I get all my spices from SpiceHouse. They have a good selection of fancy peppers including Tellicherry and Kampot peppercorns.

+1 for the unicorn, although I might just have to pick up the pepper cannon as it seems to improve on the only thing I dislike about the unicorn , it feels cheap, despite being very well constructed.

My parents had one of these for about 25 years, and I've had mine for 20.

That being said, for large quantities at very fast pace… the cannon can't be beaten. As an example. I like to freshly crack peppercorns for my bbq and even a good quality battery operated one was not getting the job done in a reasonable amount of time. With the pepper cannon, I can produce the quantities needed in short order.
I just posted this on another thread... The Alton Brown pepper mill hack.
I do this at home if I'm peppering a lot of food.. using my $5 plastic pepper grinder just like in this picture. The 'axle' if you will is 4 sided so a drill can grip it just like a drill bit.
It can go fast as hell on a high drill speed. I can fill up a ramekin in no time.



So yes, that $200 thing can be beaten, for a tiny fraction of the cost.

That's like a dude with a rusted '89 fox body Mustang with drag wheels and a blower bragging it's faster than a new Porsche. Mkkkay

lofeckingl.. it is just like that isn't it!

I don't know how you don't think a drill spinning a pepper grinder wouldn't be fast.

I'm sure you all know better than Alton brown.

But hey if you want to spend $200 on a pepper grinder who am I to judge, I'm sure it will look great next to your $400 yeti skillet.

I know it probably works. I only own a cheap pepper grinder myself anyway. I just grind it separately and store in a sealed container.

But I'm trying to imagine my wife's face when I bust out the old DeWalt cordless at the dinner table.

I don't prepare meat for cooking at the dinner table. If someone needs so much pepper on their cooked food that they get tired of grinding the el cheapo mill then I've failed as a cook.

I'm an lol poor, so I just buy the salt and pepper at sams that comes in the grinders there. I do like having a salt grinder to control the coarseness of the salt

I got my Pepper Cannon in last week and it is amazing. Love how fast it puts out pepper and the absolutely SOLID feel.
