Ghost Pepper Chili Powder Hot Spice Seasoning Wicked Tickle Devil Chili Powder

The Ghost Pepper (also known as Bhut Jolokia) has an average heat of 1 million Scoville Units, so yeah, this powder is MAD HOT! I won't try tasting it straight, so I can't tell if it's fruity vs earthy in flavor. I made a test batch of hot sauce from it with vinegar, garlic, salt, shallots, lime juice & a bit of Gula Malaka palm sugar, simmered it for 5 min. then let it cure for 30 days. And it's Dee-licious! It's become my new fave hot sauce to use on everything. The perfect combo of heat, acid, citrus & a hint of sweetness. Other than that, I add this Ghost Pepper powder to my DIY Gochujang paste to kick up the heat, since Korean red pepper flakes have a gorgeous color but not enough kick for me. And because of the intensity of the chilies, this 2 oz. container will probably last me a year.

I don't use this to cook - I'm sure it's way too hot for me. I use it to keep the chipmunks, squirrels, woodchucks, and other varmints away from my garden and container plants, and it works really really really well!!!I got the idea after trying the birdseed that's coated with "hot" pepper in my birdfeeders. The pepper birdseed is supposed to discourage the squirrels from raiding the birdfeeders, but the squirrels around here find it quite tasty - they love it! The cayenne or whatever they use on those seeds just isn't hot enough. But this ghost pepper is way hotter and it only takes one taste for the squirrels and chipmunks to learn NOT to try it again.Last year the woodchucks ate my beautiful hostas right down to the ground. This year I sprinkled the hosta bed thoroughly with this pepper powder and what a difference! The hostas are thriving! I also sprinkle it on the containers where I've planted various bulbs - no more digging, giving the plants a chance to grow.The only problem with using this as a pest-repellent is that rain or watering will wash it away so you have to reapply it. I'm hoping that if I keep using it often enough eventually the pests will have learned their lesson and will stay away, so I won't have to use quite as much.I don't want to use poison or kill or maim the critters - I just want to keep them away from my plants - and this does the trick perfectly: One taste of ghost pepper means a minute or two of discomfort for the interlopers but a summer of beautiful plants for me.

I am a Nashville native. We are famous for our Nashville Hot Chicken. Our spicy chicken is cayenne based. Cayenne is my favorite pepper for its flavor and color. However it is not providing me with endorphins from the spice that is use to, simply because cayenne is a mild pepper (hot to the average person). Some of our hottest chicken uses ghost pepper. I love our hottest offerings in Nashville, so I had to add the pepper to my kitchen.Upon getting it, I opened and smelled the powder. I LOVE the aromatics it gives off. I tested a little on my finger, and said to myself "I got this." I added 3/4 tsp to my taco beef-based meat. It came out amazing. Provided me with the endorphins – a high – I crave from spicy peppers. It also added a nice depth a flavor. Flavor is uniquely delicious. Nice red color with orange undertones. I then proceeded to cook traditional Nashville hot chicken, and added this powder (see picture). It came out amazing, and tasted just like Hattie B's "Shut the Cluck Up."My tolerance is super high, so this is like cayenne to me. For the average person this will be torture. You will probably be reaching for milk or other forms of dairy. I would only use this if you're a chili head, meaning you eat extremely spicy foods often. Because this was such an amazing experience, I will be buying this brand's scorpion and reaper powder when my tolerance goes up.

The hottest finely ground hot pepper around. I love how it delivers immense heat while not overwhelming the flavor of the food. Best thing about it is a little goes a very long way.It’s exceptionally hot upon first unsealing. The dust floating through the air might drift over to your arm and fool you into thinking you have a sunburn. I’ve made the mistake several times of sprinkling near an iPad or phone only to much later on follow up by touching my eye after using said device. This is a very unwelcome experience.After a couple months it’s heat is cut in half. This is actually a good thing because it becomes much easier to measure.Cayenne pepper will lose almost all effect after you’ve used this regularly. Great stuff. If you like to kick it up a notch, every meal, every day, you probably want this in your cupboard. I do and I get about 6 months out of a 2oz container. Again, a little goes a long way.

I was in a cafe and had ghost pepper mocha that was fabulous. I bought this to make at home but wow is this stuff strong. Quite literally, i add 5 grains of pepper to a mocha and it is hot! just add a grain or two to anything, and you get the interesting flavor that is amazing, without being burned to death. This is unbelievably hot.

Very HOT. My husband loves it but cautions to use only a small amount.

Some Chili powders I've seen claim to be "Ghost Pepper" but the contents are Cayenne pepper mixed with other spices or other pepper blends, but often contain no Ghost pepper powder.After growing my own Ghost peppers, drying and grinding them, I can confirm that the contents of this IS absolutely Ghost pepper. It tastes exactly like the ones I grew and ground... If you like "hot", this is "Hot" without being overkill (like Reaper Pepper powder, which is good for pretty much nothing food related)..

My wife likes everything incredibly spicy and like this the best out of all the spicy powders we’ve tried. She says it’s very spicy and has a great flavor. She used it on everything.
