Didn't want to intrude any further in his thread, so here we are!
Made a 1kg batch and split it in half. I used raw jalapenos in one half and candied in the other.
The 1st link (7 o'clock position) in the candied jals half (on the right) is the meat left in the tube after stuffing the raw jals half.
Did a test fry of the candied (what was left in the tube) and it's REALLY good even before smoking. I'm thinking, though, that I probably would add a bit more of the candied jals...won't know for sure until after they're smoked.
I didn't bother with a test fry of the raw...when I chewed a couple of pieces of the raw pepper to see how hot they were, NO heat...at all! APPARENTLY, the ones I bought was those "notapenos"...I grew a couple of plants year before last and they taste basically like a bell pepper.
Oh well...they should still be good even without the heat.
Will update after smoking tomorrow.
