My wife and I love spicy foods and she especially loves to cook. This little bottle offers a flavor along the lines of smoky but sweet, almost fruity. It pairs beautifully with bell peppers. Don't overdo it though (or do...) on the first try - a little goes a long way and if you underestimate this powder you might end up with something that you won't enjoy eating. We add it to almost everything (even breakfast) and it is now a staple in our spice cabinet. However, be cautious feeding family and friends who don't share the same enthusiasm for spice... my wife made a batch of jerk chicken with just a small shake of the reaper powder and a few of our dinner guests went completely red in the face after trying it; some were even visibly sweating. While they went after the milk, my wife was crying from laughter. Read more

This is a super hot powder that doesn't change the flavor of your food. The heat is intense from just a sprinkle, so add slow. Added this to wing sauce and pasta and this left me with tears in my eyes and a wet head. Where as hot sauce can change the taste of foods, this just makes it hot. Wash hands twice after using and beware of the top of the canister as it is poorly made. It will open up and spill a large bit of content and be cautious cleaning it up. The mfr really needs to do a better packaging job, raise the price to do it! Seriously, it's a bad flaw for a really top five star powder. Read more

Poor packaging, but above average flavor with Reaper-like heat. This is the best Reaper powder available. Not perfect, but heads and shoulders above everyone else. I've become a bit of a heat chaser myself and have been on a Carolina Reaper kick for months now. Reapers I consume and other Reaper based powders I've used are fruity with a slight bitterness. This powder is smoky with burnt chipotle notes and salty. The top of the lid broke right off upon my initial inspection, but I transferred the contents to an appropriate glass container. I dusted my egg garlic and onion basmati rice and chicken 65 lunch with this stuff and...WOW! It definitely brings a good Reaperesque heat. I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely not for those who are sensitive to spicy foods, and please take precautions to keep out of the reach of children. I will be using this powder to create a variation of my family Texas Pork Shoulder and Butt Rub recipe. I'm not unhappy, but I am still searching for a more accurate representation of the Reaper in powder form. Read more

This stuff is hot!!! It brings intense heat to any dish. Not alot of seasoning is required, just a dab is enough but it does pack a powerful punch. We use chicken, veggies, curry, eggs and more. Read more
