Contest #823 – PuckerButt Pepper Company, Fort Mill, South Carolina, USA
This week’s contest is a different kind of heat — this is the storefront of the PuckerButt Pepper Company owned by Ed Curie, developer of the Carolina Reaper Chili, the record holder for the hottest chili pepper in the world (in excess of 2,000,000 scoville units). Of course, this is a moving target, it seems like every other day, someone is coming up with a new, hotter chili, but Ed seems to be doing a good job of holding the title this time. In fact, if anything does push the reaper off of Guiness’ list, it will be his next cultivar, a pepper he refers to as “Pepper X” with an astounding 3.2 million scoville units.

Contest #823 Hint
Couldn’t find where it was grown, only where it was sold. What you buy here should come with a warning label about feeling it the next day.
