So what does one do with Ghost Peppers?

BarbJ · September 13, 2012

I bought one just for fun to see how it would grow here. Didn't have any expectations.
But the darn thing is producing like mad. I have at least 7 pretty good sized green ones and dozens more coming. And this is in a 3 gallon pot! It's head got lopped off early so it has three main branches and is really quite a pretty plant.

So...other than repelling elephants and making scary tasting video's for Youtube

, what do people do with these?

I like hot peppers, but mostly Serrano, Thai, and this year Joe's Long Cayenne, (which is awesome btw!)

Are they best dried? Or is it just for fun and not eating?
