Got these because I love super spicy food and jarred pickled items. Started eating them and at first was like “wow delicious!” Then after about 5 I was like “WOW these are actually hot”. Definitely in the rotation, great with a tuna melt btw.

Seconded I’ve been in love with these ever since I discovered them a few years ago, I use them instead of Pepperoncinis. Great in salads and sandos. They have more kick than you’d expect. Good crunch and pickle flavor. They’re a lot better than most store bought pickled items.
I have a habit of eating them straight.
I love these things! I also think they are pretty hot! I’m sure some here would call us babies though. haha I have replaced pepperoncinis with these as I like them more and fill the same nich for me.
Pretty much every pizza I order, I mince a few of these and sprinkle it on.
If you’re on the west coast, you can ask for these on your in-N-Out burger. I’ve never turned back. Say “add chillies” Thank me later
They are so good, I like to pop a couple at a time as a little spice snack
So spicy!
If you like the flavor of these, you can use them as a base to make killer pickled eggs. Google the recipe for Popa’s pickled eggs, they’re simple to make. The eggs don’t pick up the heat very well, but the peppers give them a great flavor.
That’s the only brand of pepperoncini I have ever had.
How much better is out there, gentlemen?
One of my top brands.
I personally keep the stock in rotation at my local Krogers lol

I think these are even better…..and spicier!
I love these. Are these called sport peppers in some places? They taste similar if not the same
Amazing to see this post. I bought these for the firtst time a few a months ago and couldn’t believe how hot they were too!
They got me 2.
Love mezzeta jalapeños eat them by them self but I have yet to find these anywhere near me!
I haven’t seen these for sale in over a decade, used to buy them religiously. Now to try and source a jar.
I love the tangy, vinegar pop on these sumbitches. I eat them between bites of my cheeseburger
The best part is that you never know what you’re about to bite into with these. They can be anywhere from mild to ungodly hot. Usually what gets me isn’t the heat but how sour they can be.
When you realized how hot they were did you say “I don’t ever wanna feel like I did that day”
See i gotta say those and some of the others brands are strange somedays I can eat a whole jar as if they were Clausen pickles and then some i eat a couple and feel my asshole pucker.. idk why especially when I like fresh habaneros and make a homemade hotsauce that’s about as hot as scorpion pepper sauces from Melinda’s or Tabasco brand
i love these. great kind of spicy where you just get a nice vinegary bite but it doesn’t linger.
These are tasty, always have them when in Cali
Some of my favorites. They even have little pickles, marinated and spicy juice. I’ll get one right now.
Tuna melt… what a great idea.
We eat these whenever we get together in my culture. Also at weddings. These are also garlicky, right? I always loved them.
I bartend and I muddle them on the weekends for the early morning bloody Mary’s type folk! If you know you know
These look exquisite
Those are fucking delicious
It really depends on the jar. I’ve had some that are lethal and others that were much milder.
Yummy
I mean, it says hot twice. Once in the name and again to reiterate.
Go through a jar of these a week, juice and all!! The best
