Inferno Elixer Hot Sauce Ghost Pepper

Ghost peppers, or Bhut Jolokia, are famous for their intense heat. With a Scoville rating that can surpass a million, these little fireballs pack a serious punch. But they’re more than just heat. They have a smoky, almost fruity flavor that adds a complex, lingering warmth to sauces. This Inferno Elixir Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce delivers bold, smoky flavor with serious heat—perfect for spice lovers looking to kick up their favorite dishes. They mingle with savory onion and garlic, balanced by the brightness of lime juice. It’s a perfect blend that delivers serious heat with layers of flavor that keep you coming back for more.

This hot sauce has a way of sneaking up on you. At first, you get a tangy, smoky kick, followed by the robust flavor of roasted garlic and onion. But then, bam—the ghost pepper heat makes its grand entrance, spreading like wildfire across your taste buds. And that heat lingers, but don’t let that scare you off! It’s perfect for spicing up chili, livening up taco night, or giving wings a serious kick. If you’re feeling adventurous, try adding a few drops to a Bloody Mary for a bold, spicy twist.

The texture is smooth, thanks to a quick blend and a strain through a fine mesh sieve. It’s thick enough to cling to food but still pourable, making it super versatile. A dash on your eggs in the morning? Yes. Brushed over ribs on the grill? Absolutely. Mixed into a marinade for an extra fiery kick? Go for it! Inferno Elixir Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce might not be your everyday hot sauce—unless you’re really into heat. But it shines when you want to impress at a backyard barbecue or add a unique flair to a cozy family dinner. Picture this: a big bowl of chili simmering on the stove, friends gathered around on game day, and a bottle of this hot sauce sitting proudly in the center of the table. Or maybe it’s a brisk night, and you’re warming up with a bowl of soup—just a few drops of Inferno Elixir Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce will add that perfect zing.

If you’re new to ghost peppers, proceed with caution. A little goes a long way, and you might want to keep some milk nearby—just in case. But trust me, once you’ve embraced the burn, you’ll find yourself reaching for this bottle again and again, eager for that burst of heat that only a ghost pepper can deliver.

  • Yield: About 1 cup of hot sauce
  • Category: Sides & Sauces

Ingredients

  • 6-8 ghost peppers
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste

 

Instructions

  1. Approach with caution when handling ghost peppers, as they are exceptionally hot.
  2. Remove stems from peppers and roughly chop them.
  3. In a saucepan, combine ghost peppers, onion, garlic, water, lime juice, salt, and pepper.
