It’s official, we have created the Hot Sauce Blog Forum in order to provide a place for the increased conversations here on the HSB.
The Boiler Room is now open for business. However, since the forum is brand new, please be sure to let us know what categories/features you would like to see there and we’ll make it happen. The goal of the Boiler Room is to bring ideas/conversations to the surface since they commonly get buried here in the comment threads.
However, please continue to post away with comments – just make sure to check out the Hot Sauce Blog Forum as well!

Wow, something new to “play with”… 🙄
Thanks Nick!
Have to go by and check it out- I certainly hope it has a ‘history’ so you can see what it is you’ve missed! Blog posting is going to take a serious hit I think.
Cool. Just registered!
Is there a link for this off the main blog – or am I just missing it?
NO more pestering Nick for email addresses. YOu can setup your account on the Forum so people can email you directly – very nice.

On the right, under the spicy site links.
Don’t worry about Huv, he would’ve found if he’d just stop staring at the horseradish on the mantle that he is supposed to EAT!!!
[Comment ID #40261 Quote]
Thanks Nick. I was looking at the top of the page (like the way the Forum has a link back to the blog).
[Comment ID #40262 Quote]
LOL – I think I am going to break down and try it. THe temptation is killing me!
[Comment ID #40262 Quote]
[Comment ID #40264 Quote]
dont worry huvason, I didnt open mine yet either.
I will Creator, I really will 🙄
Ugh, you guys are killin’ me.
Guess I should go first since #6 is before #8, right huvason?
Hey Creator… I’m still waiting for my Habby-Horse. Unlike huv and chris, I will use the horseradish 🙂
[Comment ID #40293 Quote]
Hi Dan, well, we got rid of the entire batch in less than a day. Funny part is, NO ONE IS EATING IT! Like I said before, the wife told me not to number them…And I HATE it when she’s right.
Well, the good news is, I’ll probably be making up another batch of jars soon (as soon as I find time) and I’ll throw them into orders again.
Excellent, Thanks Creator!
So… is this stuff so heinous that everyone is afraid to eat it?
[Comment ID #40296 Quote]
I’m not opening yet cuz it looks so good in the collection. I really want to try so I may actually open it this weekend.
huv, you have to try it. I didn’t get a jar so you must be my proxy taste tester.
[Comment ID #40297 Quote]
I second that!
Looks good the way it is, but if I just twist open the jar, I’d have to eat it.
[Comment ID #40296 Quote]
Dan, the stuff is actually quite tasty. It’s not a ‘blow your face off’ heat, which to me serves no purpose (well maybe sometimes). It was meant to highlight the tastes of each. First the horseradish quick nasal scorch, and then the lovely long-lasting steady burn of the habanero. I could easily throw a lot more habanero into it, but it would overwhelm the hand-grated horseradish taste.
[Comment ID #40303 Quote]
Sounds intriguing… looking forward to the next batch. I’m a horseradish junky. I eat it on most everything. Some of my favorite horseradish is this stuff I get in Lancaster PA from the Amish. It’s got qute a bite and the freshest taste I have ever had in a horseradish.
[Comment ID #40307 Quote]
I’ll trade the Habby Horse for some labels 😉
Wow this is good stuff. The forum that is.
Though i do wanna try same Habby
[Comment ID #40307 Quote]
Now I have to open it.
Where in Lancaster do you get it from Dan, Im only about 25 miles from there 🙂
[Comment ID #40316 Quote]
I usually get it from The Farmers Market but my parents were out that way last year in Intercourse and found the Famish farmer that produces it and bought it directly from him. I’ll have to go home and look at the jar to see what the name on it is. The one they got directly from the farmer had no label on it so I’ll have to see if my parents still have a jar from the Farmers Market.
[Comment ID #40319 Quote]
Cool!
[Comment ID #40319 Quote]
Uhh whut? Something about intercourse?!?
[Comment ID #40328 Quote]
Yes, Intercourse PA… it’s right down the road from Blue Balls, PA.
Really!
[Comment ID #40328 Quote]
[Comment ID #40329 Quote]
He is right pmac, look it up online. (except its BAll, drop the “s”)
There are some other names of Pa towns that also come up during these converstions, but I wont mention em.
Let us not forget the beautiful city of Bird in Hand. That is also in that same neck of the woods. Asa you can tell Chris, I have spent quite a bit of time out east. We have some very close relatives in Lancaster and I swear my Mother thinks she was a little Amish girl in another life 🙂 She loves it out there and travels there 3-4 times a year. I love it when she brings me back some Sturgis Pretzels and Wilbur Bud Chocolates from Litiz.
One of the best beers I had from out there was Stoudt’s American Ale from Adamstown, PA. Not to mention the Yuengling Brewery right down the street from the mecca of outdoor stuff, Cabelas, in Pottsville.
Lancaster though, takes a little getting used. There’s the running joke, how can you tell an Amish girl from a Mennenite girl? The Mennenite goes to school on rollerblades.
[Comment ID #40339 Quote]
So Creator, sounds like you’ve been to my neck of the woods a few times, Adamstown is right down the road.
Ahhh, the Yuengling Brewery, I have never been there but it isnt that far. My uncle just went 2 weeks ago and said you can tour the caves this year.
“In honor of our 175th Anniversary, the cave area is now opened during tours.”
[Comment ID #40337 Quote]
Wilbur buds, now your talking. Good old Lititz Pa.
They kick Hershey’s ass (also somewhat local) and you dont have to unwrap each one 🙂
I’ll look you up if I’m ever out that way, Chris. We can tip back a few and have some Defcon wings!!
So is this new forum susposed to take away from posting here? I guess it has been too slow lately and nick is trying new stuff.
[Comment ID #40346 Quote]
Nah, just another place to vent, I mean express 🙄
[Comment ID #40345 Quote]
Sounds good. Im actually next to Reading, and all these places are so close. Dont tell huvason though cause he was just in Kutztown (only 16 miles) and I never managed to “meet up” with him. 🙁 Creator really isnt that far either, N Jersey is about an hour and a half, to an hour and 45 minutes with no traffic.
yeah but I think the Creator now has a tricked out Mustang and could make it by you in less than an hour. I heard he powers his Mustang on Defcon Zero because he is concerned with the ecology…
[Comment ID #40346 Quote]
I don’t think it will take away from the original HSB. Somewhere else to quickly sneek a peek and leave a comment on the latest hot sauce happenings!
Should work out well. Now we can edit out spelling mistakes 🙂 btw I registered under picanteput in case anyone cared. Just seems like a cooler internet name really 😀
[Comment ID #40350 Quote]
So thats what he was working on in his shed 😉
Creator, its in the fridge now, step 1 complete, step 2 to come!
the answer is no I did not receive a PM after I confirmed registration….I would have answered but I am not allowed to post …silly Nick 😛
[Comment ID #40374 Quote]
You need to confirm registration (check your email)
it’s not there Nick 😛 I keep checking….it’s all good, I know it will make it eventually right now is peak time for the internet here.
Hello everyone, hey Nick I didn’t recieve a cofirmation either. Maybe it will come later.
[Comment ID #40377 Quote]
[Comment ID #40376 Quote]
Both of you I’ve manually approved, I’ll look into the email issue, was working earlier today – might just be lagging behind
Thanks Nick.
Thanks Nick 😀
Anyone else read the rules about the Forum? ?You can’t post a link to any site (including your own) if items and/ or services that are sold by Sweat `n Spice are sold there as well…It will be interesting to see how many links are posted (including the poster’s name as a Hyperlink) for certain manufacturers. I know of one that will be allowed 😉
Hey brother- what’s up!!!
I’am home know I can dry out.Way too much drinke and way too much food. Cajohn Jim was not working the other night when I call.
Hey ryan hows that Belt buckle look. Peace Brother
[Comment ID #40384 Quote]
No, not yet. I’ll take a peak later. I honestly dont usually read them.
Was there a post deleted? Or am I crazy! I thought I saw a post – went to read it and its gone. THought it was by you Ryan.
Oh well – only a half a bottle of wine and i’m already seeing stuff!
[Comment ID #40388 Quote]
The belt buckle ROCKS!!! Thans man! I hope you got the wife’s e-mail with a thank you from me in it. That really wasn’t necessary, but grately appreciated. I’ll try to figure out a way to repay you someday. If you ever need something that I can give you, let me know. BTW, I found out the other day that Jumgle Jim’s is a customer of the company I work for. Small world 😛
[Comment ID #40389 Quote]
Wasn’t me, I haven’t posted anything there yet, but it would be cool if it was me! 😈
I see the good people behind the HSB are having a great time editing my comments. Nick, Chris…enjoy 😉
[Comment ID #40389 Quote]
Maybe huvason, cause certain “curse” words are flagged and the comment is sent directly to the “to be moderated” section.
[Comment ID #40397 Quote]
Ahhhhh – didn’t get to read it! At least i’m not crazy!
Question:
[Comment ID #40394 Quote]
Answer:
[Comment ID #40397 Quote]
Mrs.Ryan
you need to have a talk with your other half!!!!! There is no excuse for what he just emailed me!!!!
NOT COOL!!
[Comment ID #40407 Quote]
Hey eman, nice comeback! 🙂
[Comment ID #40407 Quote]
[Comment ID #40408 Quote]
LOOK IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY HUSBAND THAT IS BETWEEN YOU AND HIM LEAVE ME THE HELL OUT OF IT. HANDLE IT LIKE ADULTS AND TALK IT OUT DON’T RUN TO THE WIFE, I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS. AS FOR THE RELIGION THING, I AM OFFENDED GREATLY HAVE A NICE NIGHT.
[Comment ID #40410 Quote]
All caps, must be a fun night in that house tonight 🙁
Night all, pleasant dreams to all!!!
[Comment ID #40408 Quote]
I meant his email response, not getting you involved mrs ryan
you crack me up, ypu make way to many assumptions. the all caps was because of the stupid BS going on, and why drag me into it. Ryan and I get along just fine, this is between you and him, i don’t appreciate being dragged into it. thank you for NEVER doing it again 😀
[Comment ID #40413 Quote]
email mrs ryan, emans email reply…sorry but I left you out of it 🙄
[Comment ID #40410 Quote]
Why is she offended by me being religious? All this because i would not put 666 on the back of a shirt? 🙄
hey all Jesus Saves!
god bless
kiss your kids, hug a loved one and remember, it all works out in the end
[Comment ID #40413 Quote]
sorry, will leave you out of it. Your right, i don’t know how things are there.
What has been said, was said and whats done is done.
All I can say is if this were a sports event, a player would have been ejected tonight!
[Comment ID #40415 Quote]
Takes all kinds. Its not that you’re a religious person that bugs either of us, we are tolerant of other people, its when people are not tolerant of us. Don’t get me wrong, we don’t worship “satan”, I for one don’t worship anyone or anything. 666 is funny and that’s why I chose that originally. Its a number, but people are all supersticious about it…kinda like there is no floor in a building numbered 13 because “its spooky and bad luck”. We all live in a world where people pride themselves on their tolerance of other people despite race, color, creed or religion, but we all know that we are all in one way or another prejudiced about something and afraid of what people will think of us if we do, say, or wear certain things. Deny it all you want, but what has transpired here tonight is proof of it.
[Comment ID #40415 Quote]
God is great!
eman, I am not offended by you being religious, or believing in god, or whatever your beliefs are, in my religion 666 is just a number and a pentagram is worn for luck, I do not believe in one god i believe in many, what offends me is I have to keep my mouth shut so I do not offend anyone with my beliefs. or your god forbid hate me because they believe falsely i am a satanist because i am pagan but i do not in anyway nor will i ever hold it against someone because they believe in god. go to church, and believe in heaven or hell. in any event this is not the place for this discussion and I apologize if I came across as being offended by your religion, as to the events with my husband, I had no idea what was going on until the middle of it all, and in the future please do not drag me into it, if i have something to say to him i will i do not hold my tongue when i think he is wrong, or should stop doing whatever he is doing. have a nice night.

[Comment ID #40424 Quote]
Not really needed 🙂 but certainally accepted!
just wanted to clear that up 😉
Hello everyone.
Please remember that talking religion and/or politics can ruin even the strongest of friendships.
Just say “no” to the number noone is going to cry or lose any sleep!
[Comment ID #40345 Quote]
My treat!
[Comment ID #40468 Quote]
Reminds me of one of the great expressions I know,
You fly I buy!
[Comment ID #40342 Quote]
Yeah, we have a Civil War shoot in Lancaster every year or so, and I do so love Cabela’s. The Yuengling caves sound intriguing.
[Comment ID #40350 Quote]
Yes, the little blood red Mustang, my conjoined twin. Give it about another month and a half, and the work shall be completed. Ahhh, a Cabela’s road trip at Warp 9. What a rush!
As for being ZERO powered, I think it’s more the driver, the tank only has 114 octane.
[Comment ID #40468 Quote]
I shall take you up on this if and when I get out that way.
[Comment ID #40475 Quote]
Me too!
Creator, the habby has been in the fridge since last night, its going to be open soon 🙂
[Comment ID #40481 Quote]
Just open it and put it on your morning eggs and potatoes! You’re killin’ me over here! 🙂
Chris, when you do use it, don’t tell Dan, I can feel his blood pressure rising all the way over here in Jersey. 🙂
[Comment ID #40484 Quote]
Stay out of this, Creator 🙂
BWAAAHAAAHAAA!!!
[Comment ID #40488 Quote]
yeah, yeah, yeah… you just keep laughin’. May you touch yourself in the wrong spot after chopping habs with no gloves.
Been there, done that. Many laughs had by The Createss. 🙂
I’ve done that with serranos and jalapenos… I cannot imagine having the burn from a hab.
[Comment ID #40491 Quote]
Not just A hab, the concentrate of MANY of them.
I think I posted some recent events in the creation of the Batch #3 somewhere here. I’m beginning to take this Batch personally. I got an extract facial (thank God for goggles) from one of the distillation processes, including the inside of my nose, and more recently a 2nd degree cryoburn from the liquid CO2 we use as a shock catalyst on my wrist (it already turned black, so the new skin under it is coming along fine as per the St. Barnabas Burn Center). I guess it really is a true love of making this stuff, or maybe I really am into self-mutilation. I prefer the former of the two.
“cryoburn from the liquid CO2..as a shock caralyst”
wow. I’d love to hear the whole process some time. Perhaps all but one step…
Unless you can do a 4X, you’ll have to count me out. I would love to have one to wear to Zest Fest this fall. I would take number 34 after my all time football hero Walter Payton. Please let me know if I can be part of this or not.
[Comment ID #41389 Quote]
Cheffy you rock- Walter Payton was incredible! He’s the reason I am still a Bears fan to this day- “Da Bears!”
