This is something I concocted at home one night. My husband is a super big spicy guy, and things can't get hot enough for him. I threw this together and it turned out sooooooooo good. Adjust seasonings to your comfort level. You get a huge kick of heat, but it's like a flavor explosion in your mouth. Hope ya like it. I have a cast iron hoe cake sort of pan. It's got 6 small rectangles in it, and it made 10 small cakes. But feel free to just dump it in your cast iron skillet and cook!
