A whole shot glass full of Extra-Hot isn't as hot as a teaspoon of the Extra-Extra Hot.It wouldn't surprise me if there were 20 chili's worth of strength in an Extra-Hot bottle, to be honest. 5,000 is the standard measure for a normal jalapeno. Obviously this fluctuates a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing ya wouldn't chuck some on the nicest bit o' steak that you've ever bought. ..... .or would you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On chicken does go pretty well also (Nando's style)Wouldn't want to ruin an already awesome flavour with something that burns and makes the experience not worthwhile at all, just for the sake of trying an unknown flavour/heat.
