Heat Units
are talking about the sauce or the pepper? if you don't ferment the sauce its considerably hotter

>>18307873
That sounds ideal. You ever get any sweet gum outta that bad bitch?

>>18307889
The tabasco brand sauces. Their scovilles are posted online.

>>18307869
100k isn't to be laughed at I unknowingly ate a brazilian ghost red pepper(1 million scovillerinos) on an empty stomach and it incapacitated me for about an hour from the stomach pain.

>>18292130
>The highest you will go
not very high, higher than most people but when it's all pain and it overrides the flavor and lasts for minutes, I'm not enjoying it at all

>>18304318
is that jay on the left

>>18307902
>You ever get any sweet gum outta that bad bitch?
no, something about the temp wasn't ideal

Hopeful for some spicy peppers today. Will post.

>>18309009
Bummer.

Not much ripe today, except these copay cabai peppers. Really good, really long, medium spicy, heavy producer.

>>18310401
Here's one of my mystery superhots. Big boy.

>>18310408
Aaaand the fairly productive apocalypse chocolate plant. Excited to try one of these dudes.

Scovilles arent real right? Just some dumb scam measurement that some dude tricked everyone into using?

>>18310427
It was sort of, but not really anymore.

>>18310437
i've never seen anything but Scovilles

>>18292130
I've tried a scorpion pepper raw. It was weirdly not hot in my mouth, even though I chewed and such. When I swallowed, though, it turned into a fireball. My body just noped out and I laid down for about thirty minutes, whereupon I puked up lava.

Right now I'm jiving with Melinda's bhut jolokia sauce, solidly hot without being overwhelming

>>18292306
I am more envious than you can imagine

>>18293013
Damn dude this is a great resource! Thanks

Hottest I ever tried was a mystery pepper that I think was Chiltepin with a dark color.
Touched it to my tongue right off the plant because I had never seen tiny round chili peppers like that and I thought it would be mild.
Torturously hot. Much worse than habanero.

Not going that high ever again.
Normal orange habaneros is my limit for "bro let's eat this for fun to show how badass we are".
Chipotles in adobo is my limit for cooking actual food.

>>18293013
thanks for the link. really good pepper seed site
