Hey George, where are these chiles on the heat scale? I've been growing
jalapenos and stressing them and getting some great heat as well as
taste. My guess is my jalapenos are on par with most serranos, which is
enough heat for me. At least in recipes. I haven't tried any hotter ones
for hot sauce.
