Homemade Hot Sauce With Cayenne Peppers?

I got 2 cayenne pepper plants growing right now with lots of big peppers on it. I want to make hot sauce with them when they are done growing. Anyone know a good way to do it? Looking to make something similar to texas pete hot sauce or franks.

10 large fresh red cayenne chiles
2 cloves garlic, peeled
3/4 cup white vinegar
Salt

Cut stems off peppers and cut peppers in half lengthwise. Remove seeds and ribs. Heat broiler. Place peppers, cut side down, on rack in broiler pan. Broil for about 5 minutes or until the skin blisters and blackens. Transfer peppers to a plastic bag for about 10 minutes. When cool, peel off skins.

Place chile pulp and garlic in a blender or food processor. With machine running, slowly add the vinegar until the mixture is well blended. Add salt to taste.

Makes about 1 cup.

This is great, sounds tasty. I my self have 7 Cayenne plants going and the peppers are the biggest iv ever seen a cayenne get! Im frickin psyched! They still have about 2 to 3 weeks to go as there not even turning red yet! Some are 4 inches long! I also have about 6 super chili plants going and the peppers on those bad boys are getting huge to. Im going to have about 50 to 60 peppers when harvest time comes so this hot sauce recipie sounds great and i will totaly try it with both the supers and the cayenne.

For a quick fresh hot sauce, try tossing a handful of peppers, fresh lime juice, and a big pinch of kosher or sea salt into a blender and whirl it up. Refrigerate and use within a week. Very tasty and easy to do

1 or two handfuls of cayenne peppers
Apple cider vinegar
Tomato paste
Lemon juice (optional)
Sea Salt

Remove stems and caps from peppers and chop into 1 inch lengths
Place into a saucepan and add enough vinegar to just cover the peppers
Simmer covered for 30 minutes, until the peppers are extremely tender
Remove from heat and allow to cool
Place peppers and vinegar into a food processor and process until smooth
Taste on a starchy carb (corn chip, bread, rice) or a cucumber slice
Add salt to taste
Add tomato paste for sweetness as well as to temper the heat to your desired taste
Add lemon juice if desired

I love the chinense peppers (habanero varieties) but they need a long season to produce. Since I'm at 48 degrees North, I gotta start them indoors in February, and take them outdoors when the spring rains quit. Then all I have to do is keep the damned deer from eating them...

I have grown a couple of crops indoors under 1k MH, works really well, but watch out for the Borg (spider mites), they love pepper plants.

Nice one, what about a 600hps? Are the conditions similar to MJ? If so, I might grow some at the side of my room during the next grow!

Yeah, they are full sun plants. Keep the soil moist but not wet. But, if you have a place outside it would be better. They do like a more intense light but so does everything else. Indoor growing keeps plants smaller and gives less yields than outdoors.

I grow tabasco's, cayennes, and habeneros In my garden. I just take fresh peppers, white vinegar, and salt blend it up and its perfect. But you could add some roasted garlic and lime juice which is perfect. However being a cook my favorite is to take habeneros, vinegar, salt & pepper than some fresh orange juice and let it simmer for a bit than blend it. You can concentrate it as much as you want and just add more vinegar if you want a sauce but I just use it as a glaze on chicken wings
