Candied Jalapeño Peppers - Cowboy Candy Recipe - Pepper Geek

[@nancybyrd2221]

HINT! Leave the stems on the peppers, using it to hold the jalapeno as you slice! Not only does that save your fingers from the peppers and knife, but you can slice closer to the stem and get an extra slice from each pepper

[@staceystrukel1917]

My mouth was water watching this. I can't even think about hot stuff without my mouth watering. So good.

[@williamwilson6887]

Last fall I made 8 cases (250ml bottles) of the recipe Chili Chump had in his video. A few weeks later I used the same recipe and made 4 more cases but used a mixture of yellow jalapeños, birds eye peppers , cayennes, Thai peppers and orange habaneros to kick up the heat. Amazing topping for burgers just under a slice of cheese. I also dehydrated a bottle of them and made a very interesting powder.

[@jasoncarlile7825]

I made your recipe it was phenomenal I went a step further and I added some clove to mine and I'm not kidding wow

[@sandhill9313]

Nice, mostly an exploration of the magic of peppers and sugar. Hot Honey has brought this more into the limelight, a perfect mix regardless of the pepper or the sugar. Love it!

[@danielpedigo72]

I bet candied Jalapenos would taste amazing on top of a ham with pineapple slices.

[@reichelsperspective6210]

Yo! That would be a good taco or sandwich

[@danielpedigo72]

@@reichelsperspective6210 oh yea. Add some candied jalapeños on an al pastor taco.

[@lilycardoso4679]

Great flavor! I use half Nadapeno and half regular jalapeños. Not as hot. I also cut sugar way back and they still taste amazing!

[@bigrickshaberdashery2759]

always puree our hot peppers with sweet bell pepper and make it thick as it's a jelly. We use green bells with green Jalapeno, red cayenne with red bells, and Golden Cayenne with yellow bells. A popular gift at x-mas around cattle country. Great year, my first Rocoto's, and finally ripening.

[@pamelapruett7833]

I love your videos on growing peppers so I used your recipe to make cowboy candy for my homegrown jalapenos I hope they are as good as you made them look

[@PepperGeek]

Hope you enjoy! They are an amazing snack - can't wait to make them again this year.

[@Steve_Gouws]

Just made this. Unfortunately couldn’t add turmeric as my partner is allergic but the 5 spice works perfectly. Soooo good. Now I’ve go tge perfect excuse to grow more jalapeños this year 😁

[@danielpedigo72]

I can say with 100% certainty, that you can replace the allspice with 1/8tsp each of Clove, Nutmeg, and Pumpkin pie seasoning. It's a little different from the allspice flavor but it taste amazing with this recipe.

[@sneek762]

I doubled this batch and put about 6 or 7 sugar rush peach and around 4 red habaneros. wow its good.

[@lmullens75]

Thanks for the idea! We have a ton of SRP, but not many jalapenos, yet.

[@christinej2358]

Never tried Cowboy candy, but I think I’ll make some. Thank you for sharing!

[@PepperGeek]

Sure thing, hope you like it!

[@eringobraugh24]

The pointier the tip of the jalapeño, the spicier. More rounded tips, the less more mild. Of course the membrane and seeds are hot. You can add the syrup to margaritas for a spicy margarita 😋💕 Add to coleslaw too, it’s amazing

[@bobcarson-ql6xk]

YOU ARE THE BEST OF COWBOY CANDY MAKING

[@TaxThisDi_k]

Fresno peppers are great this way too! I mix jalapeño and Fresno just for some great color contrast.

[@vickirickman9373]

Absolutely amazing!!!!! I literally could not stop eating it with the cream cheese and crackers 🤤😋😋 Definitely on bbq pulled pork sandwich 😋👍 The only thing I would do different on the next batch is diced up the jalapeños Thank you always

[@richardclark6496]

I recently tore through a jar of this I found at my local store, but I'm gonna try this out. I'm growing some other peppers and maybe I'll give this a shot later this summer as well:) Also that honk made me spill my coffee lmao

[@PepperGeek]

Haha ☺️ I can't wait to make some of these again once we have some fresh peppers!

[@amandahines4747]

I bet these would go great with sweet potato wedges

[@dr.magnusnyhusurgentcarebar]

I use whole all spice berries. In my personal recipe I developed from trying other recipies. I'll have to try the ginger. It sounds good but it will be fresh and cut into coins.

[@virgilbarrett3690]

I bet this would be good if you blended it and used it as a sauce

[@barbarafallin2038]

I just made a batch, they are delicious ,I added brown sugar

[@s.baldwin1840]

I save the extra syrup and put it in a margarita for some extra kick.

[@PepperGeek]

Now THERES a great idea :D

[@michaeldisalvia4438]

Thanks so good 👍

[@hntrhckr4613]

Great recipe! Turned out amazing

[@PepperGeek]

So glad you liked it!

[@ThatBritishHomestead]

This is why I’m growing chillies this year 😜

[@PepperGeek]

Nice! These are so tasty - can't wait to have more.

[@ThatBritishHomestead]

@@PepperGeek I love sweet chill and this will be a step up but homegrown chillies. That will burn goood

[@HabberLabberDK]

This looks so delicious! Any tips on recipes with Carolina Reapers? First year I grow hot peppers and really have no idea on what to do with these super hots 😅

[@PepperGeek]

For superhots, we usually make powder for rubs, ferment into basic mash (that can be used to make sauces/pastes later), or make fresh hot sauce/salsa

[@heatherbrunette2685]

I’m growing peppers for fun but have no idea what to do with them when they are ready. I need recipes lol. Do you have to use apple cider vinegar for this?

[@juliewood823]

Awesome 😀👍🏽

[@hoosnabanoodhansay7161]

Hi I just watched your video maybe you should use the whole all spice, I am going to try it.

[@reichelsperspective6210]

Would adding bacon crumbles change the shelf life?

[@caseykittel]

have you ever just dehydrated your jalapeños? such an amazing snack!

[@russellt9059]

What would your recipe be for a pint jar

[@PepperGeek]

I would double this recipe and that should be close

[@johnparker4925]

Could you use some white wine vinegar for an extra layer of flavor??

[@hovavrom]

Can you do this with every pepper? Will it be good with habanero peppers for example?

[@PepperGeek]

I think it is best for thick-walled varieties, so habaneros may not have the same satisfying crunch. But hey, why not find out?

[@timo57890]

A friend of mine makes it with habeneros and his hab cowboy candy sells really well do totally possible imo

[@aubreybates7373]

I noticed you didn't can these do you need to refrigerate these or can you leave them in the cabinet

[@PepperGeek]

Refrigerate

[@marka9292]

Are you sitting of just really short? No judgment just curious

[@PepperGeek]

😂 sitting down, but also not super tall

[@laurafrey5244]

My serranos and jalapenos are mixed. Should I got for it? Or are the serranos to much heat?

[@PepperGeek]

I don't think there is _too_ much of a difference, but yes serranos are hotter..up to you!

[@laurafrey5244]

Thanks. I went for it!!!

[@jordanyeager9220]

Would cowboy Candy taste good on nachos ?

[@PepperGeek]

I can only imagine they would...as long as you like sweet and spicy 😈

[@anthonysmith1556]

After canning you don’t heat again for 15 -20 minute’s

[@nonnybrooks2958]

You need to smoke the peppers. That's what makes it "cowboy" candy......

[@lilycardoso4679]

Has anyone done this with the seeds and membranes removed? I don't want them to be too spicy.

[@PepperGeek]

Just FYI, the sugar content realllly dumbs down the heat. However, I'm sure they'd taste just as good with the placentas gone

[@anniei1842]

I did these for a friend’s husband and he said they weren’t that hot. But maybe try a couple of small batches first. One with, one without. My friends husband loved them! I’m making him another batch😂

[@zeruty]

If you grow peppers, grow one of the mild jalapeno varieties. Like tam

[@lilycardoso4679]

@@zeruty I did grow Tam. Next year I'm growing nadapenos. They came out really good with the seeds removed, but it takes longer.

[@zeruty]

@@lilycardoso4679 cool. I'm glad there are options like those even if they're not for me.

[@lilycardoso4679]

Mine came out hotter than hell. And no crunch, maybe I cut them too thin.

Нажаль я не вивчала в школі англійську тому нерозумію що ви говорите... в описі не написаний рецепт можна було б скористатися перекладачем... не продумано... тобто не розраховано на іншу не англомовну авдиторію

[@MrEMan-cy5kl]

Isn't allspice Jamaican?

[@sasinsweden9737]

In Sweden we use what we call "piffi allspice", its one of the most common spice blends in swedish food

[@swyntopia]

"candied" ???? It´s just pickled.... Or am I in error ??????

[@jeremyvanhorn2645]

Pickled would mean there’s no sugar. He boiled the apple cider Vinegar with sugar to make a tangy sweet syrup therefore they become “candied”

[@carfvallrightsreservedwith6649]

Food processor slicing blade makes FAST work of going through the peppers. Not all will be pretty little discs but who cares? At some point playing Martha Stewart in the kitchen seems foolish. You approach it more like Larry the Cable Guy....., "Git 'er done!!!.
