Absoutley! Some like it hot and do not. It all depends on the crowd Im feeding. for thoes who like it really hot…leave a few seeds in the peppers… it will really bring on the heat!

Now here is another memory for sure…and not quite as hot with some of those seeds removed but still get burners that keep giving long after. When I was younger could in-hale these have slowed some now but still can gobble em up bring tears to your eyes either your happy or hot 🙂
