So this is one of my last few post of “extreme” heats because 1 I’ve been told to cut it out here at home because nobody can hang and 2. I really don’t even gravitate towards hot peppers or really much spice in the winter. Which is odd because you’d think if you’re cold you’d like to warm up but no. I like a more wholesome well rounded heat then rings of fire. 3. Hot peppers don’t grow well in winter but that’s not really a factor since they freeze incredibly. So for this sandwich I upped the ante to give my classic buffalo some kick. The ghost pepper was incredibly tolerable and super flavorful! If you can stand the heat try this ranch out here. But try this out and let me know what you think!
