How It's Made
The identical Three Kings recipe at roughly six times the pepper concentration—Ghost, Scorpion and Reaper, meticulously extracted, blended and tempered in our proprietary infusion, carried by natural solar-evaporated sea salt. Made in limited batches of 50.Flavor
The initial burn is slow and low, then ramps to a higher intensity—a heavy, permeating heat that lingers well after each bite. All the flavor nuance and progression of Three Kings, grittier and more deliberate. You’ll taste the Ghost first, feel the Scorpion build, and the Reaper brings it home.The Story
People kept asking for a hotter version of Three Kings. Not different—hotter. Same blend, same peppers, same process, just more of what makes it great. Hotter Stuff uses the identical Three Kings recipe at roughly 6x the pepper concentration. We made it for the customers who told us they were going through pushers too fast because they needed multiple presses to get the heat they craved. This is for them.

The Peppers
No Scoville rating on the finished salt. The heat comes from these peppers, meticulously extracted, blended and tempered in our proprietary infusion:
Ghost Pepper
1,040,000+ SHU of robust, fruity heat that spreads quickly then rests evenly on the palette, accentuating flavors and textures while incinerating tension away into the ether.
Scorpion Pepper
1,800,000+ SHU of sweet, earthy flavor with saturated depth, and a swelling, relentless sting that builds steadily, then smolders and chars throughout the body, bringing agony induced euphoria.
Reaper Pepper
2,200,000+ SHU of pungent floral aroma strikes immediately and drives stabbing, sharp heat to its violent peak intensity in an instant and then quietly tapers into a crucible of delirium.

Well, I did it. I ordered Hotter Stuff, and I can confirm that Firecracker Farms was not messing around with the name.
More kick than I thought it would have.
