Hot Sauce - Hot sauce thread

[Ananias47]

I'm looking for a new hot sauces to try. I'm getting tired of usual stuff Frank's, Tabasco, stuff like that. My Favorite hot sauce is Valentino. If anybody has any suggestions. Or just wants to talk about their favorites. Go right ahead.

My favorite is Black Rose. Most reviews say it's a little too vinegar heavy, but I freakin' love it.

This man doesn't know about the man, the myth, the legend, the King of Kong, Billy "Big Thumbs" Mitchell and his world famous hot sauce. Let me tell you hwhat, Rickey's is a sauce for the White Man, no, the sauce for the White Man. You too can be a White Man by going to rickeyssauce.com and using the code "KARL LOST" for a spicy 10% off your next order.


In all seriousness, years and years ago I got this random habanero sauce from Trader Joes that was really good but when I went back for another at a later date, the bottle looked different and it tasted worse.

My Favorite hot sauce is Valentino.

Tapatio is the bare minimum you should consider when talking about spice and heat. Valentino is for toddlers and grandmas.

I actually do want to try Ricky's.

I'll add It to the list of hot sauces I want to try.

As an avid enjoyer of Hot Sauces myself I have a few suggestions that should give you a great taste of other stuff out there besides the usual.

1. Tabanero Original Hot sauce - This is a really good one that you can sometimes find in stores. It's pretty mild but has a really great and addictive flavor. It has red habanero peppers, carrots, onions, garlic, key lime juice, and agave nectar in it and would say it's got a pretty good sweet note. Is great on Pizza and especially Bloody Marys if you're into those. It also comes in an Extra Hot version if you want more heat.



2. Yellow Bird Habanero Hot Sauce - This one is a step up in heat and has a very unique flavor. It's rather fruity and almost tropical tasting because it contains tangerine juice concentrate. I personally find it's great on chicken and amazing on sushi and sashimi.



3. Secret Aardvark Habanero Hot Sauce - Anyone who's big into hot sauces will tell you this one's one of the best out there, and unfortunately, a bit harder to get a hold of outside of buying it online. It's often described as a Caribbean / Tex-Mex hybrid sauce and is notable for having tomatoes, fire roasted tomatoes, and tomato Juice in it. It's pretty hot but super flavorful and honestly goes great with anything you put it on, though I do find adding it to a bowl of Chili or soup will instantly make it light up with flavor in particular.



4. Melinda's Pizza Hot Sauce - This brand has a TON of sauces and many of them are pretty damn good and are often in stores so I'd suggest trying a few, in particular though their "Pizza Hot Sauce" is really fucking good as it kind of tatses like dried pepper flakes you would put on a pizza but in thick sauce form, and for obvious reasons is tastes really good on pizza.



5. Elijah's Xtreme Reaper Hot Sauce - Now I suggest this one finally because I'm unsure of what your heat tolerance is, so if it's pretty low, be careful with this one. That being said, this is one of the more unique hot sauces out there. It has the Carolina Reaper Pepper in there, which is one of the hottest peppers around, however, it also has Black Cherries, Cranberries, and Kentucky Bourbon in there, making this a pretty sweet hot sauce. So sweet in fact I would almost call it a dessert sauce, like have you ever wanted to see what spicy Ice Cream or pastries taste like? Well, this would be the sauce to try that with. For that reason, it's more niche but fun.



Don't wanna overload one post so I'll leave it at that. I hope you try and enjoy some of them.

El Yucateco's green habanero sauce is my go-to for most things, but for more American/breakfast type stuff I'll go with Tabasco.

Cholula is good if you want less heat but a lot of flavor.

Secret Aardvark is incredible. Hard recommend. Problem though is that it's quite expensive so I can't get it often.

You mariconas need to get the Fentanyl of sauces and just be careful about the dosage. One or 2 drops is enough for any dish and a bottle lasts for years. Mine is like 3 years past expiration and still tastes fine.

Is Rickey's actually good? I was tempted to try some but shipping to my distant country is triple the cost of the hot sauce.
The only hot sauces that seem to show up here in Australia are Franks, Tabasco, the usual popular stuff. But I do like trying something new.

It's good but definitely not worth paying that much for. Just a decent mild hot sauce.

 

[Ananias47]

Got this from the store the other day.. Pretty good, I kind of like it better than Tabasco. It might be my new favorite. Until I try Ricky's I guess.

i tried the hot ones chili maple hot sauce recently because it was on clearance at the walmart. honestly not a bad hot sauce. i'd buy it more if it wasnt 8 bucks for a 5oz bottle of it. even the 6 i got it for is still kinda asking much

 

[Detective Carey]

I unironically like taco bell fire sauce. It has to be in the packet though, the bottled shit at the grocery store doesn't hit the same.

 

[Maker's Mark]

Absolutely addicted to his one. I truly put it on everything.
