• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

This is for any teams competing this weekend, or for that matter any one associated with the contest.
I can get Jalepeno peppers for $2.00 a five pound case.
The Produce Purveyor that I buy from at work has over bought and is letting them go at this crazy price. I bought a case today and going to pickle some tomorrow. I can have them delivered to my work and then bring you down a case on Saturday.
However this is a limited time offer, I will place the order tomorrow afternoon for Friday.
Sign up and let me know, what the charge me is what you pay.

My brother loves them and I'll make some chipotles.....Thanx!

Care to share your process? Mine has been hit and miss. I've had some that are decent, and others that I just pitched because the fire got too hot and they were scorched or it died when I couldn't keep waking up to keep it going. They are cheap enough down here that it isn't an issue for me, but I'd like to be able to do my own.

If you can find something or someone to keep you awake and get your peppers dried good here is the recipe I made using them dried ones to make my own chipotles in a jar. You need to be aware that this was a test batch, so you should proly do the same or close to it and see what adjustments you need to make before doing a big amount.

I started with 1 cup catsup and 2 cups water, about ½ cup white vinegar and ½ cup chopped onion, added about 15 dried japs and started simmering slowly till they had cooked down by over half and looked like the right consistency. Easy as could be and turned out perfect.

I dunno what I'll do with them but I'll take em for that price. See you Saturday.

We've done them a couple of different ways. I've done them in the vertical of the BYC, though, the two best times. I find that the bottom shelf of the vertical towards the left is the coldest spot and with the baffle in place, I can keep the temperature around 100 degrees or so. I put them on a wire pizza disc.

Other than that there isn't much of a process. I know Mark is the real expert on this stuff....mine probably aint much to talk of against those, but I've been using some combination of cherry, hickory and oak and cooking them until they get all raisiny....If they aren't looking right after about 12 hours or so, or I just get fed up I'll take them off the pit and put them in the oven on low w/ the door cracked.

If someone wants to split up a case 3 or 4 ways. I don't know what I would do with 5 lbs by myself. What is the best way to preserve them?

Thanks Greendriver, BYC. I'll give both methods a shot.

I've always used a burn barrel for mesquite and added coals to the fire box with a chunk thrown in here and there.

Sorry to hijack your thread Ray!
 
I'll split a case with porky!!
 
Last chance folks, I am going to call in the order at 7 pm EST.
I am up to 10 cases, can add on more...
