My grandpa would have called that gun powder, because the next time you sat on the toilet, your hiney would explode.

Good to know. Once you get into capsaicin extract I'm out. I remember my old bottle of Blair’s 3am reserve. Stuff would kick you in the mouth.

I’m still thinking on the rib rub. Thought about dehydrating some fruit and grinding into a powder as a sweetener. Mango, pineapple, or even honey. I’m not to big on sweet and spicy, but I think the habanero needs something to balance it.

Oh FYI - if you get another batch, DON'T boil them in the house I almost killed everybody in the house last time I did.

I took 5 lbs of habaneros cut in half, and boiled them in a big pot until they are soft (better to use a pressure cooker). Remove peppers & let it cool down. At the end you'll have a film on top of the water. Skim this film off and put in a little jar, discard the water. That film is pure concentrated capsaicin and is deadly. Just one drop smeared on a tamale is all you need!

I’ll bring this to the next GTG. See how big your britches really are
