The Staten Island Advance recently sent reporter Shane DiMaio to check out the Ghost Chili Pepper Wings Challenge at Lunchbox in Westerleigh. Dubbed the Deathwish, the challenge is quite intense:
6 Buffalo style wings marinated in our spicy hot sauce, mixed with super hot red chipotle chilies, and finished off with our Hellraiser Habanero Ghost Chili extract. (Ghost Chilies are down in the Guinness Book of World Records for being the hottest peppers in the world.) Our double whammy: not only do you have to eat this in 10 minutes using no utensils and no napkins, you also cannot have anything to drink until 10 minutes after you have consumed the last wing.
Check out the video to see if DiMaio completed the challenge or not.
