Ok, I've got a Congo Habanero plant I over-wintered last year. Plant is huge, and the Congo is a monster pepper.

Looking for something to do with the peppers, and I don't carry life insurance on my children.

As of right now, I'm planning to do a vodka infusion for bloody marys, tequila infused marinade for chicken, and I'm going to put some in the smoker. Any suggestions?

Do you know how to make a pepper sauce? Becuase somebody just gave me some peppers and i want to make some, but i dont know how. Do you just put vinegar in it? Maybe someone will explain that in this thread.

Dont want to hijack though.

I made a strawberry habanerro and mango habanerro pepper jelly with mine a few years ago.

If you mean pepper sauce for your greens, then you are close enough. When I make mine, I follow a few steps:

1) sterilize jars and lids/tops
2) stuff cool jars/bottles with peppers (cut a small slit in your peppers for more heat), garlic and peppercorns. Okra if I got it to eat later.
3) Boil a mixture of cider vinegar and water. Let cool for a few minutes.
4) Pour over peppers.
5) Seal and leave alone for about 3 weeks.

I have a pretty big plant now. My wife will use them seedless in some one-pot dishes. I could make pepper sauce, but that's kind of a "one-trick pony".
