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.

I absolutely love fruity hot sauces, hopefully I can find a bottle!

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.

You can try making your own hot sauce.

Example recipe:
Water
Peppers
Other hot things

I usually like to use either Tapatio or Cholula as a casual hot sauce if I got tired of Tabasco. Sriracha is also a good alternative.

I bought a bottle of J's Raisin the Bar, and while I wasn't immediately a fan by the time I finished the bottle I was in love. It's more expensive than I'd normally spend on hot sauce so I haven't bought another bottle yet and might want to try to make my own, but it's the only hot sauce I currently have bookmarked for when I want to splurge.

I've got a bottle of Yellow Bird's Habanero as well. I like it well enough and certainly better than the other Yellow Bird sauces I've tried. But I occasionally hit on a habanero sauce I really love, forget what it's called, then spend a year or two rolling the dice on new ones until the cycle repeats. (I've started taking photos of my hot sauce bottles to avoid this happening in the future)

Tabasco scorpion is the goat. It’s nowhere near as hot as truly hot sauces, but by normie standards it’s downright infernal. It does have that slightly bitter aftertaste, but that’s unavoidable with sauces that contain superhot peppers or extracts.

This one is pretty good. Flavor is excellent but fairly typical for habanero sauces that use a lot of carrot in them. Heat is decent but not unbearable.

My dad got me this and a bunch of other Tabasco stuff recently after he went to Louisiana. Oddly enough, I hadn't tried Tabasco until he got me all set up. Thanks, Dad. Now I'm obsessed with Family Reserve.

This is some really good budget hot sauce for if you want both spice and flavor.

Put it on a grilled cheese earlier, tastes amazing.

I'll second Yellow Bird, their blue agave flavor is really good if you like sweet and spicy. Highly recommend.

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

I'm sad because I can't find Cholula's chili lime sauce any more, but they have a tequila & lime that's pretty good. I like putting it in the rice cooker when I do rice, it's better if you cook the alcohol out of it.

There's an Aussie brand called Bunsters that's good, but you might have trouble finding them in the states. They do bite though, their Shit the Bed sauce is not misnamed. Their green and gold sauce is good.

On the left, fermented red jalapeños and tomatoes, blended with passion fruit honey and lime juice.

On the right fermented habs and bell pepper, blended with strawberry. Mango, honey and lime juice.

Fermented hot sauces you make yourself are the best hot sauces

Torchbearer Garlic Reaper


I fried some wings and tossed them with like a quarter of the bottle. The reaper flavor goes great with fried food like wings. The garlic is a nice touch, It’s a really good sauce, but like all sauces based on Carolina reapers it has a strong flavor that can easily overpower a meal. 10/10 on wings tho.

That said, I’m still recovering from that meal.

I'm fermenting again. Habs, yellow pepper and a ripe jalapeño I had lying about. This is after five days. You can see the CO2 throwing off and the amount of funkiness in the jar.

Gonna give it at least two more weeks to see what happens. Then it's getting blended with passion fruit.

Yeah there's a guy in the UK who makes a passion fruit sauce and it's the business.

I made a jalapeño and passion fruit sauce a couple weeks ago, this will just be its big brother.
