A few days ago I was inspired to try a recipe for Sriracha Pickled Eggs, and today I followed through with the eggs and some onions.
Now begins the wait for the brine and seasonings to work their magic, next weekend I can crack the jars and try the fruits of my labors, oh yeah!

I about cleared the house with the Sriracha brine boiling, the acridness almost required a gas mask, it was intense.
I now know why the residents and City of Irwindale, CA were at odds with the Sriracha factory's emissions, WOW!

Looking forward to these!

My recipe for the eggs was:

24 hard boiled eggs
6C white vinegar
3C water
2/3C Sriracha Chili Garlic
1/3C El Yucateco Habanero XXX
3T sea salt
6 cloves garlic, sliced
1/2 med white & red onions, sliced thin
2 lrg Jalapeño chiles, chopped

Sterilize jars and lids
Place peeled eggs into a 1/2 gallon canning jar
Combine everything except the eggs in a large nonreactive stock pot.
Bring to a boil then let cool slightly
Pour mixture over eggs, cover eggs completely and then seal, shake to mix and then refrigerate
Let at least a week go by for the flavors to really permeate the eggs
The spices have a tendency to settle in the jar so shake it daily to remix

Plain & Sriracha Onions

My sinuses, lungs and tear ducts were all opened earlier... I'm telling ya boiling the brine was downright chemical warfare worthy.

I'm a serious ChileHead, these will probably rate as somewhat mild, but very flavorful.
I almost added a teaspoon of Hillbilly Gunpowder to it, that would've made it HOT!
The HG is a blend of seven of the world's hottest chiles.

Today Sriracha.  Tomorrow the Carolina Reaper.   :'(  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

The Carolina Reaper is one of the seven chiles in Hillbilly Gunpowder.  ;)
Next time I may use some.

Holy Cow John! :o
I would not want to be any where near your rear end when that cannon goes off. :D
A friend of mine at work grows his own Carolina Reapers.
I tried some of his Salsa once. Never again. I ate several bites before it kicked in.
It felt like My Tongue had been hit by a Hammer!
That is the only way I can describe it. :P

I ate some Italian Hot Finger Peppers stuffed with Sardines last night. They were enough for me.

I have not failed.  I just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

According to the Guinness Book of Records, it is the hottest pepper in the world.  2.2 million scovilles.  Dominick

I've not eaten a Carolina Reaper raw, but I've had them in various forms and they are mind blowing, insanely hot.
Thought I was brave once eating a Ghost Pepper (Bhut Jolokia).

Here, y'all can have a good laugh at my expense, which of course why I made the video.  ;)

Good stuff John, very entertaining :). Try a slice of white bread next time to put the fire out.
Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.
