Best Hot Link?

[XYZ]

Pick up one of about three brands of tolerable quality and take them home to slap on the grill or toss in the smoker.

Don’t get too excited about which because we all know what they’re made of.

I prefer the ghost pepper’s over all hot peppers. Nice smoky flavor and they don’t have that oily burn that last more than a minute or two.

I have heard that but my only experience with a ghost pepper was pure heat. Thought I could strip chrome with it.

Schwab's are generally my go to link just because of availability. BUT, I was in WinCo(Moore) yesterday and guess I'll be trying some Mountain View.

I'm going to add to what some others have said - these have a great flavor and snap when biting but IMO they are NOT hot. I put them on the smoker along with a Schwab's hot link and the Schwab's was hands down the more spicy. Side note: they all got eaten!

Maybe I'll stick with Braum's Hot Links, they are the bomb.

I picked up some Mountain View hot links today at Homeland. A five pack was $5.99. They had three types but I just got the regular version.

I'll most likely have them for dinner tonight and I will give my review on them.

Patiently waiting on this...

Mountain View are my favorite. every BBQ place in this area serves them. They are pretty readily available at all the grocery stores as well and they are fairly local. So I don’t really give anything else a chance.

I just got back home for the third time this evening. After a beer and a cool down I'll cook some up.

If you (or anyone) has a package of Braun’s in the ‘fridge … check the package and share what you see for the “Establishment Number” is on the package. It will say “EST” and then a number. This number indicates what USDA meat plant the product is made at. Curious to know who makes their links.

I'll be surprised if it's not Scwabs.
