MORE HOT SAUCE

[gary s]

I love hot sauce, and so does my neighbor. I got most of my Jalapeno's from him, as well as some Tabasco. He also grew some Ghost Peppers.
He asked me to show him how I make my Hot Sauce, but wanted to use his Ghost Peppers, !!! Sure why not

I told him to get his fish cooker set up in the edge of his garage and I'd be right over.

I had him put 6 cups of Vinegar about 3 Tablespoons of minced Garlic and about a Tablespoon of salt then he had about 30
Ghost Peppers everything in the pot.

Onto the Fish Cooker, bring up to a boil and let simmer for about 15 to 20 min.
Poured it into the blender (Ninja) and Blend, Blend, Blend
Strained through a regular wire strainer then back in the pot.
Let it simmer for about another 15 to 20 min.
We let it cool down and poured it up.

I was wondering the whole time if it was just going to be to darn hot.
As it cooled down I tasted it, I was surprised, Very Hot, but not unpleasant, and had a good flavor.
You could taste the Garlic and the Peppers then a slow burn, but not unpleasant.
Good Hot Sauce, Just Don't need as much

Here are a couple of Pics we took



Ghost Peppers floating around in the Vinegar and Garlic

Look what a beautiful Color

My Bottle, Neighbor wound up with one this size and a large bottle

If Tabasco is too Hot for you, You probably wouldn't like this stuff. I has a great flavor but it's Hot

I put sauce on just about everything. I love it. Some of them out there are way too much heat, so much that they really have no flavor. One that has the heat but you can still taste are the ones that I like. Congrats on success...

Looks Great, Gary!!
It's a good idea to make that in the garage, near the door.
That way if you spill some it won't eat any flooring or Black Top away, and you're close to a fresh supply of Oxygen, while stirring.

Looks great Gary!
My kind of hell fire.

Did you test pH?
What was your highest temp and held for how long?
No Bath or Pressure method?
Just planning on refrigeration and using it fairly quickly I guess.

This is awesome. Going to have to try it! How long do you think it'll keep in the fridge?

Looks good. I'm waiting to do my first batch of Cayenne pepper sauce. The recipe you have here sounds right for what I have in mind. Except for the peppers of course.

DIRECTIONS
USING FRESH CAYENNE PEPPERS.

There are two different ways to prepare this sauce. You can use fresh cayenne peppers, or you can use cayenne peppers from your garden that you have canned.

If you're using fresh cayenne peppers, simply remove the ends and measure all of the ingredients into a small saucepan.

Heat over medium heat until boiling.

Reduce the heat slightly, but so the mixture continues to boil.

Simmer about 15 to 20 minutes.

Remove the mixture from heat, carefully pour it into a blender & puree until thick and smooth.

Transfer the mixture back into the saucepan and simmer another 15 minutes.

Let Cool and pour into bottles.

NOTE: I usually Quadruple this recipe or just adjust the ingredients

for the amount of peppers you have A few more or less doesn't matter.

Gary,
Good morning. A question about the Cayenne sauce recipe. You don't strain it like the ghost pepper one?

 

[smokerjim]

looks like some good stuff, I do like frank's hot sauce but that's about as hot as I can go.
