Ok, I now know my limits

I'm a guy who loves to eat spicy food. So we eat at a Mongolian grill that I've never eaten at before, where you select your food while it's still raw, and bring it to a grill where it's cooked before your eyes. You also select your sauce, which I thought was for dipping. Well, as it turns out, they base the sauce into your food when you cook it.

Now, when selecting my sauces, I didn't even see the sign that said keep it simple and go easy on the spices. I selected Buffalo sauce, and added in 1-2 teaspoons each of Cayenne, Curry, Cajun, Chili, and Crushed Pepper powder spices.

After managing to eat about half of my meal, my lips and chin felt like they were sunburned and peeling, my taste buds were about gone, it felt awfully hot in the room, and I was sweating with a runny nose, and leaking tears out of my eyes, altough it wasn't of my accord.

I think I'll go easy on the spices next time around.

Must resist laughter.....

Ha! Silly spicy foods.

To be fair, my spice tolerance sucks. I do enjoy a *good* spicy meal don't get me wrong, but last night I went out to eat and the mixed vegies I had basically had ground pepper cooked into them. A lot of ground pepper. It was not pleasant.

I love spicy foods, but that's too much even for me.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Mongolian grills are fantastic :love Other than nuke-bombing your lips, I hope you enjoyed it ;)

I love spicy stuff as well. Give me a call if you're ever in Wisconsin and I'll buy you food at Quaker Steak and Lube. Probably some of the best buffalo wings there are and the hottest sauce I've ever had.

Hottest stuff is the 'Atomic' sauce, I think its made from habanero chilies. They make you sign a waiver before they let you order the stuff (probably a gimmick, but meh.) I've only had the step down from atomic and my mouth was in flames after the first two wings.

The atomic sauce is apparently five times hotter than the stuff so I'm kinda scared to try it out.

[Zem-El Vymes]

Hey awesome want me to come and pepper spray you in the face recreationally?

Geeeez thats a lot of stuff.

Now I'm craving Mongolian Grill. :(

Remember to read all the signs next time you eat somewhere new. :p

I love how you still ate half your meal. I'd have taken the first bite, laughed, then said, "No way, man. I like having working taste buds. I'm getting something else."

Well, lesson learned, hopefully. Go easy on the crazy.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Usually mongolian grills are all you can eat, so you could have just tried again :p

[Figrin D'an]

If you want hot beyond imagination, find a specialty cooking supply market and see if they have bottles of stuff called "The Source." It's about $100 a bottle (and it's a small bottle, like 6 oz), and is only meant to be used as a cooking additive, a couple drops at a time. The warning label clearly says "Not intended for direct human consumption," and most places won't sell it without getting the customer to sign a waiver (and this one isn't a gimmick). 7.1 million Scoville units, if you are familiar with that scale.

[Karl Valten]

Damn!!! The atomic sauce I was talking about only clocks in at about 180,000.

To give a comparison, Tobasco sauce(pretty hot, right), is between 7000 and 8000 SHU. I'm pretty sure that 'The Source' is literally very dangerous stuff if its not dilute.

[Khendon Sevon]

That sounds like it should be illegal.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Mongolian grill sounds cool. No such thing in my locality, that I know of, though :(

Not to mention the fact that I am the biggest wuss when it comes to spicy food ^_^;

[Lilaena De'Ville]

You make up the sauce yourself so you can make it as spicy or mild as you like. :)

[Park Kraken]

Yeah the Mongol grill I ate at charges 10$ for a bowl of food, per a bowl, and offers a wide variety of meats, mostly seafood or beef types, with noodles, a wide variety of veggies, and when you make your sauce, you get to choose from about 30 different types of sauce and 20 different types of powdered spices. The food is then cooked in front of you (like at some different Japanese steakhouses), then you eat it, usually watching a wide variety of television sets.

As for spicy wings, Beef O Bradys has a sauce called Nuclear for their wings. It's very hot, although not quite lip burning hot.

Oh, and for the Mongol food choices, I put roast beef, chicken, and steak into mine, and added noodles, water chestnuts, greens, and something else that I can't remember.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Our local grill is a little different - its all you can eat. :yum

I'm still craving it :cry
