What we tried
The Fat Gringo burger, grilled pork back ribs, short ribs, tobacco onions, Waldorf coleslaw, beef dripping chips
Verdict
Heaven for carnivores that want something beyond the ordinary.
Coming back from Trinidad & Tobago, we ‘smuggled’ in some Scorpion pepper seeds (apologies to Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs) given to us by Doug’s cousin Kristy in the hope of growing them back in the UK. If you haven’t heard of the Scorpion peppper – you can read all about it here. But essentially, it is native to Trinidad and, by most accounts, is considered the hottest pepper in the world.
The seeds came from dried pepper pods and we’re not sure how they will react to the colder and darker climate of London, but you can follow their progress with us in this series. And, hopefully, we can put up some recipes with the results!
