Excaliber’s recommendation was right on point. I used 1 oz of habanero powder to a half a bag of the Honey BBQ snack sticks mix. Turned out awesome. Had basically the same heat level at the Habanero BBQ and the Habanero Lime mixes.
Honey Crisp Apples lose their crown

Am I the only one that HATES small apples? I love when I find apples that are the size of a small grapefruit. Hoping these little bees are large enough for my manly hands

Dr_Pain Most Honeycrisps crosses all share their larger size, of course we probably get the largest of them here since the growers are so close and those larger size apples are not considered usually grade A marketable since they send a lot to foreign markets like Japan as well.

johnsbrewhouse I tried a Cosmic Crisp last year for the first time. It was awesome.

johnsbrewhouse That is one pretty apple. If it tastes half as good as it looks, that is good. Perfect size too.

always good to see what comes out and newest flavor of the time

GWG8541 They are really good, I got four apples off the tree this year. It’s still small and a survivor (my dog ate the top off it after I first planted it). These tree’s were hard to get at first with limits on who could get them and how many and pricey for the size. They are more disease resistant than some, but I still have to watch for apple maggot, so they have to be treated and the ground treated to prevent the fly larvae from hatching in the spring.

johnsbrewhouse my local grocery had Cosmic Crisp in again last week. Man are they good. I think they are my new favorite in the apple world.

Jonathon Never heard of them but I do like Honeycrisps and Fujis, so if these are better, they must be fantastic. I will definitely keep my eye out for them.

bocephus You should be seeing them now, they are a late apple, so the release them to stores in November for fresh sales. They will also be available longer since the keep long being breed especially for that market.

johnsbrewhouse Next time I run to the grocery store I will look for them, interested in what could knock off the honey crisp.

bocephus The Cosmic Crisp is a cross between a Honey Crisp and Enterprise. It was developed by Washington State University at the request of the growers to replace some of the Delicious varieties whose shelf life and refrigeration life is poor. I was able to get two trees for my home early being a resident of Washington, mine just started producing this last summer. Originally the seedlings could not be distributed outside the state of Washington until the commercial distribution was established.
