That looks mighty tasty! Nice Job!

Nice, I’m hungry for some collard greens! Splash of vinegar and hot sauce on mine please

 

[xray]

Looks great!!!!

Yeah, I wanted to make some just to use my hot pepper vinegar on it.

 

[smokerjim]

that looks delicous, pass the hot sauce!

Me likes the sound of hot pepper vinegar....do tell.

If you google hot pepper vinegar or peppa sauce, you will find a lot of ideas.

Mine were 50:50 white and apple cider vinegars. Add peppers to clean glass bottle. Boil vinegar and add to jars. You could top the bottles off with more heated vinegar as you use it up.

I used cayennes and tabascos. A lot of my tabascos didn’t ripen in time so they found their way into the bottle.

Great meal. Good for the soul!

Great looking stuff Lance!! Looky at what Joe got me doing: pepper vinegar and my idea: the garlic infused olive oil

That's 16 cayenne peppers in 12 ounces of vinegar and about 30 full cloves of garlic in the EVOO. Side note however: you must heat the oil and garlic to 250 degrees for 3 minutes before bottling to ensure no growth of botulism. Outside of that, it's easy and the flavor is fantastic!! I'm doing gift bottles for some friends.

Let us know how that vinegar comes out. I had a feeling you were going with the reapers after you got that nice harvest.

The texas pete pepper sauce is what got me fooling around with this. I started looking up ideas for green tabascos and the product came up.

I fully envisioned collard greens and ham and bean soup when making this (love adding some into a bowl of that)

I got the bottles from Amazon. They included the corks and the decorative shrink wrap caps. IMHO, it makes a nice presentation. All you need to shrink the wraps is a hair dryer. Pretty easy to make some nice looking gifts.

Lance...Texas Pete hot sauce is readily available here (duh!!). Send me a PM with your address and I'll send you a couple bottles.

Off to the post office again,

You could always dilute it with more vinegar if you find it to be too hot. But I’m thinking your heat tolerance is off the charts (based on reading your jerky posts)

I’m curious to your thoughts on the reaper vinegar. I want to try some super hots in it.

Man yall are killing me with this post. First Lance goes and posts that fine southern cuisine and then yall got me going on hot pepper vinegar and garlic infused olive oil. Ugh I have a huge list already to do now I gotta add vinegar and olive oil! One of these days ill get around to doing half of it.

BTW Lance I made chili yesterday with one Carolina reaper...out of this world!

Aw why can’t you have both? Cod and hush puppies with a side of ham, bean ans potatoes....Think of it like a long johns platter minus the coleslaw.

 

[SmokinAl]

I'm not real big on collard greens, but maybe I just haven't had the right recipe!
Yours sure look good!!

Now i got a taste for Greens! Looks great!

Just curious...It was my understanding that Cooking on a Kerosene Heater was Dangerous because of the possibility of Boil Over and Grease Fires. Has this changed in the last 20 years since I had a Kerosene Heater?...JJ

How was the heat on that?

I used some of my tabasco vinegar on some fried taters the other day. I thought it was very good. I actually transferred the vinegar into a more shaker-friendly bottle and then refilled the bottle containing most of the peppers with more 50:50 ACV and white.

Hopefully that gives me a nice flavor too...but I’m also expecting it to be diluted.

Yeah definitely, thanks!

My two bottles shown earlier in the post were fresh peppers.

Haven’t tried dried or superhots, yet.

When you smell the Tabasco vinegar, you definitely notice the pepper in there. It has a small kick maybe 3/10 on my scale...7/10 on my wifes.

PM incoming.
