Spicey Food: The Atomic Kick Ass Challenge
 

Muhammad Karim—the cook at Bindi Restaurant, in Lincolnshire, England—is the inventor of the Atomic Kick Ass Drumsticks. He has to wear a gas mask when he prepares the sauce to stop the vapors getting into his nose. Inhalation of those vapors can cause facial paralyses or even death by asphyxia.

The sauce contains two of the spiciest chillies in the world—including the Carolina Reaper which hits 1,569,300 on the Scoville heat measurement scale.

If you think you can handle spicy the restaurant offers the "Atomic Kick Ass Challenge", for the chance to win £100, $168. All you have to do is eat 10 drumsticks covered in sauce in less than 15 minutes. Only 20 people have taken the challenge so far, and the record currently stands at 2 drumsticks.

I enjoy the original Dave's Insanity Sauce (180k on the scale) used lightly. I don't think I would go any higher than that for flavor.

It cracks me up to see "common pepper spray" and "police grade pepper spray"...and then a bunch of food items higher than that.

6/8 posters in this thread so far agree: I would create this thread.

The article and the Scoville chart are formatted weirdly. I couldn't just copy and paste it all.

I would try it.

I regularly cook with Blair's 3am extract.

1,500,000 - 2,000,000, scoville units

yeah, but what's your 40 time?

I do not understand the whole I eat hot food because it's hot

I would much rather eat tasty food because its tasty

He's making him eat more than drumsticks but also the sauce in the bowl. Not enough money to get me to do that. Ten in 15 mins. I'd want $2k.

I hate food that hot. Burns so you can't taste much.

shit I think the mango habenero wings at BWW are crazy hot. miserable eating them that 'one time'

I like the taste of habanero peppers. They are delicious. But they are borderline too hot to eat for me. My oldest son is one of those people that gets into this stuff though. As a teen he considered it a challenge to his manhood. I thought it was stupid as hell, but he provided hours of cheap entertainment for the family, so I went along with it. The only thing that annoyed me was that he would go through way too much Tabasco sauce. I'd bitch at him, "It doesn't get hotter if you put more on you dumbass! We buy it for the flavor."

I agree about the Habeneros.

They have an amusing tanginess.

I'm not saying I could do it. A little of that shit goes a LONG way.. I just wouldn't be afraid to try.

I remember one night I put down 24 blazin' wings from BWW after drinking an entire bottle of FireFly sweet tea vodka.

I shat lava the next morning.

JFC 24?
I split an order with 2 other friends. I had 2 and thought I was going to die.

makes him spoon it up :facepalm:

dude would have killed 10 drumsticks. making him spooning it up was a bitch move by the cook LMAO

here...wash that down with some gasoline. let me light that for you.

I actually saw a guy take a bite of a burrito with a couple of drops of original Juan's "The Source".......thought we were going to have to rush the damned fool to the hospital. Never saw anything like it. It ought to be illegal to sell that crap. I walked into their store in KCK a few years back - it made your eyes water to walk in the front door.

I have a bottle of Blair's 2am Reserve on the shelf. I don't use it because it has a wax seal and just plain looks cool.

I was going to ask if anyone had the Blair's stuff. I thought it was hot sauce until I started clicking the links. Very cool looking bottle of capsicum crystals (?) that you use as a seasoning (?). The higher end bottles of it were limited runs that have been sold out so I assume it was more of a collectors item.

Trying to find a pic that does justice to the bottle. The one on the site isn't all that great. After a quick search this is the best I could find of the 16 Mil one:

http://bi.gazeta.pl/im/1/6191/z6191631Q.jpg

This. I'd rather enjoy my food rather than feel like my mouth had lava poured into it.

This is almost exactly what my bottle looks like. I had to sign a waiver to buy it.

http://www.hotsauce.com/v/vspfiles/photos/1701-2.jpg

That is pretty cool looking. I can't imagine actually using it.

It becomes an actual physical addiction. Capsaicin causes your body to think that your mouth is physically on fire, so it also releases a flood of endorphins. Endorphins are your body's natural pain defense, and gives you a happy high feeling. It also releases lots of dopamine, which is another happy reward sensation. It's that sensation that you get addicted to. It makes you physically happy. You get great joy and pleasure from the reaction your body has to it. No different than crack.

IIRC very hot foods cause pleasurable chemicals to be released in your brain.

Yeah...that, lol.

There's 2 reasons I don't use it.

1. I don't want to break that bad ass seal and
2. There's a sticker on the plastic case it came in that says "WARNING! This is NOT a sauce, it is an ingredient. 1 teaspoon of Blair's 2am Reserve to 1 gallon of sauce produces EXTREME heat."

I freaking LOVE the Atomic Wings at Wingstop.

I opened my bottle and dipped a Cheeto in it. It doesn't play around

I have a love/hate relationship with stuff like this. I have to will myself not to collect things.

The cook in this video seems like a douchebag. Spooning up the sauce? That is really weak. It's not like the guy wiped the drumsticks off or anything. You cover the legs in sauce and then move them to the serving plate.

Making him take back what he said about being able to take down 10 wings? Pretty pathetic.

Yep that is what I was thinking. D bag. Surprised he didn't make him lick the plate clean to win. :shake:
