That's the issue with jalapeños. They don't taste that great and they are not spicy. Pointless unless you can't handle spicy food.

These were the old style, ground up chicken parts nuggets. My intestines will probably stage a revolt or something in a few hours.

In Houston we get a wide Scoville range in all of our chiles. I imagine the different regions where they are grown may provide different results. Even serranos can be from bland to really rough.

All this talk of Tex-Mex and Mexican is making me hungry.

And, I need to go to bed and study for my FTP test early in the AM.

...and Jalapenos definitely have a different flavor than Serrano.
I tend to make my guac' cool and my salsa nuclear...so Jalapeno in the guac and Serrano or Habanero in the salsas...

Cilantro is $0.25/bunch
Lol, last week three Serrano peppers set me back $0.01, I kid you not.
So it's almost ethically wrong not to cook up some green salsa, it costs like $1 per quart to make and it's seriously tasty stuff.

Sure. That's because they are moving toward the ripe state used to smoke-dry for chipotles. Much hotter than immature jalapenos.

Welp, I did my duty and tried to convince the wife to go see Deadpool over Valentines Day weekend. She's not interested, so I guess that I'll have to see it with the guys, instead.

It's a real problem having our anniversary on Valentine's Day. Whenever it is near or on the weekend we're always fighting the crowded restaurants, dealing with fixed menus many places. This year (46) we're invoking a couple of crowd avoidance maneuvers. On the 12th we'll have the Friday 3" pork chop lunch special at Perry's Steakhouse (brined, smoked, roasted all for $13.95 with taters). Finish up the day with an early movie and then dessert. Then we will wait 'til Monday night after all the hoopla is over to go out to celebrate over dinner.

Mrs. LAJ was making salsa one Sunday, and I assumed she left me a little taste on the counter. There was a bowl, and chips, so I dug in. The minute I took a bite, I realized my mistake. It was the Ghost mixture she used to "cut" the mild salsa, as she makes different levels of heat in a big batch. That was torture for about half an hour. Otherwise, her salsa is delicious.
