Pappy's Moonshine Madness
Heat: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

This is a great BBQ sauce for those who like it hot. Like the original Pappy's sauce, this is a great blend of tomatoes, vinegar, brown sugar, and spices. It's very good, but definitely not for the timid.

Pappy's Moonshine Madness was honored with the 2002 Best Package Award for BBQ from the National Barbecue Association (NBBQA).

Pappy's Sauce for Sissies
The barbecue guru says that even tough guys can have a hard time with a little spice -- that's why there's Pappy's Sauce for Sissies . Delicious and mild with the distinctive flavor of Pappy's XXX White Lightnin' -- but no heat. Honestly folks, Shane couldn't make it any milder and still live with himself.

Suggestions for ordering: Say "GIMME THE SISSIE SAUCE!" Say it like a man. See, it don't sound so bad that way.

How is the heat in Peppers measured?

In 1912, Wilbur Scoville, a chemist, developed a unit to measure the head in chile peppers that is still used today, the Scoville Heat Unit . His original test was a taste test where ground chile peppers are diluted in sugar water and tasted. More sugar is added until the heat can't be tasted. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the Red Savina Habanero is the hottest pepper on Earth with a rating of 570,000 SHU.

What makes the pepper hot?
Capsaicin, a crystalline alkaloid is produced by the pepper and is responsible of the heat. Capsaicin is incredibly powerful and seemingly unaffected by heat or cold so it stays potent despite cooking or freezing. Because it is colorless and odorless, it can only be measured in a laboratory.
