Wife and I went decided to get hot pot for dinner last night. I started with the Szechuan soup base, then proceeded to add every single hot pepper, seasoning, sauce and oil they had. Here’s the result before digging in.

Mk, two questions.
1. How was it? It looks like just the right amount of painfully tasty.
2. Where did you get the soup base? Please tell me it isn’t a local place that I’ll never be near!

I hope your partner likes it just as spicy. At least that way, you two can play battleshits after date night dinner.

I’m catching up with all the comments and such, but here’s some more information, as well as a little context as to my spice tolerance and how spicy this dish was.
This is indeed a local place in my hometown. We hardly have any hot pot places, and they just opened a second location near our neighborhood several months ago, so we’ve been there half-a-dozen times or so. I always get the Szechuan soup base and add tons more spice to it, but this was the first time I literally took everything they had that was labeled “spicy” and threw it in the pot. Now, as for how spicy it was, we need a scale most people in this sub can look at and immediately understand (more or less).
I’ve been a fan of spicy food since my preteen days, and I’m in my late 30s now. I add Reaper/Ghost Pepper/Scorpion sauces to most meals I have, even if it’s only a drop or two (will add more depending on the exact dish, of course). I’ve watched many Hot Ones episodes (and have a whole lot of their sauces in my hot sauce shelf in our fridge), and I know I could eat the wings/sauces they have on just about every episode without being fazed all that much (and I know I’m far from the only one in this sub who could probably do so).
So, what about a scale? Well, unfortunately I’ve never had the pleasure (or displeasure) of eating at Dave’s Hot Chicken, because there isn’t a location anywhere near where we live. However, there is a Hattie B’s near our neighborhood as well, and I always eat there once every two weeks or so, and my usual order consists of 3 tenders or wings, Damn Hot, along with one extra wing or tender on the side that’s Shut the Cluck Up. I always start with the Shut Cluck Up wing/tender, then dig into the Damn Hot wings/tenders. As anyone who has eaten at Hattie B’s, or really any hot chicken establishment, knows, the level of extreme heat on the hottest offerings can vary depending on the day and/or location, so some days the STCU at the Hattie B’s near us is exactly what you’d expect, and sometimes it’s still incredibly fucking hot, but not quite the STCU you’d expect.
With that as a reference point, let’s say the ideal extreme spiciness of Shut the Cluck Up at Hattie B’s is a 10 on our 1-10 spicy scale for the dish I’ve posted here today. I’d say this dish was probably a 6 or 7/10 on that scale. It was indeed very, very spicy, but it does probably look spicier than it was. Still, it’s definitely not something people who aren’t fans of spicy food could tolerate even a single bite of, and even those who “sometimes” enjoy “kind of” spicy food would be pushing the bowl away and ordering something else the moment any part of this touched their lips. Most importantly, however, it was delicious.
And yes, about three hours after I finished, I required a sudden bathroom trip to expel the hellfire demons from the deepest recesses of my bowels, but it wasn’t anything crazy. Didn’t take long to exorcise the evil from my intestines, only a very mild sting on the way out, and a much shorter and even easier exorcism to banish the rest this morning.

Hot pot for sure

I tried Szechuan for the first time at my local hot pot and was coughing from the first tiny taste. I’ve had lots and lots and lots of very very spicy food in my life but I’ve never tasted a spice with that sensation. It took my breath away. I loved it, I wanna do it again!
cheesenpeasplease
Same! We had a birthday hotpot last night and they had to give me my own pot. They had diced Thai peppers at the topping bar! so I put a bowl of it in my broth

Sure hope you took the Pepto Prepto before tucking into that.

I may be just getting too old, but I dont think I’ll do Szechuan hotpot base again. I dont exactly mind the heat, but eating hot soup, with a really high spice level just destroys me now. I have trouble enjoying any of the things I put in it just because the szechuan just dominates every flavor. All power to ya if you like it though, I don’t envy your gastrointestinal tract after this outing.

It will remain so unchanged through your body, you could eat it again!
MagnesiumKitten
do you think you can do a list of every seasoning, spice, pepper, and oil used?
I love the color, I’m not sure if you need Immodium and Di-Gel before dining though
