Bad brains peppers from whitehotpeppers. Says it's a cross between 7 pot yellow brain strain and yellow fatali. Starts off sweet, then the heat builds up around the tongue. Pretty flavorful. I would rather not eat them all on their own but I had to try at least one. Any recipe ideas?

gorgeous! 7-pots are one of my favorite. My only history with brains are Genghis Khan Brain Strain and they seemed to burn hotter than reaper - turns out different strains will affect different folks differently. My default is to make a sauce - either cooked, fermented or a mash. Dehydrating is also an idea - if you use the oven rather than a dehydrator, you will get a roasted flavor with them that will be lost in a dehydrator. You can then use these as crushed flakes for 'za or added to stews or anything really to add some heat. If dehydrating is that way you wanna go, you can take it up a notch and smoke them first. I can expand further if you'd like.

I was thinking of dehydrating some for that purpose! I like the idea of smoking them first, how do you keep them from burning?

I use my pit barrel with chunks of cherry wood soaked overnight; get my coals ready in the chimney first, dump them then place wood on top. Given the fact my rack is about a meter above the coals and the aeration I do, I can keep it at about 200F - turn pepper every 20 mins or so for about an hour. Dehydrating in the oven is simple, lowest setting (mine is 170F) on a cookie sheet for 6-16 hours depending on the size of the peppers and whether or not you leave them whole or split 'em in half (half time for halfling peppers). check on them over so often to ensure they're getting the level of 'toast' you want

Sweet!! Thank you!! I imagine the cherry wood gives it a little sweet smoke, man, that actually sounds real good now that I think about it. I like to use cherry to smoke my turkeys.
