Cooking with @fat-elvis - Orange is the New Red

Today I decided to make a vinegar based pepper sauce from this year's Hybrid Thai Chiles. These babies are HOT.

So here's what you need if you want to make a delicious "Tabasco style" vinegar based hot sauce. Just an FYI, Tabasco ferments their peppers for up to 2 years for their sauce, I decided not to ferment this batch, but my next likely I will.

So I chopped up the peppers and 1 clove of garlic and put them in a pot and covered them in water.

After about 20 minutes of throwing capsaicin rich steam into the air, always adding small amounts of water, I added 3/4 of a cup of vinegar and tossed it all in the blender.

Then into the strainer to catch the pulp.

I stirred it around to get the liquids out and put the pulp in a little jar. I'll probably dehydrate it to make pepper flakes.

Then put the sauce in these cool little bottles I bought.

I made a batch of bread and butter pickles as well. I'll post about it later...

Looks awesome brother. Love me some hot sauce.

Thanks man. This stuff is insane hot. These peppers are hotter than habanero. Very hot sauce. I was going to order some Carolina Reapers, from PuckerButt, but after trying this stuff, I think I don't need to try the Reapers.
