Krink, I remember you talkin about a recipe for this and low and behold I was at some place the other day and they were sellin it so I bought a jar....

It is almost like the same shit I would get called "Sweet Fire" when I would dead home....This one particular town sold it and it was like sweet pickle chips but with the jalapeno added...Good stuff!

I ran out of my homemade last year and craved the shit
so much that I took a chance on some store bought. Fuck...
what a waste of money that was. This year was a much better
year for jalapeno's and I was able to can 3 batches. If you use
just jalapeno's for the relish, it's really tastey but surprisingly
very little heat which is ok. I also had a huge harvest of what
I'd reckon to be Tabasco peppers and had to find some use for them
so I threw them in with jalapeno's to make the relish. Batch #1
with all jalapeno's, Batch #2 had 3/4 jalapeno's 1/4 Tobasco,
batch #3 had about a 2/3 to 1/3 ratio. Batch #3 will make you
sit up straight and take notice. Smear a generous amount of this shit
on your burger and I guarantee you'll need a beverage handy.
This relish is so simple, peppers, salt, sugar ,vinegar, period.

Be careful with those tobasco peppers...They will burn a hole right through your tongue!

I douse everything with Tobasco sauce and figured a little tobasco pepper aint shit, boy was I wrong! My buddies dad grows them in his backyard and when we was workin together, he would bring a bag of em to work...I would nibble on em while running if I was tired and it worked to battle the sleepiness...

I'd be happy to send you some seeds if you want to
give it a whirl next year. I think it was a couple years
ago some garden center was selling these starter plants
called "super chilies". They grew like crazy and produced
atleast a 100 peppers a plant. The peppers that got set aside
to dry ended up being the seeds I used for 2008. They
germinated easily and I think I had about 16 plants worth
growing this summer. Once they get going, you're going to
have a shitload. Actually takes a bit of time to harvest them
as you have to snip (relax Snippy, not you) every pepper off with
a scissors and when there are 40-50 peppers per plant it takes
a while to harvest (the first of what could be a half a dozen harvests).
Most hot peppers grow in a dangling fashion, these Tobasco peppers
grow pointing straight up, erect..er..like a boner. The plants grow
tall enough that staking is a must which is no big deal, just know
you need to do when they get 2 feet tall. Peppers are perennials if your
climate is friendly. I yanked up 4 pepper plants from the tent and
put them in pots and brought them into my house sunroom for the
winter. Last year I did the same thing and I had fresh peppers all
winter/spring. Have to ask yourself a few questions of what you're
going to do with these peppers. These are very hot chili peppers.
Just a few plants worth of dried peppers will give you nearly a lifetime
supply of red pepper flakes good for everyday cooking. If you have
the time to home can things, relishes or chili sauces can use up these
mini fireplugs. Like I say they are loaded with seeds and deseeding
these peppers can take what seems an eternity depending on how
many you need to use to make a relish or a sauce. The use of fresh
hot chili peppers in cooking is sort of an Asian/Indian thing. Probably just
a couple plants is all that is necessary for the average Joe gardener.

My buddies dad has all sorts of weird ass pepper plants growin.....

They almost look like a big fuckin shrub....The one I like the best is called "chili petine" or is it "pepper petine" or somethin like that...Looks like a tobasco pepper but not as hot....Great to eat on the side with a sandwhich!

I think the snow we got last night just killed off my plants....We normally dont get snow down in these parts and I just keep my shit in pots outside all year long....In fact, the green bell pepper plant had 2 growin before the snow yesterday...I havent been outside to check it yet but Im sure they are all done....

Oh well...The store always sells new "starter plants" come spring....

Usually when it snows it's pretty close to freezing.
But depending on the duration of the cold snap and
how far below freezing it got will determine whether your
pepper plants are toast. Do you have a place to move the
containers into where it isn't freezing? (if only for a couple
days?) It usually takes a good hard freeze (one night) in the
20's to end pepper growing season. It's pretty easy to tell
it's toast by the way the leaves look. Snow in fucking Houston...
what's the world coming to. I'm getting my first chance this
weekend as a nasty winter outbreak is in the forecast. Yesterday
I dug up my Vietnamese Coriander plant and brought it inside.
Mulched heavily my artichokes and place a big grow cone over
the square. Put another cone over my parsley. The rest of the
garden is very hardy perenials.
