You've got about a quart of sauce there, a 1/16 to an 1/8 teaspoon would probably turn it up about where you want it and leave a distinctively unique flavor.




That's hardcore. CC or NC? I hear Nicaraguan is hotter.

Damn auto-correct. I meant tabasco.

So Adam sent me some dried ground ghost pepper. Put a tiny (and I do mean tiny) bit on my tongue to get a sense of the flavor and strength.
Holy $hit, effing hot!!!

I made 2 quarts of sauce today. One as indicated above.
The second quart, I added ~1/16th of a tsp. (I wanted to be careful) The heat is a bit less than I wanted but the flavor came thru just fine. So I resisted the urge to add a bit more.

Thanks Adam. The chicken tonight will be delicious.
