grumpyvette Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 ABOUT 30 YEARS AGO I was cutting & dicing up a big bunch of HABANARO peppers for chilli and had the oils all over my hands , I was sweating and not thinking rubbed my eyes, I spent the next 30 minutes with the shower running cold water in my eyes with in seconds of that dumb move, I thought Id been blinded, but it was more like tear gas, or at least non-permenant thankfully but I never want to repeat that stupid move. luckly once you cook the peppers and add the other ingrediants they don,t burn nearly as badly as the concentrated pure juices do, but a dozen or less in a couple gallons of chilli will raise beads of sweat on your forehead btw want some good chilli 3 lbs chop meat(hamburger) 1 lb finely diced cheap stew meat (diced cheap beef) 4-10 habanaros finely diced (start low the first time) 1/2 lb bacon finely diced two large spanish onions finely diced 1 cup molasass 1 pack chilli spices two cups tomato paste two diced tomatos 1 large can spaghetti sauce 1/4 cup brown sugar 1/4 table spoon black pepper 1/4 table spoon red pepper two large cans chilli beans one large cam B&M baked beans add a couple cups of water and simmer & stir frequently on low heat (barely boiling temp)for several hours untill totally cooked, serve as topping on your favorite cooked rice or PASTA I generally freeze several 1 gallon zip lock bags full and save them for later thats why I make a good deal at one time, makes for a quick dinner , cook pasta and microwave the chilli and you have dinner in 15 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperKid Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Ever try one of those Jolokia (or something like that) peppers? They're supposedly the hottest in the world. My brother had some and gave one to a guy he works with. The guy ate about half of it and fell to the ground shaking. Some of those peppers are dangerous.

SteelToad Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I grow a small field of hot peppers (habanero, tobasco, serrano) for making hot sauces, seeds for growing, and for drying. If I'm working with those and have to go to the bathroom, I'd rather just wet my pants, it's not worth taking the chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garvice Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Man, I know what you went through, I have done that myself. It hurt to wear underwear for the rest of the day/night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
