This was a great weekend. It was my Birthday/Anniversary and we had a good time at the Marin farmers market. We got to see a couple of good friends. Chris from ‘Zuckerman’ farms (The best Asparagus in the country) and Larry from ‘Peppahead’. Larry had some Bhut Jolokia powder. This pepper powder has a warning label to keep away from children. It should actually say keep away from the pepper novice. This is the real deal. This powder burns so good. Chris worked up a sweat with just a little taste. We had fun giving people little samples. You would never guess the power of a little ground up chile until you saw the looks and reactions on people’s faces.
Aroma and Texture
Ground up chile powder with a fragrant lovely Chile smell. Be careful sniffing this powder because it will not be forgiving if you get some in your nose.
Ingredients
Bhut Jolokia is all she wrote.
Label
What you see is what you get!
Taste
This is the fun part. You will get a power hit of heat just looking at this powder. Once you take the plunge you will be rewarded with a fiery heat rush. Once the initial rush has subsided I tasted fruit sort of like a habanero. This was a very unique taste. Wow this stuff is everything as advertised. This will be great on some ribs and some bacon wrapped Asparagus. You do need to be cautious with this powder. I just sprinkled our meal lightly with a small dusting of powder. Oh man did this burn so good. The Asparagus with home made bacon rocked. The ribs were so devilishly good that I hugged myself.
Overall
If you are a Chilehead you cannot pass up this powder. This is the pinnacle of heat and flavor. Just be careful!!!!

What a sweet farmers market, good powder & fresh asparagus, even though I live in WI. I’ll let the Packer hoody go, but ship me 20 lbs of that stuff to pickle.
you Chilebrown are living the high life.
