I am stoked. They showed one of my favorite spots first. El Guero Cañelo. I once talked about Sonoran style hotdogs on here. They are amazingly good.

BK's is every bit as good as El Guero Cañelo.

Come to Tucson. We got great eats here.

Next they talk about Lindy's on 4th Ave. That's the burger I may go try.

I know almost all the farmers in that area. That is my neck of the woods. The chilis from the Luna family farms are the hottest, and therefore the best IMO.

I buy a years supply every fall when they start roasting---always run out and have withdrawals before the new crop

I hate spicy food......but I want to take my sister to Chunky's here in San Antonio. I want to buy her the 4 Horseman Burger and watch her eat it....maybe even video tape it.

absolutely love spicy food! i've recently discovered a hot creole sauce that has scotch bonnet chillis in it. really improves chips (fries), onion rings, salad etc

I just got back from trying the burgers at Lindy's. They are okay. Not the best I have had in Tucson, but okay.

You come this way and I will tell you the best places to visit for sights and eats.

Just bought my folks a gift certificate to a place called Vivace's on Campbell Ave. Unlike sweaters or CDs, you can't go wrong with food.

That's one white trash family.

Great show, though. Rick (the bald guy) blows me away with his knowledge, sometimes. I also love it when they restore old items.

P.S. Chumlee for President!

I have heard good things about that place. Never tried it.

It defeated me. But I am planning on trying it again at some point in the future. I think I went about it all wrong when I tried it.

I could do it - guaranteed.

Just an FYI. I buy several pounds of roasted Hatch chilies at Central Market every year.

I split them open pole-to-pole, seed them, then lay them out flat on a foil-lined cookie sheet. Put them in a low oven, no higher than 175-200.

Let them dry completely, usually takes 2 hours at least, then use a spatula or such to scrape them up. Voila, Hatch Chili Dust.

Use it in rubs for smoking, seasoning steaks and chicken, or to sprinkle in any number of things. Be forewarned though, it can be hot as hell, and a little goes a long way.

Got to try that --I make everything I eat with green chilis--except I add ground red chili to my pizza --Flour tortilla -smoke provolone cheese and a whole roasted green chili 15 seconds in microwave --you will be addicted in one bite

Oh yeaaaa, I do a version of that, makes great "out da dam doe" food. I call 'em "nuclear queso-dealers".
