Some of the most powerful are Habiñero peppers. Many supermarkets have them now - they look like tiny orange pumpkins!
Do you realize how easy and fun they are to grow in your own pots?

You can buy Habanero ground pepper at like pepper specialty stores. The Red Savina Habanero (570,000 scoville units) variety is said to be the hottest (containing the most capsacin), and there are also companies that make Habanero essence, just the oil from the peppers, which can hit 910,000 scoville units. The peppers when dried and are ground can be much hotter than the fresh. Puree is extremely hot too.
To give an idea how hot those are: Tabasco sauce is 2,000.

What kind of peppers are you looking for? This is what kind of gets under my skin when recipies refer to peppers but not by name! If your looking for something that will burn a hole in your throat going down, Jalapenos are okay but Habaneros-with those all you need is just a sliver because those are killers and not cheap! You should be able to get those at any market. The thing with chili peppers is that you just don't know if they're actually going to be hot or not. I've bought Jalapenos only to be disappointed and the same with the Yellow Peppers (Chile Gueritos), but the Habaneros will never disappoint!

As far as something really hot goes, I think you may be it. And belly dancing too. Tell you what, I'll get the hotest peppers known to man and be right over. \
No, seriously, I see Habaneros all the time at the better grocery stores. There's no need to look for anything hotter since it's all relative when your mouth is already on fire.

Lets put it this way. One Habenero to a gallon of chili is usually enough for most folks. Put two or three in if you really like it hot but I doubt many others will join you. When you cant taste the food for heat, then you not eating, you committing self torture.
I grow Habeneros, chilies and Jalapenos and then I dry the chili and Habeneros. I give the Habeneros away. Guess I'm too much of a Norte Americano.

Saint Charles, Mo. There is a store on Historic Main street in Saint Charles that has about 900 selections and they are displayed in the store according to their degree of "hotness". An interesting item here is that the top 13 or so require a written and signed disclaimer to purchase. (They can be quite lethal). Seriously. I bought a bottle that was in the 15 or so range. One drop in a tomato beer sent my friend straight to the showers....literally, he was sweating profusely and couldnt keep enough water in his mouth.

You can buy really hot peppers in a Latin or Asian grocery stores. They have those small red peppers you find in Thai food.
Now a days many large chain supermarkets also carry ethnic foods and produce and have really hot peppers.

In America the hottest you can get is a Scotch Bonnet (Habinero) just becarefull when cuting them wear gloves because they will burn you hands, especially when touching the membrane and seeds because they are the hottest parts. And when subsituting for recipies, 2 Jalapenos = 1 habinero

Where do you live?
Most supermarkets carry hot peppers .... try scotch bonnet peppers - they're way at the top of the scoville scale!
