The Fried Chicken Pepper is an Italian-born superhot with one of the most recognizable pods in the game, bred from two respected superhot lines. We hand-harvest every pod at peak ripeness, dry them low and slow, and grind them in small batches here at Harmony Springs Farm in Blountville, Tennessee. No smoke, no fillers: just the bright, fruity flavor of the pod and a heat that builds fast.

About the heat: one independent lab test came in just over 1,000,000 SHU, and the community puts it at 850,000 to over 1 million, with high-expression grows estimated even higher. Growers and tasters agree on one thing: the burn hits harder than the numbers suggest. Start with a pinch.

Use it in hot sauce, wing sauce, salsa, marinades, or anywhere you want clean, serious heat.

Net wt. 1 oz. Handcrafted. 100% pure pepper, nothing added.
