I have 12 chilli plants growing at the moment. I thought it might be fun considering the amount we get through.

I found this regarding the jerky:

Seizure of Goods

Chillies now we are talking.. I grew loads last year aswell lion had a really good year was growing them till December. In the end I had to give half away as I ended up with a shoe box worth of dried chillies. Was also experimenting with a few different varieties aswell. A friend of mine managed to cross breed his to a stupid hot mungrel variety which was awesome.

i'd probably lose... cause a lot of people can't stand the heat from my jalapenos

Chillies, yet another passion of mine.
Grew 16 plants last year. Still have pile of dried ones in the airing cupboard.

smells like we should have a jerky competition!

I love the stuff, nothing better than chewing on dried cured meat.
YUM YUM

Now you're talking.

As a long time lover of excellent food delicacies, I nominate, and indeed second, myself as one of those who would selflessly take on the arduous task of judging.

I'm a bit confused here. Georky is not available in ANY shops, ANYWHERE.

Georky is made exclusively by me, DBA Rev. George, and is, arguably, the finest dried meat product on planet Earth. Georky is not perishable, having a half-life of something on the order of 12 billion years, thus would be exempt from customs' ruling.

That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

I should add, for those who haven't tried it, that it's awesome!!!!

[tupacboy]

hmm... i sent out 2 packets that day... both to the uk... this one got seized... but the other one to my best friend there didn't... i wrote jerky on both...weird...

[misterbulgarin]

MMMM..............Georky...

[rokkitsci]

WTF?

What are the UK regulations regarding Georky?

Its classed as a perishable food product and therefore its not allowed to be sent.. yet saying that, you can buy it in some shops (not nice stuff) and thats imported from overseas... one rule to sell crap and another from getting decent home made stuff off mates.. as with everything else in the UK another dual standard

Very odd rule - Is it euro bollocks or did we think of that one ourselves?
