2018/10/08

We sat down to do an interview with Forged in Fire Champion, Spicy Mike Kerley, of Season 5 - Episode 26, Qinglong Ji! Chris had taken him to task about the whole hot sauce on a banana bit that made it on the show, and in turn Mike challenged Chris to a spice off. Poorly planned on Chris' part, he settled on a ghost pepper hot sauce while Mike went with an assortment of fresh peppers. Next time, we will coordinate so we have the same peppers. Thanks for coming on the show, Spicy Mike! Follow Spicy
