    There's a difference in the heat too. The Dorset and Bhut are smoother, with a longer rise time. The Trinidads have more bite, the heat comes in more aggressively.

    Research has shown that birds can't taste capsicum. Squirrels can so it becomes a squirrel repellant. Except there have been squirrels that are chilli heads and will seek out the chilli powder laced seeds.

    I know what you mean about the difference in heat and rise time Nick lol I had a Phall when a few of us went out for a curry a few years back and a couple of people just had a fraction of a tea spoon of the sauce from my Phall. First of all they said it was hot, a few seconds later it was getting hotter and hotter lol and one person was still complaing it was getting hotter 1/2 an hour later lol and that was a fraction of the meal I had eaten with no problems I realise that a Phall is a fraction od the heat of some of those chillies being mentioned on here so can only imagine what some of them could be like if eaten on their own !!!!!!!

    Chillies and curries are different things I know but you get some idea of how evil a chilli can be from eating hot curries lol

    From where i come from people are very kind and generous, they will fill a sack full of mangoes or what ever fruit is in season and give it to who ever wants it, but they guard their Naga plants viciously, i have seen full blown arguments over them, lol

    i grow them every year and keep seeds for the year ahead, hopefully if all goes well i will post some seeds to you next growing season

    the ones that become addicted to chillies are the ones to keep away from, they have a menacing face, blood shot eyes and kick over and smash flower pots looking for their fix, lol

    A chap I know runs runs this place

    https://www.devonchilliman.co.uk/pro...me-hot-sambal/

    I have some 1 gazzilion scovil chilly extract stuff somewhere but I’ve never been brave enough to try it. Apparently a small blob on a cocktail stick is enough so my brother “I can take a hot chilli bro” decided to dip his finger in, suck it, the run round the kitchen screaming and crying like baby. Was flipping brilliant lol.
    The Dorset Chilli festival is always good. I have a nice stock of chilli infused honey from there which is lovely on a bit of toast in the morning.
    Personally, can’t stand eating stuff that hurts, can’t see the point Chilli Cook-OffChilli Cook-OffChilli Cook-Off

    Chilli Cook-Off


    If you can read this whole story without laughing, then there’s no hope for you. I was crying by the end. This is an actual account as relayed to paramedics at a chilli cook-off in New Mexico https://erasmus-home.com/.

    Note: please take the time to read this slowly. If you pay attention to the first two judges, the reaction of the third judge is even better.

    For those of you who have lived in New Mexico, you know how true this is. They actually have a chilli cook-off about the time Halloween comes around. It takes up a major portion of a parking lot at the Santa Fe Plaza.

    Judge 3 was an inexperienced chilli taster named Frank, who was visiting from Springfield, IL.

    Frank: “Recently I was honoured to be selected as a judge at a chilli cook-off. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge’s table, asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (native New Mexicans) that the chilli wouldn’t be all that spicy; and besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted and became Judge #3.”

    Here are the scorecard notes from the event:


    Chilli #1 - Mike’s Maniac Monster Chilli

    Judge 1 - A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.

    Judge 2 - Nice, smooth tomato flavour. Very mild.

    Judge 3 (Frank) - Holy crap, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that’s the worst one. These New Mexicans are crazy.


    Chilli #2 - El Ranchos Afterburner Chilli

    Judge 1 - Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeño tang.

    Judge 2 - Exciting BBQ flavour, needs more peppers to be taken seriously.

    Judge 3 - Keep this out of the reach of children. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich manoeuvre. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face.


    Chilli #3 - Alfredo’s Famous Burn Down The Barn Chilli

    Judge 1 - Excellent firehouse chilli. Great kick.

    Judge 2 - A bit salty, good use of peppers.

    Judge 3 - Call the EPA. I’ve located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I’m getting shit-faced from all of the beer.


    Chilli #4 - Bubba’s Black Magic

    Judge 1 - Black bean chilli with almost no spice. Disappointing.

    Judge 2 - Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chilli.

    Judge 3 - I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the beer maid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. This 300 lb. woman is starting to look HOT ..... Just like this nuclear waste I’m eating! Is chilli an aphrodisiac?


    Chilli #5 - Lisa’s Legal Lip Remover

    Judge 1 - Meaty, strong chilli. Jalapeño peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive.

    Judge 2 - Chilli using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the jalapeño peppers make a strong statement.

    Judge 3 - My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted, and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chilli had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I’m burning my lips off? It really ticks me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw them .....


    Chilli #6 - Varga’s Very Vegetarian Variety

    Judge 1 - Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chilli. Good balance of spices and peppers.

    Judge 2 - The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, garlic. Superb.

    Judge 3 - My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. I crapped on myself when I farted, and I’m worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that Sally. Can’t feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my butt with a snow cone.


    Chilli #7 - Susan’s Screaming Sensation Chilli

    Judge 1 - A mediocre chilli with too much reliance on canned peppers.

    Judge 2 - Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chilli peppers at the last moment. **I should take note that I am worried about Judge 3, he appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.

    Judge 3 - You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn’t feel a thing. I’ve lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chilli, which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match my shirt. At least during the autopsy they’ll know what killed me. I’ve decided to stop breathing. It’s too painful. Screw it, I’m not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air I’ll just suck it in through the 4 inch hole in my stomach.


    Chilli #8 - Big Tom’s Toenail Curling Chilli

    Judge 1 - The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chilli. Not too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence.

    Judge 2 - This final entry is a good, balanced chilli. Neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge 3 farted, passed out, fell over and pulled the chilli pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he’s going to make it. Poor fella, wonder how he’d have reacted to really hot chilli?

    Judge 3 - No report.
    That’s brilliant Goes directly to awesome town!
