As our Man V Food Crowd psyche themselves up for tomorrow’s chicken wing food challenge at The Red Dog Saloon in Hoxton, we have come up with the top 5 things to conquer the ‘Naga Viper Chilli Wings!’  6 pieces of chicken in ten minutes without a drink. This challenge is the UK’s hottest & it’s pretty famous.

Wikipedia – The Naga Viper was created in England by chilli farmer Gerald Fowler of The Chilli Pepper Company. It is an unstable three-way hybrid produced from the Naga Morich, the Bhut Jolokia and the Trinidad Scorpion (some of the world’s hottest peppers). The Naga Viper pepper, with its rating of 1,382,118 Scoville Heat Units was the official holder of the Guinness World Records “World’s Hottest Chilli” record as of 25 February 2011.

5 Tips To Eating Spicy Foods:

1. Chew as little as possible.

2. Try to strip the meat with your fingers into smaller pieces so you can swallow whole.

3. Hard I know but try and keep the chillis as far away as possible from the skin in your mouth.

4. Chew some ice before the challenge as ice numbs the taste buds.

5. Interrupt your taste buds by eating some bread or crackers. As you aren’t allowed to drink anything during the challenge, take a box of Jacobs crackers.

Join the table there are still a couple of seats left. If you don’t fancy taking on the chicken wings, how about coming along for some front row seats and enjoy some authentic Texan BBQ food: London’s Hottest Wings Challenge! 

Good luck
