I have two that I can't remember which was worse.


The second was when there was a Red Devil in Calgary where Shanks used to be. They had the wall of fire there which was lame. Me and a buddy who has a much higher pain tolerance than me had this other hot sauce they kept behind the bar. You had to sign a waiver to taste it. My buddy grabs two tortilla chips and loads them up with sauce. I almost died. Physically burnt my mouth and I couldn't finish eating the rest of my meal because any temperature on the food just continued to burn my mouth. It sucked and the next day was even worse.

I entered a chilli contest once... I cut up a red/green habenera which physically burn the skin on my fingers and hands. I had to put ice on them for the rest of the night. I then simmered the meat for 30 minutese with a table spoon of cayenne, a table spoon of crushed chillis, half a bottle of Frank's for flavour, 6 diced jalepeno's and half a bottle of tabasco. Added this to the meet for 24 hours before the contest. There was one chili hotter than mine but I won first place because mine tasted better. It was delicious. I now always make the same recipe minus the habenero. You can't get through a bowl without sweating and nose runs but it tastes so damn good. Now I am off to go buy chilli recipe stuff.
