Dave’s Hot Chicken Reaper. This is as far as I got. I laughed at the idea of this being “too spicy”. GG Dave’s

  1. babe wake up there’s another dave’s hot chicken post in r/spicy!

    in all seriousness, yeah. this shit is hot as fuck. lol.

  2. substantiallyImposed

    I got a tender and ate it over the course of a day

  3. camerasoncops

    I wonder how much chicken goes in the trash each year from this sandwich lol

  4. DeartayDeez

    Just tried extra hot yesterday good heat not unbearable pondering weather or not to try the reaper

  5. PurpsTheDragon

    When I first tried it I felt like it being too spicy was a joke or something, I took a bite or two and I was fine, then the heat kicked in. I managed to finish the entire thing but I drank like a gallon of water.

  6. DrkrBobBrkr

    Looks hella delicious. Ima have to travel to try this spice, but it looks worth it.

  7. Steampunk_Batman

    I housed one of these while kind of drunk. Pissed fire the next morning. 10/10 would do again

  8. InspectorFadGadget

    The sad thing about Dave’s is that the chicken itself is delicious and cooked great, but they ruin it with the powdery as fuck spice mix on the outside. Why is it so powdery?? Completely throws off the texture for me.

  9. Benny_Baseball

    This is where I drew the line. Couldn’t do it.

  10. spicygarlic505

    I looks like a piece of magma in a bun. I’d totally try this

  11. brbenson999

    I eat the extra hot, but I get the reaper tender every now and then. It’s hot but can’t finish it hot?? No way.

  12. ScreamingNinja

    Did it taste good at least. Mine was not spicy but also didn’t taste great.

  13. WhaleSexOdyssey

    Yup I did this exact thing. Wasn’t upset at all I’m impressed and respect when someone can actually fucking deliver.

  14. Stormygeddon

    I think it varies by location. I swallowed one sandwich whole without much of a second thought.

  15. R2-D2savestheday

    Very spicy! But yummy! I got the 2 tenders and ate the first one half at a time, the bread and pickles helped a bit. I ate the second tender with sour cream 😅

  16. scottwardadd

    I’ve gotten these twice with some tenders and agree they’re pretty damn hot but really not worth it. It’s just their next hottest with ground up reaper powder on it.

    Might as well just buy a shaker of reaper powder and make your own, or buy, better tasting chicken to sprinkle it on.

  17. NotMarkDaigneault

    I powered thru one and wanted to die half way through 🤣

  18. Visible_Turnover3952

    How does it compare to the hottest sauce at Buffalo Wild Wings ?

  19. I just finished eating Dave’s for the first time.

    Had a medium and a hot as I was scared of everything I read about on reddit. It wasn’t really spicy.

    Made me want to come back and get a very spicy and a reaper

  20. DeathTripper

    I tried Hot last time (and also, it was my first time at Dave’s). Extra hot probably would have been a sweet spot for me, as the hot was spicy, but almost underwhelming.

    I didn’t want to shit myself in the middle of a Broadway show, so I erred on the side of caution. My wife got medium, and she probably could have done a hot, despite not being on her spicy game.

  21. SomewhereintheBTW

    Did it taste good? I can push through intense heat if its otherwise delicious.

  22. Musefan58867

    I ate an entire one right before high speed go karting and got the fastest lap for the day because I needed to get to the bathroom that badly

  23. disguyman

    I took a bite and realized how spicy it was and then proceeded to gobble it all down quickly. First and last time eating that

  24. DrkrBobBrkr

    Lemme look up the recipe, I’ll cook it up.

  25. SlimJim0877

    I want to eat this because I’m very confident that I can handle the heat going in, but I don’t like the idea of what that the next day will be like.

  26. theAlphabetZebra

    The spiciest guy I know was sweating and crying and actually admitting it was hot. So, like, I’m good with that lol

  27. SpicyWokHei

    I tried it.  Ate it in one sitting. It’s hot for the sake of being hot. It honestly doesnt even taste good. I wish I got a more mild flavor to actually taste the chicken instead of just straight reaper powder.

  28. fro_khidd

    I got 2..finished the 1st one “wow not that bad”

    Ate the 2nd at work, I had to drop everything and sit in the cold basement and cry a little

  29. Skysoldier173rd

    And they taste like shit. If it’s gonna be “F you” hot, at least make it delicious

  30. ScallyWag-Idiot

    My hole has never been the same since I day I ate one of those reaper tendies

  31. Lobotomite430

    I ate the whole reaper the heat built fast on my tounge but faded pretty fast. The heat lingered in my stomach for a long while after. Idk it was ok, hot to be hot not much flavor and i didnt care much for the grainy rub.

  32. sneakypete23

    Had my first one last week. Ate all but the last two bites when I came to my senses and realized I didn’t need to torture myself further.

    Legit hottest thing I’ve tried eating and had mild stomach cramps the following 12 hours or so. Glad I ordered it, might try again in a year haha

  33. claremontmiller

    I generally do an extra hot and a reaper, I don’t know if the Dave’s I eat at is staffed by cowards or if I’m dead inside, it doesn’t seem that hot. I’m beginning to suspect that reaper may vary wildly by location

  34. Headlyheadlly

    Early on in the days of cheaper DoorDash, I had a mate order this same thing from a similar spot (more local in name, same ish reaper pepper stuff). They had a waiver, the dasher never mentioned it, the suffering was immense

  35. AZDiver_96

    All these people talking about microdosing or eating it slowly is wild to me. If you’re gonna drown it in sauce or eat it in small bits you’re not even enjoying the flavor at that point. Just get a less hot version that you can actually fucking eat. Not to mention shit like this is just straight heat, hardly any flavor.

  36. bigbrownbanjo

    How is the Very Hot? I’ve been thinking about trying it

  37. When made correctly, it’s genuinely not edible.

  38. NewSpringMoney

    I’ve eaten the reaper tender a couple of times. Each time it was a battle both during and after. I now go a couple levels down to enjoy myself
