Carolina Reaper Powder

I have purchased this pepper several times, and it's consistent with every purchase. It is HOT but with a ton of flavor. A little goes a long way; it will last you a long time. I use it on everything, pasta, eggs, salads, potatoes, veggies, etc....

I am a regular purchaser. I love the smokey flavor of the Carolina Reaper. It beats the other hot peppers hands down. I mix crushed hot Thai red pepper to Reaper powder 10:1 and keep a spice chili shaker bottle in my car and on the kitchen table. The mix is great on anything that needs a little more heat. My wife isn't as good with hot as she was when we were younger. I take the bottle in the car with me to restaurants where I can never get them to understand that being from southern New Mexico when I say Thai hot I really mean Thai hot and no I do not want a bowel of hot chili paste to stir in.

This powder is excellent. Good and hot. Put it on most anything you want to add heat to.

My wife and I love spicy foods and she especially loves to cook. This little bottle offers a flavor along the lines of smoky but sweet, almost fruity. It pairs beautifully with bell peppers. Don't overdo it though (or do...) on the first try - a little goes a long way and if you underestimate this powder you might end up with something that you won't enjoy eating. We add it to almost everything (even breakfast) and it is now a staple in our spice cabinet. However, be cautious feeding family and friends who don't share the same enthusiasm for spice... my wife made a batch of jerk chicken with just a small shake of the reaper powder and a few of our dinner guests went completely red in the face after trying it; some were even visibly sweating. While they went after the milk, my wife was crying from laughter.

Poor packaging, but above average flavor with Reaper-like heat. This is the best Reaper powder available. Not perfect, but heads and shoulders above everyone else. I've become a bit of a heat chaser myself and have been on a Carolina Reaper kick for months now. Reapers I consume and other Reaper based powders I've used are fruity with a slight bitterness. This powder is smoky with burnt chipotle notes and salty. The top of the lid broke right off upon my initial inspection, but I transferred the contents to an appropriate glass container. I dusted my egg garlic and onion basmati rice and chicken 65 lunch with this stuff and...WOW! It definitely brings a good Reaperesque heat. I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely not for those who are sensitive to spicy foods, and please take precautions to keep out of the reach of children. I will be using this powder to create a variation of my family Texas Pork Shoulder and Butt Rub recipe. I'm not unhappy, but I am still searching for a more accurate representation of the Reaper in powder form.
