OT...FWIW... Just finished this new hot sauce for the market...

Bhut Peach Hot Sauce...

---

Gonna have to go ahead and place a mail order on that...

I have only grown habeneros and jalapeños for a while now but I'm growing some Bhuts this year. Hoping to end up playing around with some hot sauce for personal use (I don't grow enough to make a ton) but am a complete novice at it. I put the peppers in damn near everything though.

Yea break out the menu. I'm serious about buying some too.

Not a lot of hot sauces left from last year...

I've got a "5 pepper hot sauce", which is basically my hot version of a "Franks" etc... It's made with Bhut, Habanero, Dragon Cayenne, Jalapeno & Hot Banana in Apple Cider vinegar seasoned with Garlic & Sea salt... Basic solid red sauce(hotter than most red sauces on the market)...

Also have a "clear" pickled pepper sauce (think the clear liquid in the bottles of pickled peppers) made with one Bhut, carrots, garlic, dill & sea salt in each 8 oz. jar... zesty dill taste & very hot, my favorite for beans etc...

Got a few miscellaneous jars of pickled Habs & Hot Banana with dill/carrots & garlic....

Ghost Peach, Hab Peach, Tropical Red (pineapple, mango, red Habs) & Maker's Bourbon & Roasted Garlic Hab sauce are in the works...

Also my niece & mom collaborate to make a ton of jams, jellies, essential oils, homemade fudges etc...

I'm basically retired so I'm working with my niece to help her in her efforts to start a Cottage business so she can support & supply her family ( & the extended family) & the local community with healthy, home grown & homemade alternatives to whats out there in the market...

It's a great hobby... that's where I got started with the super hots. Imma doing Trinidad Scorpions, Bhuts, Datil's, Fanali, brown & red Habs, Tabasco, Thai chili & Dragon cayenne along with the usual Jalapeno, Banana, Orange Habs & Sweet Bells this year...

Man I bet that would be awesome over a bacon wrapped filet!

yea I love being able to just step out back and grab some fresh peppers to throw in some eggs, burgers, chili, you name it.

You've got a nice variety going, I don't have enough room for all of that unfortunately so I just have to focus on a few.

A friend told me to look into the Carolina Reaper but it's too late this year to start something like that. I've had a sauce with Trinidad Scorpion and Bhuts and that was awesome. Hot but awesome.

Let me know when you get the peach sauces cranking and I'll be glad to take some off your hands.

I don't have a huge garden... I grow my Superhots in 5gal buckets. I put Habs, Jalapenos, Bananas & Cayennes in the ground. Everything else is container grown (truthfully the super hots are finicky as shite & containers are better for them)...

My garden last year left to right on May 30th, row of cukes on the fence, row & half of squash, 1/2 row of zucchini, 2 rows of bush beans, 4 rows of tomatoes & 2 rows of peppers, 3 rows of okra against the wood line, doesn't make till late...



No pics of 5gal buckets of young super hots or raised beds of early season peas/broccoli/cauliflower/cabbage..

It's all about this...

Delicious. Never bought it from store though. It's actually been a long time since I've had any. Kind of a nostalgia thing now. Like the tgif dinosaurs on Netflix

Contact Whole Foods and other markets like that. A friend in Cali makes natural soaps and shampoos and got into Whole Foods. They leased her a small end cap in one store for a reasonable rate and within a year she had six feet of shelf space in ten stores. They want her in all the Cali stores now.
