I smoked some tomatillos last year for my verde sauce. It's still fermenting and I can't wait to blend it up and taste it. I haven't had a smoked element in my sauces before but I think it will be good.
@@7PotClub I have to say I have very low heat tolerance and still watch your channel. I do grow peppers and don't even eat them. I do it for the fun of it. I mainly give the peppers to my friends and family. Still enjoyed your videos and the positive vibe while learning more about pepper planting.
Excellent video! I also had a great time judging these hot sauces! It's definitely top being critical against then, as you said they were all quite delicious sauces and I also felt I wasn't sure how qualified I necessarily am to be a judge but I do eat a lot of hot sauce so at least I can compare styles! Really enjoyed this video I can't wait to check out more as I'm only newly subscribed!
Rob you did a wonderful job with that video! First I like how you demonstrated humility with being chosen a judge by saying so at least twice. Secondly you did a great job describing all the categories you judged sauces. I could almost imagine tasting them all. You also did an exceptional job not judging to hard on lack of heat 🔥...I know that was difficult! Lastly I love the editing to proper video length and taking out all the swallowing noises. I thoughly enjoyed but did miss your theme song, "I grow hot peppers". Take care and stay safe!
Thanks for the thoughtful comments Ben. Much appreciated! The video does have my standard opening with "I Grow Hot Peppers," Did it not play that for you?
Isn't it time to start getting some seeds in trays! I'm pretty pumped for this season with the variety I'm doing. Got a lot more asian peppers I want to try.
Hi Daniel! I'm excited to get started, but I've learned to wait until the first week of Feb. to start my seeds or else the plants get too crowded by the time they leave the basement in late May.
@@7PotClub That makes sense, Last year was my first time and started my seeds in April and had very tiny pepper plants with even fewer pods so I'm hoping to give them more time this year. I started my seeds a week ago and also hope I didn't start too early.
No, it's not necessary. There are a lot of sauces made with fresh peppers. It just brings out different flavors. Just like you can buy fresh-packed pickles or fermented ones.
I think you did a great job of reviewing/analyzing each sauce Rob. I even heard a couple of "WOW"s in there! You are a natural at this! I think it would be really nice to do this on a larger scale, maybe? I'd put forth a submission. Logistics might be tough, but a thought.
Well done Rob. Love the tee-shirt (part 1), but it must be cold there. I think my view is near around 1 million on your channel. Another Congrats. Hi to Kat ...
Hi Julia! I don't really want to get into the hot sauce business, but I'm into collaboration sauces like I really created with Hot Heads Official. I hope to do another collab sauce this year. I feel that selling physical products would take too much time away from my videos and music.
Do you find much for the more exotic hot seeds sold locally in your area Sir? All the mail order shops are warning weeks to deliver and time is burning to plant. Something like Chocolate Habenero (probably pretty tame and plain for this group) Basically, options beyond Burpee
@@7PotClub I'm just across the river from you. I am looking for pepper seeds more exotic than Burpee, for example chocolate habenero. That reminds me, I should see if Miss Market has their supply yet, I've bought Fatali there before. I'm not opposed to an out of state supplier, it's just looking like all the cooped up people looking for something to do are really hitting the seed suppliers hard and they are sold out or delayed. Thanks Sir!
I've never purchased any of my pepper seeds locally. I wouldn't know where to look. I get most of my seeds from a grower in the Canary Islands. People do some trading (and possibly selling) on the Facebook group Minnesota Hot Pepper Community, so that's a place to check out. But to buy exotic varieties, you really need to purchase online. A really good source is Jimmy Pickles, who is located in Pennsylvania: jppepperseeds.com
Hi Rob, awesome video. Have a question for ya. I searched far and wide and was FINALLY able to get some Aji Charapita seeds. Now I've seen online saying this stuff goes for THOUSANDS of dollars per pound. But I just find that hard to believe. Was wondering is there any truth to this, or if you could shed some light on the subject. Because if its true im in the wrong line of work, lol.
The value of Charapita powder is all based on one article from several years ago. Now that this pepper is much more popular and available, I'll bet that inflated price has come down, if it ever was that high. But it is very labor intensive to pick and process so many tiny pods, and it takes thousands to create a pound or kilo of dried powder. 😀
@@7PotClub Thank you Rob. I knew that had to be an outrageous claim. But I am looking forward to tasting these since I've heard how delicious they are, lol.
I wish I could try them all too. Reaper Squeezins by Puckerbutt Company is still my favorite sauce. I've been adding the 7 Pot Orange Primo powder to everything from pizzas to dry spicy wings and it's awesomely insane and tasty! Due to last year's bacterial leaf spot in my 12ft by 12ft right angle raised bed ill be going herbs and kale this year. I can't wait to buy the official orange 7 pot club shirt and watch this years garden/harvest/songs! Have a great day Rob and Kat and rock on!
I really tried to edit out most of that this time after some similar comments on the One Chip Challenge video. I guess in the future I'll wear a buttoned shirt so I can position the mic at chest level.
Great video rob!
Thanks ChiliChump! You are an inspiration to me, so that means a lot.
@@7PotClub that is very kind of you to say Rob!
Get in touch if you ever want to do a collaboration or something like that!
I would so love to do that. I will definitely be in touch!
You just became one of my favourites. Keep up the good work. Can't wait for 2021 progress videos
Wow, thanks!
Nice job!!
Thanks James!
I'm looking forward to seeing your 2021 grow season kick-off video. That'll let me know that it's time to make preparations of my own. 😄
Coming soon!
I freaking love when you do reviews! Always very insightful.
Thanks for watching!
Awesome Rob love your videos
Thanks Keith!

Sounds great!
i am anxiously awaiting the 2021 seed starting day.
Hi Paul! I planted seeds last Sunday. Video coming soon!

It really was good. I hope to get some more soon.
You won’t have to wait long!!!
God damn Rob you are humble as hell. You seem well qualified. Great video once again.
Thanks!

"Reliably bland..." lmao. What a marketing plug. I'm sure they love it.
This was definitely super fun!
Glad you enjoyed it, Jac!
Hi Rob!! Love your videos! Quick question, are you ever going to consider selling your hot sauces? I’m sure many would love to try them! Thank you ❤️🙌

The 1A sauce was probably entered into more than one category. Hence the non green verde.
Ive been watching your videos for a few months now, I'm a big supporter. We at BORRACHOS HOT SAUCE would love for you to test out our Verde hot sauce.
Thanks!
You remind me of Robin Zander from Cheap Trick 😊😊😊
That's a compliment. Thanks!
Rob, you did a great job judging! I really enjoyed the video! Thank you !
Thanks Carolyn! 😀❤️🌶
I needed a good 7Pot Club video for my dose of wholesome feel-good RUclips content ✌️
Happy to oblige!

#verdewars fun vid as always
Thanks Jay!
I can't wait to see what you're going to submit if you decide to enter the competition next time
I think the flavour should be worth alot more, a sauce is no good if it is 10/10 for all catergories and 1/10 for flavour haha!
When I write the rules, I'll consider doing that!
Grilling and smoking ingredients? Yes. In a verde style? No.
This is weird, but I like to watch you eat. Lol.
It is a little weird, but I'm glad people want to watch me stuff things in mouth. Thanks!
To much mouth and swallow noises
It's really hard to minimize with the mic so close to throat.
The ASMR aspect is why I’m here.
I really tried to edit out most of that this time after some similar comments on the One Chip Challenge video. I guess in the future I'll wear a buttoned shirt so I can position the mic at chest level.
