Psycho Scratchin's

Come to papa!

Man has been searching for the perfect 'pub snack' ever since we brewed that first beer. Alcohol gives you the munchies, and for a while, bags of salted peanuts (pinned to cardboard featuring a naked woman, remember those?) seemed to be the Daddy. Not any more, daddy has found a hotter model. And when I say HOT, think Christie Brinkley wearing nothing but high heels, a come-to-bed smile and holding a neon sign saying F**KING HOT.
Ladies and gentlemen, moshers and maggots, I bring thee Psycho Scratchin's! Or rather Dr Burnorium (www.hotsauceemporium.co.uk) does, since he is the evil genius behind these fabulously, fiery snacks of awesome. Yup, the creator of Psycho Juice hot sauce has gone and done it again. Praise the lord (of hot stuff.) I didn't think pork crackling could get better but holy sweet pepper, Psycho Scratchin's are the dog's wotsits. It took all my willpower, paper thin at the best of times, not to eat three bags in one go. Moreish isn't the word (well it is but you know what I mean.)
Delicious pork rind liberally dusted with Ghost Pepper (Naga Jolokia) with a satisfying crunch, and as a bonus these don't taste half as salty as inferior crackling. I love the heat of these too, face melt for sure, but a very pleasant face melt! (See me eating them in vid below.) If you fancy something different, put down that dry roasted peanut, and head on over to Dr Burnorium's Hot Sauce Emporium and order some. I guarantee you'll be back for more, these are special indeed.
Now this is the third time I have featured Dr Burnorium's sauces and snacks in my blogs and before anyone starts wondering if I am on his payroll or not, nope, im not. The reason for these 'reviews' is simple; when I discover a fantastic product I get excited (like getting a new Slayer album,) I want to share it with others so they don't miss out, I want to 'give it props' as our American cousins would say. Go tell it on the mountain! Or perhaps volcano would be more apt in this case since these Scratchin's are like little lava chunks, waiting to melt in yer gob in a fireball of great flavour and wicked heat.
So no payroll here, just a very satisfied customer who will keep returning for more Psycho Juice awesomness. Pain shouldn't taste this good.

Blair's After Death Sauce

Stovies

Got this recipe from a Scottish friend (thanks Glynis!) and im totally making it because it sounds like something im going to love.
How to make stovies - fry some link sausages. Peel some potatoes and onions. In a deep pan place a layer of sliced potatoes, then a layer of sliced onions, then a layer of the cut up cooked sausage. Keep going till everything is used. Generously salt and pepper, then add enough water to cover the bottom of the pot. Bring to a simmer and cover. Cook for 20 minutes, or until the tatties are mush, then mash with a masher.....totally delicious, but do taste better with square/Lorne sausage.
Add more pepper as you mash. Best eaten with French bread and butter.

Real Beef (Burgers)

There Will Be Blood

This was a REAL beef burger (bought at a butchers) coming out from under my grill ten minutes ago. Served with melted cheese on top and in a fresh crusty roll, it tasted heavenly! The blood? Well you never see that coming from puny supermarket burgers which just goes to show how awful they must be. You are cooking meat from a (formerly) living creature remember? There should be blood! Or else im wondering just what kind of animal those supermarkets are putting in their 'beef'.
The 'coup de grâce' of this fine snack was a good few drops of Satan's Rage hot pepper sauce which really did add the kind of sting I look for in a burger. Carnivorous Corpse!



Before cooking

Me v Blair's Death Sauce

Whisky and hot sauce wise?

Blair's Mega Death Sauce - A habanero sauce with cayenne, white vinegar, ancho chilies, chipotles, natural pepper flavor, molasses, guava nectar, ginger, salt, and spices. 550,000 Scoville units. 650 times hotter than a Jalapeño chile.

I did it!! I took on Blair's Mega Death sauce and lived to tell the tale! And to answer the burning question (see what I did there?) YES IT BURNS!! This sauce is not for the faint of heart (or those with cotton lined gullets.) But it is bearable, especially if you enjoy hot/spicy food. A lot of these powerfully strong sauces taste like dirt but this is rather tasty, and has a tomato flavour with a hint of pepper. If it wasn't for the fact it is so potent, I would be replacing my regular ketchup with it.
Most people buy Blair's sauces for the danger or 'novelty facor' (its one way of getting dinner guests talking!) but its so much more than a cheap trick at supper, Blair's Mega Death sauce really does add something special to any meal/snack. It certainly livened up my burger! (I will be adding a drop to my next vindaloo to crank it up further so stay tuned for that.)

I had read a lot of things online about the mega death sauce, some of it wildly exaggerated, some bang on the money accurate but this is what rang true for me the most ~ do not plan on dabbing a drop on your tongue to “get a feel for it”. This is very true, I only used a small blob and it was easily equal in strength to my hottest curry. So be warned: the wise will dilute this sauce with a drop of water if you are not used to hot peppers like the habanero. Im not kidding for the sake of dramatics either!
So final thoughts on Blair's Mega Death sauce; a tasty tang of tomato witha smidge of pepper, EXTREMELY HOT but bearable if you enjoy hot food. Very happy I tried it, will be adding this to a lot more snacks. Gulp!

Bonus extra ~ Its so powerful it works on toothache and headaches too. Seriously, the kick releases an endorphin rush which is the bodies natural painkiller, so it adds a nice extra to your meal.
