What's your favorite hot sauce?

[Gonzo]

The stuff I buy from the guy at the farmers market. He's got two levels of spice. The hotter one is not for the feint of heart.

I've had it. That hot one is obscene.

I don't remember if it was good but there was some local stuff called Big Daddy's that made me cry.

He had a Survivor sauce. Made you sign a waiver.

Texas Pete was a military chow hall staple. I've been hooked ever since.

Yes, this was just a drop on a toothpick.

Yep then if you'd eat a sandwich you'd win like $20k or something like that. If you lost, your "entry/sandwich" cost went to charity.

I listen to his podcast (which is very solid with good guests IMO) occasionally and hear him pimping this. Anyone tried it?

Tobasco Chipotle or Cholula

Frank's.

We use Frank's for buffalo wings. Never tried their hot sauce.

Not a fan of something that just makes food hot for the sake of it - it needs to add a whole layer to be worthy of not just canceling out other flavors.

Something I use frequently is Savory Spice's Smoky Ghost Hot Sauce.

Valentina’s

i'm a big fan of the different Yellowbird sauces/"Condiments"): Habanero, Jalapeno, and Serrano (my least favorite of the 3).

I agree. They're awesome but you better like garlic

When I was in San Diego I bought some sauce named Hot Licks. It's a cheesy name and logo, but I think their jalapeno sauce is amazing. It's not really hot, just very tasty. They have a chipotle sauce that's a little spicier and has a great smoky flavor. I still buy it to this day. They do have a ghost pepper sauce but I haven't tried that.

The original buffalo sauce when it was first developed in NY used Frank's hot sauce and butter.

Switching gears from my above recommendation to add a smokey hot sauce (Savory Spice's Smoky Ghost), if you like making stir-fry, House of Tsang makes a great Saigon Sizzle and Szechuan Spicy.

I'm don't like hot just for the sake of hot stuff so I'm by no means an expert but I really like the flavor of this stuff:

Otherwise, give me the common ones like Tabasco, Chilula, Frank's, etc. None of them are too hot and they add to whatever I want to put them on.

Absolutely love BWW's Habanero-Mango sauce. Besides putting it on my chicken wings, I use it all the time in my chili!

 

[baller21]

Not a huge hot sauce guy but I like mixing hot rotel into different dishes for a little kick.

Cholu-la is the usual standby but I like most of them.

Was at a BBQ fest last weekend. Ordered some Burgoo, then thought I popped the lid on a bottle of Frank's but actually took the top off and before I realized my mistake, dumped a couple of ounces in the soup. It wasn't bad after all.
