F*** In ode to this Thread, As I've popped home for lunch, I decided to try 100% pain in a cheese sandwich. Just 4 little drops on each, spread over the cheese. I've eaten one, but my word... Don't think I'll be able to eat the other. Mouth feels like the skins coming off, and my nose is running! How do people eat this for fun!? I stand by what I said. No flavor to this, just raw chillies and pain.... 100% pain
That's what some of us like though, raw chilli and a bit of burn! Cause her indors can't eat that hotter food, I tend to like to use the sauces mainly for dipping, but I virtually always have some fresh finger/birdeye chillies that i often like to nibble with any meal. Pizza is my biggest chilli weakness, i'll usually chop up 2-3 fresh chillies and add them on and then eat it with some proper hot sauce. Last night I did as much with some Blue Goose from the cambridge chilli co, you get a sweat on but it's good stuff! Bah!
Just looked on line and they don't have any in stock but it was described online as: Got a bottle of the Cambridge chilli company's Blue goose Christmas chilli sauce on the market today. The guy who makes it described it as his hottest ever sauce. It's 65% Carolina Reaper! please log in to view this image Last hottest sauce I tried from them was 25% Trinidad scorpian an TBH that was intolerably hot, so this should be lively. please log in to view this image It is indeed lively, but nice. Bah!
I have no idea how you can enjoy that level of spice. I love a hot meal. I order the hottest or second hottest curry if I go to an Indian, I'll go for the very spicy calzone with the chilli oil if I go to a Prezzo etc. I put chilli and spices in most things I cook. But you are in another world General. You should take part in Chilli competitions. You have an iron mouth and stomach! Have you ever been to Mambo Jambo's and had the Louisianan hot spiced Chicken wings? They were so hot, I struggled to finished them. Everything was running! That was a meal before going to see Russell Howard live. Was a little worried I'd be in trouble.
I'm a fan of hot food, I like the rush it gives you when you take something on that's spicy. My arsehole is not a fan though and causes me considerable issues the day after. It's a delicate balancing act between enjoying spicy food and spending the next day with a ring of fire. The hottest thing I have eaten is a Naga Viper chilli. It was dried out and they guy who "prepared" it left it soak in water for 30 mins before I ate it. I only at the tip of it and I was quite drunk at the time but what followed I can only describe as agony with a pretty good adrenaline rush. I learnt that no matter how much you run the pain stays and also whilst milk provides a bit of instant relief the pain quickly returns. Moral of the story for me is that if someone has to handle something whilst wearing a pair of special gloves it may not be a good idea to eat it.
I eat these things hot and like you it would normally be the second hottest dish at a curry house, Phal's generally are horrible with no decernable taste except chilli powder. I've only had about 4 Phal's and they have all tasted pretty awful but have ranged from: is that it! to holy moley I'll just finish the chicken and leave all the rice covered in sauce ..............I'm dying!!!!!!! That was some years ago and I suspect I'd find it more comfortable now, but allot of the time I am just taking a tiny dab of sauce on each mouthful, not teaspoons full like some ejits in the challenges. It has crossed my mind to take on a chilli comp but to be honest I don't think I want that level of pain. And specifically travelling to Brighton or somewhere else to inflict it on myself seems even sillier. I know that if i eat a scotch bonnet with nothing else then i will feel enough burn as i would rationally want to subject myself too. Some of the sauces I eat are certainly hotter but I only have to do them in moderation. I'll have to give the Mambo Jambo's hot wings a go, how do they compare heat wise to the 100% pain sauce? As I had the 100% marinade and can't imagine them being hotter. That was a classic case of just wanting more and more fire. I had a disappointing one from a stall in loughborough that had some dried Naga's and you had to sign a disclaimer before buying, it wasn't that hot or that tasty. Bah!
100% pain is worse. Mainly because there's no nice flavor. The wings were very very hot, but tasty as well. I was determined to finish them. I dunno if I got a batch of really solidly coated, as I can't believe they would make them that hot without a lot of warning. Mambo Jambo in general is just a class place to go. Spicy food, big menu and massive portions,lots of meat. Right up my ally!
Oh er! FML not my cuppa tea I like Mambo Jambo too, not to mention Pedro's over in chappelfield, the chicken and chilli stack is good there. Bah!
First few times I watched this, my gf and I were in tears of laughter. Then remembered it a few months later, played it again, to the same effect. For anyone who hasn't seen it:
Looks blatantly faked to me. No way she takes a second bite or doesn't spit it out straight away if she really found it that bad! Bah!
Some chillies do take a little bit to fully kick in, and that looks like it might be a sweet fruity one. As I said though, I think it's staged in terms "not knowing" but the reactions are probably pretty close, just over egged it a little.
I stir the sauces into the cooking, works for me. If I'm making a chilli I might use a mild chilli sauce to give the meat a bit of 'background' flavour, then put the weapons grade stuff in later on (obviously using fresh chillis finely cut is better).... I'm guessing here, but I think that Insanity sauce may well be made from habaneros, it's lovely! Try adding a few dashes stir it in and sample it, you can always add a bit more to you own taste... Oh, and if you find that Insanity sauce is too hot for you (I doubt it, but you never know), if I remember correctly, the blurb on the bottle says that you can also use it to clean your driveway!
"The Dave's ghost pepper sauce says it is: "A great industrial cleaner and grease remover" That does make anyone eating it a little mad doesn't it? ....................Bah! I always prefer to have a reasonably hot background flavour and then use the sauces as a dip to pep it up when I want too or to put largish chunks of chilli in the dish to be little sticks of dynamite when I find them! Bah!
