My husband sucked on ice for an hour after I told him not to overdo it. Five starts for the comedy.
As a self-proclaimed spice connoisseur (I once cried eating hot wings and called it a spiritual awakening), I can confidently say this ghost pepper powder delivers. The flavor is rich and smoky with just enough fire to remind you that you’re alive—and maybe question your life choices if you overdo it. It’s not a heat that bullies your dish; it actually enhances it. I’ve added it to pasta, pizza, salad, even a rogue spoonful of mac and cheese, and it never overpowers. The amount, imo, is a very good size for the price and that doesn't take away from the quality. The openings for it are wide so it is easy to overdo if you don't know how much to use, but you learn quickly after the first mistake. Some people complained about the smell, but I don't mind it... I won't huff it because I'll die from the spice, but it's not outrageously terrible, it's just neutral.

DO NOT Pan Fry with no vent running with this on meat
I was coughing up a lung last night from the smoke containing high spice levels. Make sure you properly vent or stick to adding at the end of cooking; or into more liquid based meals like Chili or Soup. The flavor is very non intrusive, the last Ghost Pepper seasoning I had was smoked ghost pepper and it would alter the flavor profile -- this one is perfect for adding heat without ruining any flavors.

Great for fending off the varmints!
I don't use this to cook - I'm sure it's way too hot for me. I use it to keep the chipmunks, squirrels, woodchucks, and other varmints away from my garden and container plants, and it works really really really well!!!I got the idea after trying the birdseed that's coated with "hot" pepper in my birdfeeders. The pepper birdseed is supposed to discourage the squirrels from raiding the birdfeeders, but the squirrels around here find it quite tasty - they love it! The cayenne or whatever they use on those seeds just isn't hot enough. But this ghost pepper is way hotter and it only takes one taste for the squirrels and chipmunks to learn NOT to try it again.Last year the woodchucks ate my beautiful hostas right down to the ground. This year I sprinkled the hosta bed thoroughly with this pepper powder and what a difference! The hostas are thriving! I also sprinkle it on the containers where I've planted various bulbs - no more digging, giving the plants a chance to grow.The only problem with using this as a pest-repellent is that rain or watering will wash it away so you have to reapply it. I'm hoping that if I keep using it often enough eventually the pests will have learned their lesson and will stay away, so I won't have to use quite as much.I don't want to use poison or kill or maim the critters - I just want to keep them away from my plants - and this does the trick perfectly: One taste of ghost pepper means a minute or two of discomfort for the interlopers but a summer of beautiful plants for me.

Spicy, gets the endorphing flowing.
The quality of this product is exceptional. Its taste is excellent and provides an array of spice. I would not recommend using it for cooking. I must say though, if you enjoy the feeling of the spice eating away at your stomach lining I don't think you should be opposed to cooking with this product, however, I enjoy applying it to garlic bread for added flavor. This product is not intended for use in a single day due to its potency. Given the quantity provided, it is well worth its price.

Kinda spicy, I guess, but I've had hotter.
It has some bite, and a little smokiness, but im not feeling the regret I would get, from pouring on the ghost peppers. This almost seems like a red savino habanero, rather than a ghost pepper based topping.

It is real, and it's pretty hot / spicy.
Some Chili powders I've seen claim to be "Ghost Pepper" but the contents are Cayenne pepper mixed with other spices or other pepper blends, but often contain no Ghost pepper powder.After growing my own Ghost peppers, drying and grinding them, I can confirm that the contents of this IS absolutely Ghost pepper. It tastes exactly like the ones I grew and ground... If you like "hot", this is "Hot" without being overkill (like Reaper Pepper powder, which is good for pretty much nothing food related)..

Amazing Spice & Flavor Profile
I am a Nashville native. We are famous for our Nashville Hot Chicken. Our spicy chicken is cayenne based. Cayenne is my favorite pepper for its flavor and color. However it is not providing me with endorphins from the spice that is use to, simply because cayenne is a mild pepper (hot to the average person). Some of our hottest chicken uses ghost pepper. I love our hottest offerings in Nashville, so I had to add the pepper to my kitchen.Upon getting it, I opened and smelled the powder. I LOVE the aromatics it gives off. I tested a little on my finger, and said to myself "I got this." I added 3/4 tsp to my taco beef-based meat. It came out amazing. Provided me with the endorphins – a high – I crave from spicy peppers. It also added a nice depth a flavor. Flavor is uniquely delicious. Nice red color with orange undertones. I then proceeded to cook traditional Nashville hot chicken, and added this powder (see picture). It came out amazing, and tasted just like Hattie B's "Shut the Cluck Up."My tolerance is super high, so this is like cayenne to me. For the average person this will be torture. You will probably be reaching for milk or other forms of dairy. I would only use this if you're a chili head, meaning you eat extremely spicy foods often. Because this was such an amazing experience, I will be buying this brand's scorpion and reaper powder when my tolerance goes up.
