They are 1 of my required Chilli Cheese Dog toppings.
Sounds like it’s going to be perfect on a charcuterie board. I know where I’m having them.😊
I haven't found anything yet good out of the jar 😮😮😊
My wife makes cowboy candy. We put that "sh.t" on everything….😂 . Great on hotdogs or sausages and add pickled garlic on it as well
I went to our local farmers market today. One of the booths, which sells awesome spices and other condiments, had a sample plate of Cowboy Candy. Hmm, sounds interesting. Holy crap! I was not expecting a fire cracker to go off on my tongue! (I have “baby mouth”.)
Now I know why. Jalapeños??
Unfortunately, I have always hated vinegar. Would it be possible to use a different acid like lime juice or lemon juice?
They’re great on top of vanilla bean ice cream 😊
Can't wait to give this a try. Would be great in a drink.
For those that can't have sugar but who would like to try making this, do you think this would work with non sugar based sweeteners such as stevia or xylitol?
Great on a hot dog.
IN cornbread more than ON it, I should think?
Love it! I just pickled some and now will make these!!😂
Cowboy candy is to live for!! I make some into a relish and put it on burgers, in potato/and Mac salad, deviled eggs pretty much goes on everything, pizza too!
Jalapeños have been feminized. They're not as hot as they used to be. Today's seranos is the way to go
I like to put cowboy candy on top of a triscut and cream cheese. Also, I will will put 2 or 3 jalapeños into my mini food chopper and blend some cowboy candy into it. Fantastic on a brat or a hot dog.
Cook the left over sauce a little more to make it a little thicker and use it to glaze smoked ribs! It's fantastic 😍
I love these, I use them in my salmon, and I love them on peanut butter and crackers.
Oh, there also great in baked beans.
What a great presentation!
Had a friend working at a huge hotel and he was cutting habaneros all day ( for some huge party) then he went to the bathroom 🚽 and didn't wash his hands 🙌🏻 before ( you can imagine )
Great with anything ! There’s a citrus ranch up the street from me that candies their own .
Interestingly enough they marinate them with sweet citrus like tangerine or blood orange pulp and then put them in mason jars to rest for a while .
Cuts down on the amount of sugar needed and gives them a taste like no other . Go to for chili cheese dog toppings or nachos .
For burritos or tortas I generally use a whole roasted jalapeño on the side , not the midget ones either .
