Peppers

What do I do with roughly 60 Carolina Reapers?


I accidentally grew Carolina Reapers this year (long story) and my plant has been nothing short of prolific. I have roughly 60 peppers, after having already given away 30, and I have more on the way. The pile grows daily. I used one in a pint of tomatillo salsa and my husband and I are dying. It only takes 3 for a batch of hot sauce. I was thinking maybe drying and powdering? Does anyone have suggestions? Please help me. I already have too many cayannes and some ghost peppers from last year I dried and still haven’t used.

    Dehydrate some. Make some into hot sauce. Some into salsa. Give a few to people you hate claiming it’s a new sweet pepper variety. Pickle some.

  2. I’d dry 1/2 for crushed pepper flakes. Then make sauce with the rest

    Trade them to a restaurant in exchange for free food.

    Dehydrate them and trade/sell the seeds

    Dehydrate them. Smoke them. Grind/pulverize/ blend them with kosher salt to create an amazing pepper salt. You’ll have WAY more than you need. I bought a bunch of salt shakers at a restaurant supply and gave away shakers full of pepper salt for the Holidays.

    OK so, what you DON’T do is touch your eyes…

    Soak some in some of your personal lubricant and share with a lover. Or swap out with someone else’s lube.

    The winter holidays aren’t too far away. Maybe dry and powder them to give to people as gifts? Or make some insanely spicy brownies.

  19. Soak in freezer vodka for a week, broil until lightly charred blend with honey mustard

    We used our dried ones in our pickles this year and they were fantastic. Also, we use about 20-30 in one batch of spicy pepper jelly, it’s pretty spicy but enjoyable.

    Make CR Mac n cheese
    Purée it and freeze it for different sauces or dehydrate and ground into your own CR seasoning

    I’ll mail you a $5 bill if you send me one pepper back. I will give it to my friend saying it’s a sweet pepper
