Our Cayenne is hotter than others
Cayenne peppers are a group of tapering, 10 to 25 cm long, generally skinny, mostly red-colored peppers, often with a curved tip and somewhat rippled skin, which hang from the bush as opposed to growing upright. Most varieties are generally rated at 30,000 to 50,000 Scoville units, but not ours.
Through carefully selective breeding, we raised the Scoville Units of our Cayenne to 100,000. That means you can use half (or less) of our Cayenne Pepper Powder, to get the same effect as a full serving of the other guy's. Its like getting double the amount of product in the same 5lb jug.
- Please keep the lid tight firmly into place when not in use.
- Please exercise caution when handling this product.

Perfect as an addition to any type of dish, seasoning or rub mix, and effective as an all-natural way of keeping undesirable animals from coming around, our Pappy's Fine Foods' Cayenne Pepper will give you the heat you're looking for!
Bring On the Heat.
The active ingredient in cayenne peppers that gives them their spiciness is a chemical compound called capsaicin. Scoville Heat Units is the method of measuring the amount of capsaicin in a pepper. While other cayenne pepper powders range between 30,000 and 50,000 Scoville Heat Units, Pappy’s Cayenne Pepper Powder measures 100,000 - so you get twice the potency in the same volume of powder.
Hot. Fresh. Delicious.
Ground cayenne pepper powder is an all natural way of adding heat to any dish and it can also be used to keep animals far away from lawns, posts, fences or gardens. It wont burn your grass or any vegetation when applied directly to the soil.
Quality Since 1985.
It was back in 1985 when we first launched our first product, Pappy's Choice Seasoning - and we're still selling this exact same seasoning blend today. Besides offering this 100,000 SHU Cayenne Pepper Powder, we have dozens of seasoning and sauce blends, and now we're proud of offering our first smoked salt, and we can't wait to hear what you think of it!
