Let’s talk pepper jelly with cream cheese and crackers.

Personally I find that the homemade ones are the best. I had one my wife picked up from chez cakes in thibodaux. Haven’t been able to find it since. Believe it had some crab boil in it, and yes I’ve tried the Houma brand. Not as good.

I prefer ritz or club crackers.

Please share your favorites/ honeyholes where you find a good homemade pepper jelly.

Most of them out there are pretty good. One of my favorites is to find a mayhaw pepper jelly. I usually buy pepper jelly at farmers' markets in various places.

Tabasco is pretty good when you don't have a homemade one.

We usually get these from Hollygrove Market in New Orleans, made by Pepperland Farms.

They have like 5-6 different one

For us, the misc crackers at Trader Joes can't be beat.

I made some last year with peaches, habanero, and a single ghost pepper. I trimmed all the white flesh to get more flavor and hopefully get less heat. I also added a little more sugar than normal to make up for the higher heat level. It was so good.

My friend makes a great jalapeno pepper jelly. Goes great with a nice meat/cheese plate. Or charcuterie for you fancy folks.

Not so fancy pic of a plate served on my bait cutting board on the boat


Eta...for store bought I buy a local brand that make several kinds. I love their pineapple-jalapeno jelly. Oh god

make it yourself, follow the recipe on the back of the Certo package. I find they are all too sweet and only sweet. I add garlic and extra jalapenos and maybe some crab boil to kick it up

I've tried quite a few and always go back to Tabasco.

This stuff in the cheese section at whole foods



And speaking of cream cheese, a log of that with a bottle of pickapeppa poured over it is divine.

t00f, those look pretty good. I live in Nola, so I'll have to check them out.
Thanks to everyone for responding. I've been frustrated by a string of 2-3 in a row that haven't been very good.
