McKibbin’s Irish Pub offers their exclusive “Rim Reaper Challenge,” using the world’s hottest (and most expensive) pepper.
The Bhut Jolokia pepper, also known as the ghost pepper, is native to India and has a heat factor of over one million Scoville units.
McKibbin’s uses the ghost pepper as the base for its sauce, and their wings are alarmingly hot. The pub makes everyone who attempts to eat them sign a waiver to confirm they consent to eat them.
The Rim Reaper wings are so hot that customers who finish all twelve are rewarded a tee shirt and a spot on the pub’s ‘Wall of Flame.’
Be warned: we’ve seen first-hand how dangerously spicy these can be — tread lightly, they’re probably the hottest wings in Montreal.
