The above is a snapshot taken from Columbus’ annual July 4 fireworks display, known as Red, White, and Boom. Speaking of July 4, this red, white, and blue-themed article from the Rocky Mountain News did a great job at reviewing your hot & spicy options this summer and beyond:

Spicy display ignites taste buds on the Fourth and beyond

When people ask, “Hot enough for you?” we have the answer.

Yes.

And it has nothing to do with the weather.

In honor of the Fourth of July, we’ve selected 13 hot originals - for the 13 original colonies, you history buffs - to fire up taste buds for your celebration. From piri-piri sauce to hot wings, we have a melting-pot-inspired list that will add a little heat to your summer.

How hot are they? So hot you’ll want to keep a case of cold beer or a pitcher of margaritas standing by.

Danielle Edmonds, cooking director at the Whole Foods Market at Belmar and teacher of a variety of classes, prepared some of our hot and spicy foods. Other suggestions came from the Savory Spice in Denver and Littleton and several cookbooks, including Peppers Peppers Peppers by Marlena Spieler and Hotter Than Hell by Jane Butel.
