I have a friend who licked a dog turd for an Andre Ware rookie card. I'm not sure if the dog ate something spicy before it took a dump.

 

The best of that story isn't what he was willing to do, but that his judgement was so bad he did it for an Andre Ware card. :lol:

I had the 'suicidal' wings once at the Pine Lodge - a little place on Millersport and North French. Washed them down with extra-hot Bloody Marys, too. It was an especially stupid thing to do, but I did a lot of stupid things back then.

not wings and not personally, but last year i brought in some scorpion and ghost peppers to work, one of my co-workers took a couple slivers of them, he wound up curled up in the fetal position on the bathroom floor for about an hour...co-workers had to go get milk and force him to drink it...he claims to love hot things too, must have been a one time bad reaction. it was weird

I think we all know that guy. I had some dude tell me about how he eats the hottest stuff available and laughed at me when I said xyz sauce was hot. I let him sample some insanity sauce. He cried.

 

I saw something about the science of it but apparently your body associates the hot sensation with a very high vitamin C content food and instinctively craves it.

 

i used to not get super hot food but it grew on me and now I gotta have it frequently. Wings, Vindaloo, Kung Pao, wasabi...I could eat hot twice a day for sure.

Capsaicin releases endorphins. Eating spicy food gives you a rush and afterward you crave that sensation again.

I get that for sure. Very hot food is addictive to me. Thai tends to be my most favored but it's hard to beat a good lamb vindaloo. Too bad St Augustine doesn't have a decent Thai or Indian restaurant. (Well we have one restaurant that has an Indian buffet, but that doesn't appeal to me as the heat level has to be quite mild for a buffet,) Fortunately we have a very good Asian market, so I've been making some Thai dishes, but have yet to seriously experiment with Indian cooking.

 

I think all hot peppers have great flavor. That is why I eat them like carrot sticks. Best thing for a hangover.

 

I've never tried a raw Naga Jolokia (ghost chili), but sometimes my favorite Thai place in Jacksonville has them and slips a little in my order. (They actually gave me a plant once, but it got aphids while on my patio.) I'm told they are so overpoweringly hot, they have little detectable flavor. But some people say the same things about habaneros and they have great flavor.

 

I really dig the small thai chilis to nibble on. But I will say I'm not that keen on peppers labeled "chipotle" (which I think are really morita peppers) or jalapenos.

Chipotles are dried and smoked jalapenos. Like ancho chilies are dried and smoked poblano peppers. Chipotles in adobo sauce are amazing for making quick sauces and salsas. Toss them in a pot of chili.

That is if you can pronounce them.

That explains why I'm not a big fan, as I find jalapenos kind of lame--pablanos too. Yes, they are OK in chili. I actually like chili (if very hot) but I detest beans and almost all chili sold at restaurants in the USA includes beans.

In my mind if it ain't got beans it ain't chili. As a matter of fact the Mexicans out here call the dish Chili Beans

That's kinda like saying you can't enjoy a nice cold Corona on a hot day cause you like hoppy IPAs.

 

I use them in all kind of sauces, even use them on smoked and grilled wings....as well as in the beans I make....and I am telling you you ain't had beans till ya had my beans.

 

That being said, I am not a heat miser kind of guy... I usually order hot for my wings and am more than happy with the level of heat . The chipotle as much about the smoke as the heat

Actually, it has to be very hot, and I have to be very thirsty for me to "enjoy" a Corona. One of my least favorite beers.

 

But regarding the chili talk, I was specifically talking about eating the chili raw (the flavor of the chili by itself), not sure that was made clear, though.

Jesus, man. You should've spoken up @ the tailgates. I can make wings that would leave your eyeballs hanging out.

BTW, thanks for the delicious spuds!

Sounds like your friend might have a future in Politics..

One word of advice: if you order the BLAZIN wings at BWW, make sure you,wash your hands BEFORE you take a leak. Happened to my buddy one time when we went, needless to say, we were rolling n the floor with laughter.

 

Also, Gungy, I know about that Satan's Blood stuff, they sell it at specialty shops. I think it actually says on the label that it is a novelty only and not for consumption...

Or touch your eye. I've learned both the hard way.

That's nothing. I was slicing serranos once and had a seed pop off the cutting board and land in my eye. Yikes!!

I recently had the full suicide wing experience when a particularly chewy bite off a wing flung a drop of ghost sauce (at least it was labeled ghost chili, not sure if there were any ghost peppers in the sauce) into my eye. I was blind for about 5 minutes.

I also think that it has to do with Canada sucking at producing any good caliber of wings.

 

I'm lucky if I can get wings that arent breaded here and lucky if I can find a souce hotter than "Hot"

You have to make your own wings. Its not that hard. Get a turkey fryer and then a smaller pot with a basket. I prefer canola oil to fry them with. Get franks hot sauce and modify to suit your to your taste.
